Indefinite “on sale” option
I suggest a new option for selling players, which basically removes the instant 3 day deadline. Instead the player is put on sale indefinitely, and the 3 day countdown is only started once an opening bid has been made.
The idea is that when you tag a player as “on sale” (with a position and a minimum price), instead of putting him on sale for 3 days, you could just put the deadline on as “indefinite”.
When someone actually makes an offer, the player would then be placed on the transfer list with the standard 3 day period for new offers. (Among other reasons because otherwise cheating would be way too easy.)
This would help players with difficulties of accessing the computer at “best sales hours” and at less busy time zones (far East Asia for example) to receive offers on players and to have easier access to players in general. I think it would make the transfers part of the game a little less dependant on the time zone you live in and the hours you work at.
It would of course also help lazy coaches, but with the downside that your players stats would be on display indefinitely, and they would have no idea when this player would disappear from their lineup (well, except that they’d get a three day warning).
