BUDGET

Starting budget: £45 mil
Transfers In: (£135.5 mil)
Transfers Out: £76 mil
Prediction bonus: £22 mil

Current Budget: £7.5

That is reasonable, but I'd only do a trade, not interested in losing out.

At this rate if I do a deal with Kamran, I'll just have the old Barcelona side.

messi + ferdinand + carvalho + vdv
=
ribery + kompany + jones + modric

i'll deal at this

let me know

messi + Ferdinand + clichy + vdv
=
ribery + Kompany + alba + modric
---------------------

i dnt even like messi mate seriously just want him so that barca won't get him you know with both ronaldo and messi who'll beat them

losing modric alba and kompany for messi is madness

this is a fair deal mate

messi + Ferdinand + vdv + carvalho
=
ribery + Kompany + modric + jones

messi is injured for a long time

messi + Ferdinand + vdv + carvalho + clichy
=
ribery + Kompany + modric + jones + alba

you can have alba too i really like alba

waiting for your reply have to post my teamsheet mate

D.Silva + Pepe + Coentrao + Moutinho
for
Messi + Mexes/Ferdinand + Clichy + VdV

Enq.

messi + Ferdinand + vdv + carvalho + clichy
=
ribery + Kompany + modric + jones + alba

you can have alba too i really like alba

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

enq only

Captain - injuries are void when players are transferred hence why I'm even contemplating selling Messi!!

I will reply tomorrow morning to offers.

Aguero & Pirlo & Casillas
For
Messi & Lloris

Van De Vaart + Mexes
for
Pedro + Kjaer

enq

Van De Vaart + Mexes
for
Pedro + Kjaer
-------------------------
I know what you mean regarding Pedro's position but have seen him play that role before so not that strange for him

Your call

pull mate it was an enq not a deal

its a deal now then i guess

Kompany + Alba
for
Puyol + Cole

made an foreign enq can you plz accept/reject it

no worries was a pretty decent deal for both of us

fc porto offer £6m for jose bosingwa

Please accept/reject on the transfer confirmation page by Friday 10th August.

Kompany + Essien + Ribery
=
Pepe + Schwein + Silva
---------------------------------

Good offer. I would probably do it for Modric, not sure for Essien though. Any chance of the wantaway Croatian instead?

Kos>Bos and rate Kolscielny quite high tobe honest

Thanks for the tip.
Just realised I had Kjaer so played him CB

Kompany + Higuain + Veloso + Lloris
=
Kaka + Aguero + Luiz + Casillas

enq

What would you want extra if you took out Veloso and added in Modric?

Pique + Mata + Cole
for
Kompany + Alba + Ribery

I could do that.

Was only an enq. really.

Will sort out the deal and Dortmund at midday today after work.

Still undecided.

enq

navas + modric
=
suarez + lampard/cambiasso ???

Higuain + Pienaar + BAE
for
Schmelzer + Lewandowski + Kagawa

ENQ.

Alaba and x
=
Alba and x?

enq

You don't know who Alaba is? Really?

Just to say that he's probably one of the best young left backs in the world.

Schwein + Pepe
=
Kompany + Veloso
-----------------------

For me the gap between the MFs is much greater than that between the CBs so not keen on that.

Schwein + Pepe
=
Kompany + Modric

would be closer.

No chance for me. I think Modric is a little overrated tbh. Yes, a good player but not in the world class bracket. Schwein had a indifferent season but was struggling with injury for a lot of it. Fully fit he is much better than Modric imo.

Navas + Mexes
=
Pedro + Terry
-----------------------
I rate both of mine higher mate

Schwein + Pepe
=
Kompany + Veloso
----------------------------------

Another thought:

Sneijder + Pepe + De Jong
=
Kompany + Modric + Veloso

OK, no worries. Boateng will indeed have to do a job.

mexes+maicon
=
bonuci+arbeloa

arbeloa>maicon , bonuci>mexes

enq

enq

suarez + lampard
=
navas + modric

??

higuain+toulalan+maicon+mexes
=
muller+essien+arbeloa+bonuci

enq

enq

messi + lampard
=
ribery + Modric

??

thinking about the deal will let you know

anything for modric except messi ???

enq

Ribery + Modric
=
Benzema + Lampard + VDV

Juventus bid £12 mil for Benoît Assou-Ekotto

Please accept/reject on the transfer confirmation page by Friday 31 August.

Ribery for Pedro?

ribery+essien = hamsik/gaitan/young+toulalan

enmq

Tempting.

Kompany + Alba for Cole + Pique

Enq

Enq...

Will most likely deal but need to wait around, got quite a few options at the moment.

alba+esien
=
baines+ramires

enq

what for ribery ???

enq

lampard + benzema + vdv= ribery + Modric ????

nah sorry Lindergaard is a good player started games for united last season

what about

enq

lampard + benzema + cambiasso + de gea + vdv = ribery + essien + lloris + modric ????

solves your injury problems

messi will cost alot mate not looking to sell him but if the offer is good i might
