Q: What are the issues with selling players mid-season?
If you try to sell a player the same season you purchased him there will be a limited number of teams who can bid on him depending on how far progressed their season is. In this instance I would always suggest ask for a minimum price for the player as he likely won't get bid up.
if you are selling an existing player the same season he will get a mini-CR - so on transfer he may increase or decrease in skill. This is based on his DV accrued throughout the season being pro-rated over a whole season. Generally they will get a percentage of a change report based on the percentage of the season they were at your club.
It can be a good tactic to get players high in their band then sell them mid-season with good DV so they will be undereval and generate a high price.

Q: Oops I bid too much on a player, what can I do?
It is possible to go and reduce your bid down to the current bid. So for example if you bid 5m econ and have the top bid at 1.6m econ you can reduce your bid down to 1.6m or higher.
Q: Is buying players late in the season a bad thing?
Not always. Even without a full season at your club a player may well still gain a bar at the CR, or even double. If he only played half the season with you then he will gain half a CR worth of change. A lot depends on whether he was high in his skillband when you bought him and what form he comes in on.
For older players the big worry whether they will get adequate DV. This is not as big an issue as it may seem. DV is adusted to reflect only a partial CR so if you buy a player 2/3 of the way through the season he will likely come in on 7-8 DV and pretty much be restricted to within a few points of 10 DV regardless of form or how many games he plays.
Q: My forward never gets goals, should I sell him?
When a chance falls to a forward the main factors dictating the chance of scoring are the forward's skill, SQs relevant to the chance type and the goalkeeper's skill/performance. There is no hidden factor dictating that some forwards score lots of goals and others don't but randomness in X11 does make it seem like this at times.
Typically better forwards generally get more of the chances (relative to other forwards) and convert more into goals, but this isn't always the case. Certainly replacing one 10-skill forward with an equal player likely won't achieve anything. As long as your team is performing adequately I wouldn't worry, and if they aren't then maybe the problems lie elsewhere.
Q: Should I man mark the opponent freekicker?
According to the rules marking a freekicker doesn't affect his freekick ability, just his performance during the match.
Q: How is team value calculated?
The team value is the sum of the value of the players as they would appear on the transfer list - that is to say it includes agents fees (or 19% on top of the price you see as the valuation). EG if the sum of your players adds up to 100m then the team value will be around 119m
Q: I played a player and his DV went down. Why?
When a player plays a game he gains ME (match experience). DV is a function of ME and AF. If the DV is higher than AF then the affect of a form reduction can be more than the extra ME.
Q: Do I get more DV with my players if the game goes to extra time?
According to the rules players will only get DV for the first 90 mnutes they play, so in cup games it may well be an idea to substitute youths at the end of normal time.
Q: How long will it take my player's teamwork to get from poor to excellent?
Player teamwork converges at different rates depending on how many games a team has per season so it is probably best to judge in seasons rather than games. Typically any player apart from divas will get to excellent teamwork within 4-5 seasons. Convergence happens faster the further they are from excellent, so you could regard this as around 1 step (ie poor-fair-good-excellent) per 1-2 seasons.
