I know domestics aren't open yet but I'm interested in Schweinsteiger, Ribery/Robben, and I can use Carragher/Johnson/Carroll to balance things out.

Something involving the likes of
Maxi + Kuyt + Gerrard + Carroll + Johnson + Carragher + Lucas
For the likes of
Ribery/Robben + Kroos + Schweinsteiger + Gomez + Rafinha + Badstuber + Tymoschuk

(More of an enquiry than an offer)

Oh, domestics aren't open until Monday, I thought they'd be open later today, I'll leave it until then then.

Di Maria + Albiol
=
Robben?

Maxi + Kuyt + Gerrard + Carroll + Johnson + Carragher + Lucas + £40m
=
Ribery/Robben + Kroos + Schweinsteiger + Gomez + Rafinha + Badstuber + Tymoschuk
?

There 2 of my 3 decent players so would have to be a big offer to convince me to sell them

Schwein..

was going to come to you with an offer. Its Robben im interested in mate, not Ribery.

But yes, those were the players im looking to use. Have an offer in place with Jimbo with Pedro but he hasnt got back to me yet.

Can do Pedro + Ozil+ Keita + Alcantara for Robben + Muller + Tymoschuk + Van Buyten
maybe something like that

Tymoschuk + Kroos + Olic + Van Buyten
=
Krasic + Pirlo + Bonnucci?

-------------------------

I need to improve my defence + wings more tbh

I've got rid of Gerrard anyway mate

Still interested in Schwein and Ribery/Robben though...

Carra/Agger/Skrtel + Carra/Agger/Skrtel + Milner/Adam + Downing + Kuyt + £45m
=
Badstuber + Breno + Schwein + Ribery

Robben + Lahm + Gustavo + Gomez + Albiol
=
Di Maria + Marcelo + Khedira + Benzema + Boateng

If you could maybe chuck in another bench player like Tymoschuk I'd deal

Robben + Lahm + Tymoschuk + Gomez + Boateng
=
Di Maria + Marcelo + Khedira + Benzema + Albiol

Go on then mate, deal

not intrested in that, prefer my players.

Mertersacker + Arshavin + Bennayoun + Gervinho + Song
for
Badstuber + Di Maria + Ribery + Mueller

Looking to use him to improve my first team

What can you offer for Mertersacker?



Different offer...

Badstuber + Di Maria + Khadeira + Van Buyten

for

Mert + Arshavin + Song + Gervinho

Van Buyten + Rafinha
=
Mertesacker + Sagna?
----------------------------
Both of my players are rated higher than you offered

I thought my second offer was pretty fair to be honest

Kaka + Ramires + Alex + Malouda + Meireles
for
Khedira + Muller + Van Buyten + Ribery + Olic

Enq.

Suarez + Silva
for
Muller + Ribery
----------------------------

Prefer both my players really. Silva is definitely > Ribery these days (when was the last time Ribery had a top game?) and although Muller is class, I like Suarez and can only see him gaining rating as the season goes on.

What about

Suarez + Clichy
for
Muller + Marcelo

Prefer both mine bud.

No thanks

What do you think of this?

Carra/Agger/Skrtel + Carra/Agger/Skrtel + Milner/Adam + Downing + Kuyt (+ Yaya) (+ Enrique) + £45m
=
Albiol/Badstuber + Breno + Schwein + Ribery (+ Khedira) (+ Marcelo)

Tempting offer, anthing you could add or would it be just that?

im after a backup CB really as i dont have one. Didnt realise Gabriel Milito had even left Barcelona, so only have Andreu Fontas. But if you dont have any one there im not sure what else could be added, so i may do a swap?

Rafinha + Badstuber + Albiol + Neuer + Benzema
=
Sagna + Mertesacker + Vermaelen + Szczesny + RVP
---------------
rafinha<<Sagna
Badstuber<Mert
Albiol<Verm
Neuer>>Szcz
Benzema<=RVP

Losing too much so no deal

OK go on for the sake of balance etc i will do it. Deal.

Albiol>Verm....

Anyway, is everything with you ok now?
Things are sorted?

Glad to see you back

Problem is all my players are better....

I think I'll agree to disagree - I think Vermaelen is better overall



Think Albiol needs to leave Madrid as he doesnt start much

Arguably....

Still prefer my two mate.

True but how many games can you say that Albiol was brilliant when called upon?

That's why Vermaelen is better IMO

No worries pal - team is looking good so far

Gerrard + De Jong + Suarez
for
Khedira + Muller + Schwein

All players very much equal in their respective head-to-heads imo but gives change and you gt the old Liverpool Gerrard / Alonso combo.

Else what for Alonso for me to get that combo?

Muller + Di Maria
for
Suarez + Silva
--------------------

Obviously a decent offer but I want to keep Silva. I am interesed in Di Maria if there is any deal there.

Id prefer Carvalho to either breno/badstuber tbh

No ty

I think i need to keep carvalho since aint got much else in defence

Benzema + Rafinha + Szczesny
=
Van Persie + Sagna + Neuer
--------------------------------------
Rather keep them and buy a good keeper in foreigns mate.

Thanks for the heads up but will risk the foreigns keeper situation

Chuck Neuer 4 one of my keepers and you have a deal

Without Schwein my interest in any deal significantly decreases

Oh ok, don't think we can deal then

Schwein > Pato
Muller =< Robhino
Benzema < Ibra

How I see it

Spose and no literally Schwein is my favourite player in the world

Not interested in either of them mate and Ibra + Robhino are about to be sold

Its tough really because nobody really wants my players thus the best I can aim for is people's bench's.

Could be interested in Olic if anyone.

For Ones I would need Benzema plus an improvement elsewhere.

Until I stepped in... it's did eat dog on here mate.

I was thinking more Schwein for Gerrard type thing. Will think about possible deals.

No deal to your enquiry. There are a few good keepers out there so will risk foreigns for that.

I'm not convinced you were that close to a deal tbh. 207 had already said he wanted Schwein and wasn't interested in Butt.

You speak as if I've broken the rules somehow. I know it's frustrating when you think you've got a deal nearly sorted and another manager comes in an gazumps you. It's happened to me often enough. I was waiting for 207 to come online in order to discuss a deal for Ibra.

Alonso = Ozil?

Rated about the same, gives you the German midfield 3

Marcelo + Rafinha + Albiol + Khedira + Muller
=
Evra + Rafael + Ferdinand + Carrick + Nani

---------

Evra > Marcelo
Rafael = Rafinha
Rio > Albiol
Carrick < Khed
Nani > Muller

No deal pal

Carrick + Nani
=
Schwein + Muller

Enquiry

Would

Kaka + Robinho
for
Schwein + Di Maria

be of interest ?
