Important End of Season information -- please read

STAR PLAYER BIDS ARE OPEN

Star Player bids will commence Wednesday (15th), and run to Friday (17th) at midnight, when bidding is closed. Who got who will be posted on Saturday all being well - and assuming it can't be done earlier. If you miss out initially, there will be a second round bidding process and you may make another bid on a player. All bids will be sealed and PM'd to Hero and sodhat. It should be made clear that you cannot make a big bid on a Star Player, and then not have the cash all at once. All money must be paid immediately, or you miss out. We aren't doing IOU's on it, and that applies to everyone.

To qualify for the second round you must have submitted a first round bid - you can't just wait and see what's left. If there are exceptional circumstances as to why you missed the deadline you may appeal to the runners, but these circumstances absolutely do not include "I was playing Ultimate Team for 4 days with the curtains closed."

Bull I'd keep Lamela, better than Eriksen and I reckon will have a barnstorming season.

by sodhat Thu Aug 16, 2012 11:34 am

I hope Gregers accepts for Stekelenburg because I just had a call from the club making an offer for him via lawyers and they've changed their bid Whistle

by Bull Thu Aug 16, 2012 11:35 am

well thats cheating putting it on here and them changing there bid.

by Marky Thu Aug 16, 2012 11:35 am

Thierry Henry - Sold by Arsenal with £5.6m profit
Samir Nasri - Sold by Arsenal with £6.2m profit
Gael Clichy - Sold by Arsenal with £6.75m profit
Patrick Vieira - Sold by Arsenal with £10.2m profit
Kolo Toure - Sold by Arsenal with £15.85m profit
Emmanuel Adebayor - Sold by Arsenal with £18m profit
Marc Overmars - Sold by Arsenal with £18m profit
Nicolas Anelka - Sold by Arsenal with £22.5m profit
Cesc Fabregas - Sold by Arsenal with £32.75m profit

Add to that Robin Van Persie being sold with £20m profit, it's easy to see why Arsenal have such good accounts. It's not because of being "well run", it's because they are a selling club.

by sodhat Thu Aug 16, 2012 11:36 am

£24m for a player with a year left on his deal is good business for me. They lose a class act, but they look in good shape still. No point keeping him or losing him on the cheap.

by The Special Juan Thu Aug 16, 2012 11:43 am

It's a risk but if we can get one fantastic season out of him (like last year) I'll be ok with it. It's the same with ~~Falcao~~ Berbatov; he was the main man the last time we won the league with 20 with his goals against small teams.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Thu Aug 16, 2012 11:51 am

Surely Bull's star player bid shouldn't be allowed if he doesn't have the cash? He is bidding with money he doesn't have, we are teaching him the wrong moral values, he will be in debt poor kid

by Bull Thu Aug 16, 2012 11:52 am

i can easily get the money.

by Trebs Thu Aug 16, 2012 11:53 am

It depends who his star player bid is for Whistle

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Thu Aug 16, 2012 11:54 am

Well at least you can sell Eriksen now Bull to raise some cash. He ain't needed now you got Lamela

by The Special Juan Thu Aug 16, 2012 11:56 am

Michael Bradley will have the season of his life..........

by Bull Thu Aug 16, 2012 11:57 am

I'm not selling the great eriksen we will have player rotation

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Thu Aug 16, 2012 11:58 am

But by signing Lamela, you are pretty much saying Eriksen ain't good enough. Which he isn't. Bull it's time you cut ties with the bloke, now you have Lamela

by The Special Juan Thu Aug 16, 2012 12:02 pm

Is Lamela any good? I've never seen him; not allowed to watch Roma in this house.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Thu Aug 16, 2012 12:04 pm

From what I have seen of Lamela, and Eriksen. I would say Lamela is the better player. And I have seen Eriksen live

by sodhat Thu Aug 16, 2012 12:05 pm

The Special Juan wrote:Is Lamela any good? I've never seen him; not allowed to watch Roma in this house.

He is very talented, and an heir to Totti in Rome, according to Totti himself.

by Gregers Thu Aug 16, 2012 12:17 pm

I'm looking for a new left back, happy to pay big so if anyone has a top one going...

by Trebs Thu Aug 16, 2012 12:20 pm

Clichy can go but it would have to be a massive offer. I'd want to improve my first XI somewhere else too.

Can we sign players sold in foreign offers yet?

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Thu Aug 16, 2012 12:31 pm

My tactics for the pre season friendly will be in tonight boys. Same with EPL tactics Gregers

by Bull Thu Aug 16, 2012 12:31 pm

there will be player rotation.

by sodhat Thu Aug 16, 2012 12:33 pm

Looking for an AM back up to Ozil. Willing to pay cash or players, or both. What is available?

by sodhat Thu Aug 16, 2012 12:41 pm

Allow me to throw the cat among the pigeons here.

I signed 2 tp's this week. 1 of which was Adam Maher of AZ, who I couldn't see in the league. I have now seen he is in fact available as a free agent in releases.

Would this mean that my "tp" for Maher wasn't a tp after all, and my confirmed tp for Lamela should stand?

Geniune appeal for opinions here.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Thu Aug 16, 2012 12:42 pm

Was he in releases?

by sodhat Thu Aug 16, 2012 12:42 pm

Adam Maher is.

https://www.606v2.com/t26746-releases-page

Halfway down, just by Lodeiro.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Thu Aug 16, 2012 12:43 pm

What Marky's one? Then why didn't you sign him from there lol

by sodhat Thu Aug 16, 2012 12:44 pm

Olly wrote:What Marky's one? Then why didn't you sign him from there lol

I didn't see him there, but that is the crux of my issue. If he is in releases I can't have used a TP for him, and thus my second TP for Lamela wasn't void.

by Trebs Thu Aug 16, 2012 12:47 pm

When can I sign players sold in foreign offers? Need to know whether or not to do a deal.

by **Hero** Thu Aug 16, 2012 12:48 pm

Btw, no one can actually buy Falcao, his value is now 44m

by Trebs Thu Aug 16, 2012 12:51 pm

There goes the idea of pairing Hulk and Falcao then...

by The Special Juan Thu Aug 16, 2012 12:52 pm

Signing a player from releases doesn't count as a TP IMO.

by **Hero** Thu Aug 16, 2012 12:54 pm

Question for everyone...

What preferred position would you class Messi and Ronaldo as?

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Thu Aug 16, 2012 12:55 pm

Of course signing a player from releases isn't a TP lol. It's just signing someone from releases

by Trebs Thu Aug 16, 2012 12:55 pm

I'd have Messi just behind a striker. Ronaldo would be on the left wing.

by Gregers Thu Aug 16, 2012 12:57 pm

Messi as second striker. Ronnie as left or right wing but with license to roam where he wants

Looking at values on tm there would once have been a time that Lampard would have been unavailable given the current rules of this league!

At least that would have stopped Bull trying to offload him in Every deal possible.

Interesting blog. Do you think it's true? I don't.

This one preaches a similar line.

by Gregers Thu Aug 16, 2012 1:37 pm

Very interesting TSJ, I think thats definitely the case

Anyone got a cam or creative playmaker available. Happy to spend £20-25 million +

by FIFA Diva Thu Aug 16, 2012 1:38 pm

Marvin Martins

by Trebs Thu Aug 16, 2012 1:38 pm

Dzogaev or Muller perhaps Gregers?

by sodhat Thu Aug 16, 2012 1:38 pm

Ozil?

by FIFA Diva Thu Aug 16, 2012 1:40 pm

Mighty and Sodhat if you are really going to sell Ozil or Muller between £20 and £25m I'll bid for them.

Just don't be whoring your players out just to show everyone that you've got the preety wife at home..

by Trebs Thu Aug 16, 2012 1:41 pm

Not for 20-25m, I would want p/ex too.

I would like a second star player bid as well

by TwisT Thu Aug 16, 2012 1:54 pm

One more signing, then Real Ale is ready for Season 3

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Thu Aug 16, 2012 1:57 pm

Very bold move to sell Song TwisT, with him seemingly off to Barca. Interested to see what you are doing at Real Ale

Very interesting indeed. I wouldn't shed a tear for Barca and Real if the league went bust though. What comes around....

by **Hero** Thu Aug 16, 2012 2:00 pm

Moura could go for the right price Gregers

I think he will struggle at Barca that is why Olly. I am thinking of playing 3-2-1-3-1 next season. How about that for a formation lol
