The Lotion League Locker Room

First topic message reminder :

Shall I sort lawyers?

Same here, only ever planned for season 2 with my squad of kids but with TM updating when it did and especially the big gain I got on Aubameyang then it really accelerated my squad chances.

Right guys.

I realise I haven't gotten back to Afro or Hero regarding Kolasinac.

I want to do a deal on him if possible if not I can lawyer him so if interested then make some offers on my page and I'll look later.

Yeah, I think you were down there with me on starting squad value weren't you.

Be interesting to see those starting values

I won't be apart of season 2 Not really enjoying it that much honestly at the moment.

Is that due to the league itself or what? What don't you enjoy?

Just not enjoying it in general. Rarely get in league deals done unless someone is injured. it more wait for lawyers upgrade your team hand tactics in repeat really.]

Just not finding it fun at all tbh.

I mentioned it to Miky and Trebs earlier via PM but how about we adopt the JA injuries style?
With that 4 are drawn a month (1 for 1 week, 1 for 2 weeks, 1 for 3 weeks, 1 for 4 weeks) but the injury disappears if the player moves domestically, this certainly encourages domestic dealings.

I agree with you Nando and I think we need to make some changes personally. But let's discuss at the end of the season?

See for me this has been the first league in ages I've really enjoyed as it's really played to my strengths of going for younger players hoping they'll upgrade in value.

We also talked about rewarding domestics by giving extra TPs for them, rather than for accepting lawyers as is the case at the moment.

I'd like to try and make it so that it is less about buying players and waiting for a value increase to sell them. The turnaround of players in a squad is too high. In the space of one season, I have two of my original players left, and one of those is my backup keeper. I'd like to find a better balance between trading and working with what you have.

But agree with Trebs, lets address it at the end of the season.

Having only a small number of original players though is due to starting with a team that you don't want to keep the original players. If it was drafts etc then you keep more of them.
But I don't want to go down the line of you know what.

We could always swap all the teams around.

Bottom manager gets top team and so on...

Or the top teams best player gets lawyerd off for 50% tm value.

Or everyone's squads get lawyered at 50%? Then ban all those players from coming back into the league so we have to put some thought into new signings and it proves to everyone that we haven't exhausted all the options?

Anyone interested in Kolasinac before i lawyer him?

Another suggestion for encouraging domestics - lawyer offers should pass over to the new team

Wouldn't that make it pointless though? 

What's the point in trading a player over if you're just going to lawyer him? That's what I'm asking.

Because the person who has the lawyer offer may not have a target in mind for the cash and would prefer a player, while the person who wants the lawyer offer may need the cash

Eg I might have been interested in Kolasinac for one of my players, if I knew that I would get his lawyer offer .. especially if I had a bigger target in mind and knew I didn't have the cash for it by using my own lawyers .. may encourage a domestic deal or two

Im glad you explained that because i didn't know what you meant properly until you did tbh

I see what you're saying but personally im not sure if i would want to do that even if i was getting the player in the deal.

Depends on the player I guess .. 

Hypothetically, if I knew I could use my two lawyer offers and Kolasinac to get a 30m striker in, I may offer you Zlatan in exchange .. you might or might not be tempted with that but depends who it is!

Anyone able to give me a second opinion on a couple of players please?

Is it Tom Cleverly and Darren Gibson again?

They'd be fantastic signings

Anyone interested in Romeu before I sell him to bring in Tom Cleverley?

How much

Bit more than the lawyers offer I have on him

£6.75m?

Alright deal - please confirm

I can't do it sorry bud had a look at TM found someone else

Okay.

Anyone fancy doing a domestic deal? Fancy making some changes to my squad.

Bugger, forgot to sign my tps last night for this weekend's game

Can do.

Guys, I'm away over the weekend and Monday, so won't be able to post up tactics till Tuesday morning unless I receive them by the end of today, apologies

I can take them in if preferred?

I have sent mine to Bam already. Let me know if I need to send it to someone else as well

Anyone going to do sheep this week?

Happy for them to go to Hero instead, I'm going to be away from a laptop after I leave work today so probably leaving it a bit late if its Tuesday

I can swap you all around if you want.

It would be Hero this week, Miky next week and Bam on the last week of the season?

I think the last week of the season is my wedding week .. so I may be slightly occupied

Terrible excuse!!

Fair enough, I'll leave it as is and Hero can just do an extra shift!

Haha, thanks Hero!!

I'll take Isak in payment cheers.

Conveniently, Marco Verratti is on my wedding gift list, just saying Hero

And mine...

Well I'm already married so I got him first

I've been sent Trebs tactics will forward to Hero

Only have Afro's and Treb's tactics in so far.

I sent mine to bambino yesterday will forward them to you now.
