Why did you release Bakambu and bring in a worse player nando

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue 17 Oct 2017, 12:38 pm

Tempted by my two lawyers - Kongolo and Mercado. If anyone wants to offer me something tastier I may be even more interested

Out of interest, which one are you saying is worse?

by Holymiky Tue 17 Oct 2017, 1:00 pm

Think he means Falcao

Falcao imho

by **Afro** Tue 17 Oct 2017, 1:02 pm

Okay.

Falcao brings the added bonus of being able to negotiate results with the opposition

by **Afro** Tue 17 Oct 2017, 1:04 pm

And regardless of whether Falcao or Bakambu is better, I would guess that it freeing up £2m cash to help pay for Callejon was part of Nando's decision making

by TwisT Tue 17 Oct 2017, 1:10 pm

Yeah I think the same actually. I wonder if I didn't have Vardy if Nando would have gone for him instead of Falcao (both 13.5m)

by **Afro** Tue 17 Oct 2017, 1:17 pm

Falcao is tarnished by his time at United and Chelsea, but in reality that was a minimal number of games during a period where he was rehabilitating from a major injury whilst still trying to play at the very top ahead of a world cup.

He's not the same player now as he was when in the Premier League. He's much nearer the Atletico player.

Does bring back memories of the M'Vila era

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue 17 Oct 2017, 1:21 pm

Mikel and Giovinco are gonna be released

Anybody want them before i do

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue 17 Oct 2017, 1:28 pm

England's next great player is SAS's heart

by **Afro** Tue 17 Oct 2017, 1:30 pm

And so the decline of SAS towards Norwich begins.....

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue 17 Oct 2017, 1:33 pm

Honestly come January he ain't gonna be a Nodge player. He's wayyyyy too good for us

by TwisT Tue 17 Oct 2017, 1:37 pm

Going to Aston Villa then

by Holymiky Tue 17 Oct 2017, 1:53 pm

Trebs is going to vote later hopefully instead of Bam.

Then I can post the remaining results. Olly will get the majority win against Bam.

by TwisT Tue 17 Oct 2017, 1:56 pm

Is Bam likely to come back?

by **Afro** Tue 17 Oct 2017, 1:56 pm

Anyone heard from Bam - he hasn't been on the site for nearly two weeks and I can't remember him saying he wouldn't be around.

by **Afro** Tue 17 Oct 2017, 1:57 pm

TwisT wrote:Is Bam likely to come back?

He's normally reliable for tactics and votes, and normally lets us know when he is not going to be about.

by Holymiky Tue 17 Oct 2017, 2:06 pm

Yeah hes usually quite reliable. I hope hes okay as like Afro said, he usually lets us know.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue 17 Oct 2017, 2:08 pm

Hmm he hasn’t even posted on the nfl section

Maybe someone can Pm him

by Holymiky Tue 17 Oct 2017, 2:10 pm

I tried on Friday Olly, hasnt even opened it

by **Afro** Tue 17 Oct 2017, 2:14 pm

Looking at his posting history, he hasn't posted anything since the 4th

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue 17 Oct 2017, 2:18 pm

I may have to alter my team name to RIP Sodhat and Bam

by **Afro** Tue 17 Oct 2017, 2:20 pm

SODBAMRIP

Sounds like painful buggery

Is that the +2 win?

Why aren't we having scorelines?

What's wrong with Olly getting a 2-0 win with goalscorers chosen by Miky for a unanimous vote?

It's not Boxing.

by Marky Tue 17 Oct 2017, 2:37 pm

Hero beat me via split decision FFS Laugh

Surely 2-1 would be a good enough score to use

by Holymiky Tue 17 Oct 2017, 2:40 pm

We used this setup in the old league and it worked fine mate tbh

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue 17 Oct 2017, 2:41 pm

it'd be cool to have goalscorers

by **Afro** Tue 17 Oct 2017, 2:43 pm

Call it 2-0 and 1-0/2-1 if you want. It still amounts to the same thing.

Assigning goalscorers is really pointless though, and always has been IMO

by Brooksey79 Tue 17 Oct 2017, 2:45 pm

Question of the day

which two teams share the record for the highest attendance for a football match at Old Trafford

by TwisT Tue 17 Oct 2017, 2:47 pm

I am guessing it is not Man U......could it be when Old Trafford was used for a Champions league final? That is as far as my knowledge goes

by Brooksey79 Tue 17 Oct 2017, 2:48 pm

you're right it's not Man Utd, but it is domestic football

by **Afro** Tue 17 Oct 2017, 2:49 pm

It was for an FA Cup semi final about 100 years ago, but can't remember the teams. Was someone like Wolves and Huddersfield

by **Afro** Tue 17 Oct 2017, 2:51 pm

Or Notts County

by Brooksey79 Tue 17 Oct 2017, 2:53 pm

it was wolves

by Marky Tue 17 Oct 2017, 3:15 pm

I know this was from the Transfer thread but worth dragging over here

Afro wrote:Nice - I can see Napoli being this year's Monaco in terms of players being popular. They are playing really good football too.

Can see them giving City a reality check tonight

I've had a bit of Napoli at 6/1

6/1?! That's great value for a team who have won all but one game this season, and even that one defeat, they should have won the game

by Fernando Tue 17 Oct 2017, 4:23 pm

Anyone want my 1 & only Youth Player in Ferran Torres Whistle

by TwisT Tue 17 Oct 2017, 4:24 pm

Any ETA on when we will get the other results?

How much do you want for him?

Where did you get 6/1? I can only gets 4s with Paddy Power or Sky Bet

A reasonable amount i guess considering been linked with Barca & Madrid. So will probs make him rather valuable in the future.
