As most of us know years ago Compulsory Sales used be enforced, where the board would automatically sell a player, or players, to make up the deficit if a club was in the red more than their overdraft allowed.
Anyway, we're all aware that this rule is no longer adhered to, and teams seem to flit in and out of debt, fleeting as well as massive, and others seem to stay that way for vast portions of the season.
So I was thinking (it does happen) . . .
. . . what if a you could offer to the board of the debt ridden club for a specific player?
Basically just say I'm in debt, once I go on the list another club could offer my board (for instance) £70m for Sergio Aguero. As manager I have no say in whether or not they sell my player, I'm just given notice of it. So, if I haven't cleared the outstanding debt by the time the board consider the offer, they can accept the bid in an effort to keep the club out of administration.
For example:
Week 1
I spend too much at Auction and end up £50m in debt, showing my club on the debt list.
Week 2
I've failed to rectify the situation, and still remain savagely in debt. In the meantime Lazio have bid £70m cash for Sergio Aguero, 'cause of his liking of South American players. Since I've not corrected my previous overspend the board inform me that Sergio Aguero will be sold next turn, for £70m, which has already been transferred in advance from Lazio to Bayern.
Anyway, I think that's it's an option, bringing things back closer to the way they were meant to be with regards compulsory sales, instead of allowing clubs stay afloat while in such debt.
Obviously the board won't accept every offer, only one(s) that are within the value of the player(s) bid on and only until the debt is repaid. It's not as if they're going to accept every single offer.
Thoughts?
