Wayne Rooney demands immediate transfer!

Re: Wayne Rooney demands immediate transfer!

I got this in the January Window of my first season. Granted I was in 5th at the time... No worries though sold his *** for 51 million pounds. Got Neymar as his replacement. The board did let me choose if I wanted to keep him though. I had already accept Madrid's bid though.

He does have a family to feed after all. And a barber to pay off.

Possibly some bets that his dad and uncle made in the Spanish league that they didn't pay off as well.

Reload. It may take several reloads but I had the same experience with Messi. Reload several times (6) and then the news stated that he wanted to leave but an injury was going to keep him there. Though, he was not and was never injured.

Just play it out. The game seems to be programed for these random reactions by the big stars. I also played it out (simmed through transfer season) before I did the reload thing.
Once, I received no request so he ended up staying.
Once I stalled long enough through transfer period that he stayed.
Tried to praise him through the press and he stayed. Though I also did not get any offers one time.
Once I saw the results could be random I decide to reload. I was about to give up when it finally said he was hurt and would stay.

I was also going to try and renegotiate his contact but did not get around to it.

It seems to be part of the game and I only assume that there has to be a way to keep the player. What is the point of playing this game if your best players are all going to leave and there is nothing you can do about it.

Re: Wayne Rooney demands immediate transfer!

At this point there doesn't seem to be any way around it. I tried signing him to a ridiculous contract, he accepted and 2 days later on the 25th he still demanded to be sold.

Tried reloading at least 15-20 times and I just can't avoid it from it happening.

I always get offers from Barca and Real Madrid and refuse them but on deadline day my Board sells him for around $40M. Real made an $89M offer which I'll probably just end up taking and go after Messi.

What's annoying is the fact that his status goes from 'very happy' to wanting to leave in 1 day. I could understand if his morale was low or I wasn't playing him but it's just completely random. Hopefully the patch adresses this as Messi and Rooney shouldn't be requesting transfers in your 1st or 2nd season.

Maybe the coach sexually assaulted his girlfriend in those two days.

Re: Wayne Rooney demands immediate transfer!

I'm sure it's annoying for you but I think this is great lol. Would love more things like this in franchise modes in other games. Not too often though.

Re: Wayne Rooney demands immediate transfer!

You guys would not like football manager.

I think stuff like this is cool as well, though I have no idea if it is overdone. And if EA is being EA, it probably is.

I don't mind it either but this is just completely random and does seem to be programmed into the game as numerous people are reporting that Messi, Rooney and few other stars just request to leave immediately early on into Career Mode.

It also defeats the purpose of having a 'player status' and 'player morale' option if they don't have any affect on your star players. I've had players with low morale ask for transfers and that's how it should work but that's not the case here. Just seems like it's randomly programmed into the game as a way to make your CM mode harder.

Re: Wayne Rooney demands immediate transfer!

Exact same thing happened to me with Arsenal and van Persie. First season, late Jan, and out of nowhere I get a notice that he has been sold. Didn't even get the chance to accept or reject their bid.
