It didnt look too much different on saturday to be honest Olly.
Defence looked more alert

That sounds good then!!! Attacking wise we don't need to change much, we score goals. If Hughton can sort out the defence that would be great to see some clean sheets!!

by ncfc_Tooze Mon Jul 30, 2012 12:50 pm

Ayala looked great as did Barnett
Just got to hope Martins knee isnt too mashed up!

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Mon Jul 30, 2012 12:51 pm

Tooze you up for a deal?

I want to see another defender come in, ideally another CB and a back up LB.

by ncfc_Tooze Mon Jul 30, 2012 12:52 pm

Depends who you want

I think we are alright at CB to be honest olly
we def need a LB though

I wouldn't mind seeing us bring in a loanee at CB. Just a youngster. And at LB same thing really. Glad to have Tierney back, he is a good player.

by ncfc_Tooze Mon Jul 30, 2012 1:00 pm

yeah it was a shame he got injured when he did last year.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Mon Jul 30, 2012 1:01 pm

Sorry Tooze I have set of a chain of events there!!!
My offer is still the best though Whistle

by **Hero** Mon Jul 30, 2012 1:01 pm

Never mind a Gold Rush, at Tooze's club it's a stampede for a Silva Rush!

by Fernando Mon Jul 30, 2012 1:03 pm

im guessing this means french league players are now rated then Whistle

by **Afro** Mon Jul 30, 2012 1:06 pm

Any interest in Xavi?

I am willing to use his in order to improve across the rest of the team, but would be looking for a 3 for 1 deal at least

by Marky Mon Jul 30, 2012 1:36 pm

Looking for £5m.

Anyone?

Also 21 years old and eligable for the cup as a U21 next season.

I would do Siem de Jong for him?

by **Afro** Mon Jul 30, 2012 1:41 pm

Isn't Hernandez 22? If he is an U21 for next seasons cup, then I will buy him from you.

by TwisT Mon Jul 30, 2012 1:42 pm

Jovetic is for sale.....grudgingly. Looking for a quality CB to start with.

by Marky Mon Jul 30, 2012 1:45 pm

Sorry Olly, cash only.

Afro, check his DOB but I'm sure he's 21.

by **Afro** Mon Jul 30, 2012 1:47 pm

He is 22 on 8th August.

We won't be starting the new season by then, so I am assuming that for next seasons cup, he will not qualify as U21 (given that you said it was 21 or under at the start of the season)

by Marky Mon Jul 30, 2012 1:51 pm

Damn you Abel and your early birthing mother!

by TwisT Mon Jul 30, 2012 2:31 pm

No one interested in Jovetic? I am shocked. Highest scorer for me and likely to go to Chelsea. I am only selling him as I need to increase my squad.

Anyone.......................

by **Afro** Mon Jul 30, 2012 2:33 pm

I'll be honest, it was a bit funny to see only say he wasn't interested in Jovetic, but was focusing on LW and/or striker instead.

Unless there is another Jovetic?

Lol I know.....no it is THE Jovetic

Who can play on the left and as a striker picard

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Mon Jul 30, 2012 2:37 pm

If I'm honest I'm confused as to what direction I am heading next season. So I am just in limbo as to what to do atm lol

by **Afro** Mon Jul 30, 2012 2:41 pm

I would have bitten your hands off for Jovetic Twist.

Until I noticed Vucinic was somehow still available in TPs. Now I have Jovetic's equal, for cheaper and for cash.

And he is right footed, which is something I was after given I have plenty of left footed wide players.

Looking at your position in the table I'd say the direction was down. Whistle

I think that was pretty much a certainty from the start of the season Laugh

by **Hero** Mon Jul 30, 2012 2:45 pm

I'd say though you could be title favourites for the Championship next season the way your team has become.

True, but you must ask yourself why wasn't he snapped up? Is he not rated? I knew he was there, but I had good enough players in that position and IMO he would be a bit of a risk.

Wish someone would go for Jovetic lol. I am happy to keep him, but I really thought I could beef up my squad with selling him. Like you were trying to do with Xavi

That's what I did when I sold Bale. And I am a little reluctant to give it all up for one player if you know what I mean

by **Afro** Mon Jul 30, 2012 2:51 pm

I did ask myself why he wasn't snapped up. I'd just gone past him in the past as I assumed he would be taken, but for some reason decided to check this time.

I don't see why Vucinic wouldn't be rated any differently than Jovetic. He was a regular starter for Juve, the Italian champions, scoring his fair share of goals as well.

The only reason Vucinic would be a risk and Jovetic not would be your own highlighting of the player.

Someone should want Jovetic though. He is a class player (just like Vucinic!!!).

by TwisT Mon Jul 30, 2012 2:51 pm

BTW Afro....when is the new Apprentice task/teams being posted?

I hope so! I think me and Cherries have suffered from being the sort of replacements for you and TSC this season in the Premier League. We have got better, but we ain't quite at that standard yet

Obviously not......only very wishy washy offers so far. Nothing concrete. Rather like the real life transfer dealings of the player Laugh

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Mon Jul 30, 2012 2:54 pm

TwisT I might be in for Jovetic. I might not. It depends on how this Silva offer goes down with Tooze. I dunno whether I want him or not lol.

by **Afro** Mon Jul 30, 2012 2:56 pm

I can't see Tooze selling Silva for any of those offers tbh. He has always held on to him resolutely and turned down some much bigger offers in the past

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Mon Jul 30, 2012 2:57 pm

I think £30 million + Skrtel from me will tempt him. That is £45 million pretty much in terms of player added onto the cash.

by **Afro** Mon Jul 30, 2012 2:57 pm

Twist - soon. I am going to into a meeting at 2, so it will be after that.

I was toying with another of Hero's ideas (based around Twitter), but given the success of his last idea, I might go back to old school tasks.

I don't think he will even consider it.

I agree. And to be honest I think that is a dumb deal. You are gaining one very good defender for a good defender. But you are losing £30m as well, that needs to be used in other areas of your team.

IMO, keep the cash and use Skrtel to get players in your problem positions. Not another defender.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Mon Jul 30, 2012 3:08 pm

But if I got Silva my defence would be

Abate - Subotic - Silva - Agger - Alaba

I want that defence!!!!

by **Hero** Mon Jul 30, 2012 3:10 pm

But if I got Silva (and not for Vidic) I'd have the following 4 centre backs...

Vidic
Chiellini
Hummels
Silva

Not that it'd be greedy or anything.

by TwisT Mon Jul 30, 2012 4:43 pm

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2179693/Gaston-Ramirez-talks-Premier-League-club.html

Could finally get the respect he deserves. I remember when I had him in the Furious League for Malaga, and he was quality then but unknown. I can see him playing on the left in front of Downing to be honest.

I think £20m is small change for his quality, especially when Dempsey would have cost roughly the same, and Gaston is a good deal younger.

Plus, £12m TP was peanuts as I expect him to be a first teamer for me in Season 3.

by **Afro** Mon Jul 30, 2012 4:47 pm

And I've got a feeling I might have been the one who sold him to you at Malaga.

I have bought him from TPs in most of the leagues I have been in.

by TwisT Mon Jul 30, 2012 4:56 pm

You loaned him to TheCelticGarbutt when he was Malaga manager for £1.5m

Then I brought him off you for keeps for Serdar Tasci + Ramirez = Leonardo Bonucci Laugh

I was just starting out at that point

by FIFA Diva Mon Jul 30, 2012 4:57 pm

Thats right. In those days Ramirez was a real unknown on these leagues, and Tasci even less so Ok!

I think Bonucci was one of the most sought after defenders at that point.

Although I think I sold him to CF for £22m
