I would do with a deal involving any/all of those. This week is a bit tricky as with Neymar injuried and my back-up CB injured, I think I would leave myself really short of players, and as I am playing Sod this week, I need as strong a squad as possible.

I'll revisit next week after I know next week's injuries.

With four injuries, your squad is really tested and your side can be decimated. Last week I had Herrera, Iturraspe and Oscar all injured. My midfield looked decimated (despite my replacement being the real life Bilbao captain and defensive midfielder)

You only need to look at Marky's squad to see how 4 important injuries can cripple a side.

Methinks you'll be surprised to see how uncrippled my side actually is this week... Although it is weaker.

Lovren, Defour, Lukaku and Benteke out, brought in

Spoiler:

That's because you had the muscle to go out and buy them - most others don't have that option

Only one of those was purchased this week, the rest were already in my squad.

Dude, my tactics will be in.

If I still have my team then I will probably do this deal with you.
Check the homepage to see what im on about.

Bentekkers and Xavi for Neymar?

ENQ

Hi mate, hows about this for an ENQ:

Neymar (£44m) = Ilori (£6.2m) + Biglia (£7m) + Wanyama (£11.5m) + Stockdale (£2.2m) + Rodriguez (£5.7m) + Matthew Briggs (£1.4m) + £10.6m cash (me selling Berbatov for £5m + di Natale for £4m + £1.6m I already have)

So £44m Neymar for a total package of £44.5m. You could choose to accept Berba + di Natale as £9m of the package instead, or keep one or t'other perhaps.

What this deal gives you is a good keeper, two good midfielders, a good striker, a Lawyer-tastic CB, plus £10.6m cash (or less cash if you want to keep one or more good strikers).

To make room for this lot you can release players too, meaning you could end up with even more cash to splash.

Come back to me with an offer then

Rodriguez and Ilori are prime EOS Lawyer cases, that would give you £13m right there. Biglia and di Natale are very good, Wanyama could be an EOS lawyer case too...

Anyway, make me an offer

I'm interested in Neymar. Instead of me making an offer you wont like, make me an offer of what you would want from my side for him

Well there's no arguing with that

xx

I like how Marky got a 'I'll take a look', while I got the sexy version

He's just buttering you up Azzy. He knows that wont work on a much stronger minded manager like myself

I don't need buttering up, I am as slick as they come. And Viva knows that I will only consider fair proposals, so he will respect me in his approach. I am sure of it.

Love you honeypie xx

If you take that offer for Neymar, come over to Fool 'Em and spend some cash. I am willing to consider lots of deals.

Viva wrote:Gerrard  6m
Remy 7m
Carrick 8m

All enquiries

I have a lawyers offer of £11m for Carrick. You would have to beat that.
Remy & Gerrard, would take more than the offers above mate.

PM for you too, need your opinion.

Biglia's TM value is £7m, why would I sell him for £6m?

Pay the £7m and he's yours. I need no profit.

And Pirlo, I want £12m cash monies.

Neymar =
Mirallas, L. de Jong, Eriksen, Vlaar

Enq.

So what about Biglia then?

£40m for Neymar

ENQ

 

Okay, so make it £6m plus a wasteman from your squad - say, Mohamed Elneny (or whoever) that I can release to make up the difference. You don't lose anything, I get TM value. You get the player you want. Simples.

Cool

I'll raise the money and let you know when I am good to confirm

No, give me a chance to at least try to raise the money by the end of the day.

Yo  

I have the cash lined up now, so can do the deal.

Please confirm and let me know and I can confirm the other deal

Which is why I suggested using a player to make up the difference. Because that wouldn't be spending money.

Why would they void it? Surely that's not for you to decide.

Please just confirm it and stop messing

Well as you're being so insulting, I will no longer bother responding to any FC Basel transfer enquiries while you remain manager. Lucas Biglia is an Argentinian international of great renown, he has been in great form for Lazio, and I know that he is as insulted as I am. Good day sir.

Treb's is not about this week, hence why I posted the lawyers and injuries for him

PM now him then

There's a chain of deals waiting to happen which are waiting on you

Neymar = £12m
ENQ

Last sign in - unknown, last post 9.57pm last night - which was the injuries and lawyers, when he said he wasn't around and could someone stick them up for him

Well that is a bit naughty then. Your first post said we could do that deal, so I go to the work of being able to raise funds and now you say you have to wait for Trebs. You could have said that from the start.

Frankly I'm a bit disappointed with you

Neymar
=
Remy + Barton + Shaun Wright-Phillips + Jamie Mackie + Klose + Rubén Castro + £4m
ENQ

Remy is better than Neymar anyway, take that deal and run.

Azzy Mahmood wrote:Remy is better than Neymar anyway, take that deal and run.

Remy in form. Neymar cant hack the Barca pressure!

Neymar can't hack Scott Brown kicking him either, what a little girl

Azzy Mahmood wrote:Neymar can't hack Scott Brown kicking him either, what a little girl

 very true

I had a cash offer from Azzy for £20m, which is below TM value, so could have gone through.

Then I would release Herrera and Alonso to make up the difference.

You are still backtracking on the deal,

And my offer is retracted anyway

It was easy. You accept and confirm was all it needed

But you are a chicken and never intended to do it

We are keeping an eye for some balls for you

I know what this is all about you want to teach me a lesson,  making offers less than lawyers 

It wasn't. Mine was a genuine offer.

I wouldn't have bothered to go to all the trouble to try and raise the money "to teach you a lesson"

Ok have him for 40m.

VivaPaulScholes wrote:Ok have him for 40m.

Dear lord

I can't now as Azzy has withdrawn his offer

The Neymar deal did concern me. I was giving Afro £20m of his £40m. So don't get all crybaby about not having any balls
