In terms of trying to be a realistic game where is the logic in this? And why start with the best players and not the RES or subs when its obvious that this in my situation this would be more than enough?

A club lands in the red 1M, and to get on the green side again they sell they're best player, say worth 100M? Doesnt mather if he is then only GK or ST on the team. I now see I have overestimated how authentic this game really is, and if nothing is done with this I will not use a penny more on this game and Nordeus will loose a good customer. From a buisness point of wiev a stupid thing to do.

Is Nordeus perception "If you have been in the red for one week the best solution for every club is to sell they're best player/players" ? And this is because the game allows you to place bids way above youre finances. Where is the logic and realism in this? "Yes we allow you to place as many bids, nevermind the numbers and you might land 500M in the reds if you want. Then we warn you for one week that youre finances is ****ty, then we start selling all your best players" This is to me personally a strange feature, and I bet my left nut the people who say "you should have known this" probably found out about this the same way I did. If this fancy warning would say "Fix your finances! Remember the board will sell your best player if you have not taken care of this in a week" then the situation would probably be different, in 99% of these cases
Yes, you could have sold a different player and you had 7 days to do it but you didn't do it, that's why the board took action after warning you this would happen.

The game allows you to "finish" all auctions you've entered, as otherwise it would block you to continue bidding when you're already fighting against other managers for a player. Because the cash is only paid when you actually win an auction for a player, that's the moment this amount of cash can't be used anymore. Meanwhile, just participating into an auction doesn't mean you will need to spend this amount of cash. If you don't win the auction no cash is spent.

Many managers bid on several different players at the same time, let's say MCs, but they only want to sign "one". Without this feature they would only be able to bid on one, and if the lose it, they would need to start again. With this auction system, if you see 2 or 3 MCs finishing soon, you can bid on them (as long as you have the cash to afford each of them individually) and then decide which one you want to finally pursue. Otherwise you would be forced to bid on one, and maybe later realise it was a mistake. System only allows you to place bid on players you can currently afford with your cash, so it prevents any user to bid on players they don't have enough cash to pay if they end up winning the auction. "Nevermind the numbers" is not true here

If this fancy warning would say "Fix your finances! Remember the board will sell your best player if you have not taken care of this in a week" then the situation would probably be different, in 99% of these cases

The message already says that. The board sends this warning message to the user:

"Your cash balance is XXXX. In order to ensure the club survives this crisis, the board of directors will have to sell your top player if your debt is not cleared in ​YYYYY​ day(s)."

Besides that, the auction system as it is and the bankruptcy rule have been in Top Eleven for many years. They're also explained in the rules, in TopEleven.com articles and in the FAQ of our Help Center, which is accessible directly from the app (clicking the question mark button at the end of the left sidebar menu). And when a user is in debt, it warns him he has 7 days to take action otherwise the board will start selling his best players. I understand this can be frustrating, or you can dislike this feature, but you can't claim the system didn't warn you about what was going to happen.
