by Marky Fri 25 Jan 2013, 5:06 pm

by Guest Mon 28 Jan 2013, 4:25 pm

no..

1. you dont have £20m

2. I want at least £30m, but still i may not accept.

by Guest Mon 28 Jan 2013, 4:32 pm

What about Buffon + Dante + Cassano = Chiellini

im happy to accept that, can you confirm please Smile

by Guest Mon 28 Jan 2013, 4:44 pm

i would prefer to have £30m cash to be honest

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Tue 29 Jan 2013, 10:03 am

Did you see another goal and another MOTM performance from Florenzi at the weekend?

Shut your word hole! lol im annoyed you got him before me, thank you for making it worse lol

by Guest Thu 31 Jan 2013, 7:01 pm

no way, Chiellini is much better

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Fri 01 Feb 2013, 9:28 am

PM'ed you mate.

by Fernando Fri 01 Feb 2013, 11:32 am

i shall pass he's prbs worth double that despite his tm price thumbsup

by Fernando Fri 01 Feb 2013, 12:04 pm

12.5m + Balzaretti for Howedes
ENQ

Gives you money to go buy Chiellini if CF Would sell Whistle

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Fri 01 Feb 2013, 12:35 pm

by Fernando Tue 05 Feb 2013, 11:35 am

Your lawyer offers

Felipe Luis 13m
Javier Zanetti 1.5m
Antonio Cassano 10.5m

by **Afro** Tue 05 Feb 2013, 11:37 am

Thanks

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Tue 05 Feb 2013, 1:11 pm

Could the Buffon + Verratti = Mannone + Kroos deal still be on the table?

Err I honestly dont know. As your aware I have my strategic plan to build my team.
If the deal above was back on & to take place id have to re-asses my whole strategy for my end result team.
Errr, let me know. Ive got something in mind

by Gregers Tue 05 Feb 2013, 1:15 pm

Pirlo or Verratti = Benat (can add cash)

by Gregers Tue 05 Feb 2013, 1:26 pm

Would Verratti be available for cash then?

by El Dios Tue 05 Feb 2013, 1:27 pm

would need to improve my 1st team to get him

by Guest Tue 05 Feb 2013, 1:58 pm

Depends...would need to be Cole not Baines. What were you thinking?

by Guest Tue 05 Feb 2013, 2:02 pm

Verratti = Cole

How to balance that deal?

by Guest Tue 05 Feb 2013, 3:51 pm

£30m for Tevez?

by sodhat Wed 06 Feb 2013, 9:52 am

I was the one that offered that initially wasn't I?

I'll have to think about that now, because it seems the versatility of Marchisio helped a lot in me winning the cup. Particularly with the formation I played, which I actually think suits my team the best.

by sodhat Wed 06 Feb 2013, 10:09 am

Verratti + Cassano + £4m?

by sodhat Wed 06 Feb 2013, 10:17 am

I will confirm

If i think about it any longer I'll go off the idea but I have money and I want to shake my team up a bit

I got 10m for the cup right? Because I added 10m...

by Guest Wed 06 Feb 2013, 10:20 am

Can't believe you made that deal Afro...big loss for you I reckon!

by sodhat Wed 06 Feb 2013, 10:24 am

I did add it, thank you

I don't think it was a huge loss for Afro, comparatively I think it was an alright deal on both sides. Marchisio probably helped win me the cup more than any other player with his versatility.

by **Afro** Wed 06 Feb 2013, 10:25 am

Nah. Neither would be playing for me next season in my first choice team now I have Jovetic and Pirlo in, whilst Marchisio has been the best player in Serie A this season so will stroll in ahead of Toulalan.

Value wise it's £23.5m v £27.5m in my favour (Verratti is probably a £15m player though, so it's about even).
Fo me player wise it's two subs for one starter.
For Sod gets two starters for one starter.

I think both sides will be happy with that deal

by sodhat Wed 06 Feb 2013, 10:31 am

I was the one hesitating on the deal because of Marchisio's value. 27.5m in the league is the most on a single player probably.

by **Afro** Wed 06 Feb 2013, 10:34 am

Nearly...

Kroos - £28m
Marchisio - £27.5m
Pedro, Jovetic, Reus - £26.5m

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Wed 06 Feb 2013, 11:00 am

Marchisio
=
£30m
ENQ

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Wed 06 Feb 2013, 12:24 pm

Toulalan + Florenzi + ? = Kroos

Not overly interested in Toulalan, unfortunately I see him as just "making up the numbers" in this deal.

Im quite picky when it comes to a midfielder to replace Kroos as you can tell.

by sodhat Wed 06 Feb 2013, 12:30 pm

To further increase my Italian numbers, what would you do for Barzaghli?

Cash plus player? Cash?

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Wed 06 Feb 2013, 12:44 pm

Buffon & Barzagli are interested for obvious reasons but not replacements.
Looking around the Fgn's its still hard to replace Kroos.
It would take 1 x 19.5 to replace him. Ive got my eye on an 16m tm value player who you know but thats it, I struggle after that.

A lot of interest ion Kroos but not enough quality I want, going to be hard to get him if im honest

by Trebs Wed 06 Feb 2013, 4:16 pm

How much cash are you after for Toulalan?

by Trebs Wed 06 Feb 2013, 4:43 pm

No thanks then.

I was thinking of if I lost Bender to get Kroos of a replacement, but I can get a cheaper player.

Also thank you for your sportsmanship regarding Kehl.

by Trebs Wed 06 Feb 2013, 4:45 pm

No thanks. I don't rate Toulalan that highly.

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Thu 07 Feb 2013, 2:26 pm

Marchisio
=
£30m
ENQ

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Thu 07 Feb 2013, 2:57 pm

You made the same offer yesterday and nothing has changed from my end

Oh, I forgot.

How about:
Marchisio
=
Angelo Ogbonna + Jack Cork + £8.4m
ENQ

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Thu 07 Feb 2013, 3:01 pm

It would take something extraordinary to make me sell him

extraordinary hey....How about a Golden Ticket to Azzy & Viva's Chocolate Fudge Factory!

OK, I cant facilitate a deal, It be losing too much to get 1 player. Damn Im annoyed you got a deal worth Soddy first

by GSC Fri 08 Feb 2013, 4:50 pm

Albs is NFS sorry

by Guest Mon 11 Feb 2013, 8:16 pm

Hi mate

I'll take the £13m for Cole

by Gregers Mon 11 Feb 2013, 9:21 pm

Filipe Luis, cash and eliseu? Enq only

by sodhat Mon 11 Feb 2013, 9:27 pm

I would consider cash plus de sciglio for Filipe. Interest you at all?

by sodhat Tue 12 Feb 2013, 9:07 am

How about if I offered £19m for Filipe and Dante?

by sodhat Tue 12 Feb 2013, 9:12 am

How about £16m and De Sciglio?

Negotiable, but I need 16m left in my kitty for today so cash wise that is the most I can pay up front.

by sodhat Tue 12 Feb 2013, 9:16 am

Perin is worth more than Leali so I wouldn't chuck it in as a straight swap. I would do it if it shaves a couple of million off the price though.
