Fulham - Furious League

Don't get stroppy mate, it's only a game.

Fact is Podolski is better than Pjanic and Reyes, so even if you did construct a deal I would have sided with Everton. It's just a matter of timing, would have thought you'd rather know earlier in the day so you can pursue other targets.

Afro, did you get out of the wrong side of bed this morning mate?

And if you see my offer it is only an enquiry as I think Hamsik is a better player than Ashley Young but I might be better off squad wise with another winger than an AM.

I am calm now, but it's not a good thing that I got so pee'd off, so I am going to hand the reins over to someone else.

Don't do that mate..

I have never seen you get angry Afro, your normally as cool as a cucumber. But I didn't take it personally, an it's all cool. Pretty sure I have seen you jump on peoples deals in the past lol.
If you don't want to run the league anymore I totally understand as it's a big commitment, although I must say I have enjoyed the league the most since you took over the running of it.

I posted that before I saw the message you posted on my page

A contractor by any chance?

Well I hope you get the promotion mate. That is a pretty big salary for a permanent employee, what is his job title?

How do mucka,

Can probably do somethin in regards to Adriano and Capel.

Isla I really want to keep hold of for now, the number of positions he can play in makes him really useful.

Hi Afro,
I know you asked me about Hugo Rodallega last week. Now the final game tactics have been submitted I am willing to sell, however I had a lawyers offer of £14M just 2 weeks ago so would be looking to sell for the same amount.

Also, can I add the £5M for Romero?

P.s. How did Evertons new signings do on the weekend? Did they even play?

I didn't think you will be interested at that price. But I think I will just hold onto him until I get another lawyers offer(if I ever do lol).

Okay no worries on Romero, let me know when you can.

I saw that Greek guy nearly snatching the winner for you.

Warnock is poop, Baines adds more defensively and going forward. Some of Fabio C's decisions as England manager have been baffling!

I'll wait and see tbh, it is a deal which interests me but I want to spend some cash and offload a couple of players first. Will see what foreign offers brings.

Thanks Afro, can you confirm it please.

Sorry for the late reply but Negredo is not going anywhere yet, he is yet to start a game for me.

Alright, deal time then

Gignac + Flamini + £5m
=
Gilardinho + Sandro + Naughton

I think I'd prefer to keep Walker as my backup RB as he's getting games IRL and showing promise. Naughton also a decent right back?

Also, Shawcross is available at 10m if you want.

Gignac + Flamini + £25m (or + Romero + £15m instead of + £25m)
=
Gilardinho + Sandro + Walker+ Stekelenburg


Alright, I like the offer mate. Thing is, I want to be sure of Adler before selling Stekelenburg. Out of curiosity, how do the two match up in your ratings? Adler vs Stek

Gignac + Flamini + £35m
=
Gilardinho + Sandro + Walker + Stekelenburg

And I get the option of Stekelenburg for 15m should the Adler bid fail.

Deal mate, probably fair both sides.

Players will be available for cash.. but the trouble is I'm not sure who to go for in foreigns that would improve my side?

yeah the deal includes shawcross, sorry for the confusion

I have noticed some improvements being made at Fulham and I must say Toffees are starting to get a little worried.
This is Evertons first league title since??????

Marchena - 7m?

Have I won the league then? :S

I think I might have to take Stekelenburg back for 15m as agreed.

Unless you can think of a keeper I can get in foreigns?

In a normal situation I would definately loan you one of my 4 CB's with a re-call option to cover injuries. However I'm not sure what the Champions League is going to entail, if it means more injuries I'm going to have to keep my whole squad. I want some more clarity on that before I agree to any loans.
If it's the same kind of setup as last season I would happily loan you a CB.

Gervinho will be staying as I'm on my way to signing the Arsenal squad with him Ramsey and Mertesacker I only have about twenty to go

Santon will be neede for the cup sorry, but if I get knocked out of the cup early then he will be made available for loan.

I will be holding fire until I get something in writing lol.

Did Santon play last night for Newcastle? I want to see how he does.

sandro = 9mill

CB Juan
CB William Gallas
CB Cristian Zapata
DM Daniele De Rossi
DM Lassana Diarra
AM Steven Gerrard (c)
AM Dimitri Payet
WG Jesus Navas
WG Charles N'zogbia
FW Lukas Podolski
ST Fernando Torres

---

Zapata, Payet and N'Zogbia would be available in a decent deal. Interested in Marchena, Pjanic and Lucho

Who do you rate higher - Zapata or Marchena?

De Rossi is a 'big' player though.. Lucho and Pjanic are not.

I could do something like

Payet + Zapata
=
Pjanic + Marchena

if you like?

Hi Afro willing to sell you Ethrington for £5.5m if you intrested.

Oh yeah for voting, why don't we all PM Nick our voting and by 5pm he posts it on the voting page and whoever didn't pm him by that time has to post it public. What do you say? Afterall you are looking for ways to improve.

I can't see anything for De Rossi, sorry bud.

Could perhaps do:

Pranjic + Marchena
=
Nzogbia + Zapata?

I was previously interested in Naldo so I could do something with Adriano for him if you want?

In real life Naldo's value has been plummeting, Adriano is worth more so I'm not interested in stumping up cash as well for him.

signing stekelenburg for 15m

Sorry, but I didn't realise I'd missed out on europe altogether, so I can't sign a decent goalie.

I wanted Adler really if I'm honest, and I think I'll struggle to sign most goalies if I'm honest without euro football. Stekelenburg definitely is rated on here so I think I'd rather play it safe.

Sorry, you could go for one of those keepers you mentioned though if you think they'd join without europe?

any p/exs of interest for gamberini? i wouldn't mind him actually

I think I'll leave Gamberini, find a cheap backup fourth choice from foreigns, I'm happy with Coates as my backup CB at the moment

I can't do the Adriano = Pranjic one as I've just got in Adriano and Smartest might get funny.

I sold Criscito last night.. I would have done the Pranjic + £10 mil = Criscito as well

Sorry mate.

I have never got funny with anybody before so I'm not sure why he would think that?

^^^ P.s are you confusing Pranjic with Pjanic?

Its fair enough as otherwise I could say to somebody not in Europe will you give me X if I go and buy Y to swap with you. If they say yes I can go and buy him with no intention of keeping him.
But I don't think there is any punishment for that.

Pjanic + Gago/Sandro = Diarra

or

Pjanic + Gago/Sandro + Reyes = De Rossi

--

Would rather keep hold of Diarra + De Rossi mate, Pjanic won't start.

Sergio Romero
Dedryck Boyata (ENG) (U21)
John Flanagan (ENG) (U21)
Kyle Walker (ENG)
Lucho Gonzalez
Miralem Pjanić
Sandro
Jose Antonio Reyes

do you have cash or p/ex prices on any of these?

no thanks then

Alright, I'll sell you Nacho Monreal if you want a left back? Just let me sign Baines/

I'm willing to pay a lot for Baines is all Was trying to stop you bidding for Baines to prevent it costing a ridiculous price and give you a good left back

i may probably regret this, but im gonna have to say no on flanno, i havent got much cash left, and i now need to focus on getting a good few more midfielders in and possibly another striker or 2
