May be quite realistic, but it's not a good game mechanic... LOL
If you're playing as manager only then you can't control who gets promoted/demoted, signed/released, etc etc.

It's a very good game mechanic because it emulates real life. Absolutely it could be improved, no GM is going to start cutting guys without talking to his manager, but that kind of stuff just isn't easy to program. So we improvise as best as possible and use our imaginations a little to make it "feel" realistic.

If you want full control, make yourself GM/Manager (both jobs), otherwise you have to live with the fact that you have limited control over the team playing as manager only.

For the 2nd screen, you have to be GM to see/change all settings. You can also put yourself in Commish mode to make changes, but once you go back to managing, the AI will do it's thing again.

Hope this helps, and glad you're enjoying the game. The more you play, the more you become addicted. OOTP really is an amazing product.
