I don't think you understand what I was proposing. Maybe a language problem but 'hypothetical' means a possible situation, not one that is real. I was trying to figure out any kind of way this might work
Nordeus would have to change part of the programming, All players lose a star as per normal at the end of each season, apart from the negotiated players who can only be bought in the last week, they keep their ratings through to the new season. (the pre-contract part)
That way, we can still have negotiations, they would still be worthwhile,
I can't see any other way this new system will work
