The reason Dzogaev was moved around was because Gregers paid a ridiculous fee for him, then I decided to do the same. He's always done well in my team.

Maybe I should sign Arshavin. Impressed when he went back to Zenit, and I get to continue my Russian team. Thanks for the tip, although I don't think you meant it that way Laugh

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Mon 27 Aug 2012, 8:59 pm

Defour + cash = M'Vila
ENQ

by Marky Mon 27 Aug 2012, 9:03 pm

No deal. I'd alter it to;

Balotelli, Xavi + M'bia
=
Hamsik, Essien + Howedes
ENQ

by Marky Tue 28 Aug 2012, 10:28 am

First point, I'd rather keep Kompany in my defence with Schweinsteiger and co in midfield, than add Xavi and have a hole in my defence.

Second point, I offered Hamsik for Balotelli which you rejected. That would be what's required.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue 28 Aug 2012, 10:39 am

I know you like Defour that's why I offered him to you Laugh

If there is anything we can do for M'Vila I would like to. Maybe Sven Bender in the deal?

by sodhat Tue 28 Aug 2012, 10:48 am

I wouldn't do that deal at the moment, Xavi would be handy alongside Busquets of course though.

Don't think I can include Sanchez in a deal because I'm baiting Marky to get Hamsik, so he may well be gone soon.

by TwisT Tue 28 Aug 2012, 10:49 am

Ok...Xavi. Let us get down to business. Would you please make me an offer so I know you're thinking. Unless he is a defo NFS

by sodhat Tue 28 Aug 2012, 10:51 am

I am getting a pretty good deal out of Marky for Sanchez, and it moves me closer to my goal than anything I would be able to get from you just for him.

Aside from Sanchez I would be willing to offer Ramires and Moutinho for Xavi

by sodhat Tue 28 Aug 2012, 10:55 am

No, sorry, I wouldn't want to lose out too heavily, and Pepe would be very difficult to replace in TPs at present

by sodhat Tue 28 Aug 2012, 10:57 am

More or less a done deal with Marky now

Jovetic is a good player but not the type I am after at the moment

by sodhat Tue 28 Aug 2012, 11:02 am

Good offer, but the deal is done elsewhere I am afraid

by sodhat Tue 28 Aug 2012, 11:05 am

Sorry I couldn't help you out - I know you're a big fan of his, I just wanted Hamsik together with Cavani again

They both scored on the weekend Whistle

by sodhat Tue 28 Aug 2012, 11:16 am

Would you entertain a deal for Xavi including Pepe and Ramires?

by sodhat Tue 28 Aug 2012, 11:19 am

Gaitan?

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue 28 Aug 2012, 11:21 am

No thanks mate

by sodhat Tue 28 Aug 2012, 11:25 am

Dependant on a deal with Olly, I think Ramires + Pepe = Xavi is the best I can throw your way; although I could include Sissoko/Siggy

by TwisT Tue 28 Aug 2012, 11:32 am

Suarez yes.....Baines no

Xavi = Cabaye + Suarez

by TwisT Tue 28 Aug 2012, 11:43 am

No sorry, I am not losing Baines. Xavi isn't worth all that. Quality CM and an AM you wanted. I think that is Cabaye and Suarez. If you want a CB, I have Smalling.

I think Xavi = Cabaye + Suarez is a fair deal. I am not budging on that. If you want Smalling as well, I would want M'Vila

by TwisT Tue 28 Aug 2012, 11:54 am

He isn't the CB you need though so that doesn't make sense to me. He is a LB.

Swap Cabaye for Smalling then.

Xavi = Smalling + Suarez

I won't offer all 3 for Xavi however

by sodhat Tue 28 Aug 2012, 11:57 am

Ok. It's still likely I'd do a deal with Olly to be fair, but it will allow me to shill Pepe around so if you really want him he may disappear somewhere...

by TwisT Tue 28 Aug 2012, 12:00 pm

Ok, so are we done? Unless you want to offer me something for Cabaye on his own?

by TwisT Tue 28 Aug 2012, 12:22 pm

How is this one for you.

Suarez + Cabaye = M'Vila + Ballotelli

or just

Cabaye = M'Vila

I need my midfield rock. Cabaye is going to trebs otherwise.

by Trebs Tue 28 Aug 2012, 12:28 pm

If you want a new midfield rock, if M'Vila leaves, I can do a reasonable deal for Luiz Gustavo? Just thought I'd bring it full circle.

by sodhat Tue 28 Aug 2012, 12:36 pm

Sorry, without Skrtel coming in I can't do our original deal because I am not getting a CB in

by TwisT Tue 28 Aug 2012, 12:38 pm

Ramires is too much like what I already have. Hence why I would like Carrick or M'Vila.

Cabaye + Suarez = M'Vila + Nikica Jelavic + ?

Otherwise I will just got for Carrick

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue 28 Aug 2012, 12:41 pm

Nikica Jelavic = Jermain Defoe + Gylfi Sigurdsson
ENQ

by sodhat Tue 28 Aug 2012, 12:45 pm

I don't strictly need Xavi if Mout is staying

How about Xavi + Jagielka = Pepe + Moutinho + Gonalons?

by sodhat Tue 28 Aug 2012, 12:50 pm

I was a bit perplexed by the wording of that last one! Are you saying:

Xavi + Mbia + £10m for Ramires + Pepe + Gonalons

or

Xavi + Jags + £10m for Ramires + Pepe + Gaitan

by TwisT Tue 28 Aug 2012, 12:51 pm

Cabaye + Suarez = M'Vila + Nikica Jelavic + Barkley

ENQ

by sodhat Tue 28 Aug 2012, 12:56 pm

Sorry, I can't do it without getting a CB so I think I'll have to pull out here and go with what Trebs has offered. Leaves a better balance to my team.

by TwisT Tue 28 Aug 2012, 12:56 pm

Actually, I am withdrawing my offer. Cabaye and Suarez is a hell of a lot to give away just for those players. Sorry, but it would have to be Mario or Xavi

by sodhat Tue 28 Aug 2012, 1:01 pm

This is extremely tough!

It's a good offer but in terms of balance to my side and how we will play I just don't think it's above Treb's offer

by TwisT Tue 28 Aug 2012, 1:01 pm

Sorry Afro, but it was 40m+ for 30m. If M'Vila was certain to go to Spurs I would accept.

I would happily do Cabaye + 3m = M'Vila. But if you want Suarez, you will have to offer more than Jelavic and Barkley.

Suarez + Cabaye for Xavi still stands however.

by sodhat Tue 28 Aug 2012, 1:02 pm

PM for you shortly

by TwisT Tue 28 Aug 2012, 1:19 pm

Yeah, but I want to get my CDM position sorted now that Lucas is injured. Cabaye will probably go to trebs as I can get Carrick.

I know you want more for Xavi but I really think the above is a fair offer. Only think I can do is chuck in Ryan Shawcross.

I think you may have Eriksen Bull syndrome Laugh

by sodhat Tue 28 Aug 2012, 1:35 pm

I could only do that if it were Jagielka, otherwise I will confirm Trebs offer. I will be back in like 3 minutes with coffee but once I am I have to confirm and do some work!

by TwisT Tue 28 Aug 2012, 1:42 pm

Giroud instead of Suarez then as you hate him so much

by sodhat Tue 28 Aug 2012, 1:49 pm

Any advance on the Jags/Xavi = Ramires/Pepe?

Need to close it out

by TwisT Tue 28 Aug 2012, 2:04 pm

Nope..Hazard ain't moving

by Russell_Elmo Tue 28 Aug 2012, 2:22 pm

No deal. They're not for sale.

by Gregers Tue 28 Aug 2012, 2:53 pm

Big ask but are Xavi and Super Mario available?

Eto'o, x and x?

by **Hero** Tue 28 Aug 2012, 3:45 pm

I'm not overly a fan of Honda but I'd do it if you swapped him for Criscito? Both worth similar amounts.

by sodhat Tue 28 Aug 2012, 3:47 pm

Another left back!

by **Hero** Tue 28 Aug 2012, 4:06 pm

How much for Bertrand and Isla btw?

Not overly looking to part with either due to their versatility and hoping that both have big seasons in RL.

by sodhat Tue 28 Aug 2012, 4:06 pm

Anything we can do for Kyle Walker?

I notice you need an LB, I could throw Nagatomo or Caceres your way.

by Gregers Tue 28 Aug 2012, 4:09 pm

Ansaldi can definitely leave.

As you know I'm interested in a cam and a cf so let's work from there.

Carroll and Ansaldi and x = Honda and Super Mario?

by Gregers Tue 28 Aug 2012, 4:13 pm

Depends on how much cash as I'd need to get a replacement backup lb in.

by TwisT Tue 28 Aug 2012, 4:26 pm

Well I am going to accept trebs offer for Cabaye.

Cabaye = M'Vila + Barkley

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue 28 Aug 2012, 4:28 pm

While that is a very good offer, it is not likely I will sell Bale, and definately not to one of my rivals in the league. Sorry mate, you know how much I like Jelavic lol

by TwisT Tue 28 Aug 2012, 4:33 pm

Yes or No to the above Afro??
