Manager recognition for what turns out to be good player sales in long run

I've long wished FM incorporated this: Managers getting recognition for player sales that although at first may upset fans turn out to be excellent deals, as the player was clearly over valued, or goes on to produce poor form elsewhere. Examples:

- Player A performs well above his ability for a season and is sold at a premium, and goes back to ordinary form in future club - media and fans could recognize that this turned out to be a good deal for the club

- Player B was a fan favourite but showing signs of decline; Manager sells in what would be the last shot at a good transfer for the club, as proved by player's subsequent poor form

Thanks

That sounds good, or you sign a cheaper replacement who performs just as good

Or you use the money to buy someone much better in another more needed area on the pitch

Or in the longer term, signing players who go on to be successful could give the manager a reputation going forwards so fans place more trust in them, meaning they'll be more lenient with their views on more obscure signings. Vice versa, signing dodgy players on the cheap could lead to a Harry Redknapp-esque wheeler-dealer reputation in the transfer market that might annoy fans.
