Furious League

I agree Hazard > Ben Arfa though
Thats an interesting question Viva, I am not from the Robson era but am interested to hear Afros input
Mouse dont worry, let them think your the underdog and then blam pow pow!! Gunshots up in the air Fulham walk away with the title and Nicks Mum!

Tottenham manager sits down for his pre season press conferance. He takes his seat and when attacked by a jurno with a million and one questions, Nick Fury reaches into his pocket and pulls out a napkin? wait, he unfolds his piece of A4 papar and said

"It is clear they are nervous about the third season because we topped the table in the last."

Smarts playing mind games with Nick? - No
Nick already cracking up? - No
Will Spurs even finish top 3? - Si, Numero Uno
Will the lack of pace by Spurs CB be exposed? - No
Will Spurs F.B get caught with thier attacking play? - No
Is this the poorest Spurs strike force since 1953? - No
When the Modric hype dies down will he be classed as an above average player? - No
Am I getting to you Nick? - No
Are my questions denting your title bid? - No
Do you need to spend on another striker? - No

"No more questione Mr Viva"

Nick Fury then followed with an attack on "Mr Viva"

"Mr Viva is getting nervous. Mr Viva complan about fixtures and this and that and this, I say we let Mr Viva pick the fixture list, then he complan about what?"

I might be on Blops tonight, might go watch transformers tho so dunny know like.

Should Viva or Afro take over as caretaker managers of Bolton? I nominate them as they are the only managers I trust (slightly) to do a good job.

Sold Bent to fund the rest of my side! Bent on his own wasn't going to win the league, a more balanced team could.

And Bryan Robson v Roy Keane. Very difficult call that one. Both very influential, both similar type players. If forced, Roy Keane won more so I will go for him.

1st game of the season tomorrow then?
Somebody do Boltons tactics for them?

Are we playing games this weekend then?

If so, then TPs are closed with immediate effect.

Smarts - will PM you on the Free Agents tomorrow morning

I think we should start tomorrow, the league is taking to long to start.

I think ive got a team worthy of challenging for the top this season.

Im willing to become caretaker of Bolton if allowed. FC has been on, hes on Premier League but didnt reply to me so guess hes leaving.

I want to start ASAP, but we NEEEEEEEEED a Bolton manager, Anyone know anyone who can step in

Randy, just caretaker them until we find a new manager. We have been advertising for a while Nick and no biters so I think we need to get the league started.

Randy your team has improved a lot, but if you win the league I would be stunned.

Does that make you feel at ease?

this is my fav bit:

"“It is a transfer period. Everybody has their cards in [their] hands, hoping for the big transfer. There is nothing moving yet. The period will me more active at the end of July when we will need to really strengthen the team."

Dont you need to strengthen anytime possible stupid squirrel

Bolton link up and open to business.

I would imagine Arsenal are waiting to see what happens on Fabregas first Nick. If we can get a good price for him and he moves then I would imagine replacing him would be the priority over any other targets Wenger might have up his sleeve. I would expect Arsenals signings to be a lot better quality than what Utd have bought so far though, Ashley Young? lol

You laugh at Ashley Young but he will tear you apart, wait, is that Ashley Young's through ball to Darren Bent who makes it 2 nil to the Villa OHHHHHHHHHHHH and that wasnt just an assist notched up for A.Young but it also assisted in Arsenil losing 3rd place and auto CL qualification BOOM.

Smarts, we are the Champ19ns, you are the loosers. We have made signings, good ones, we attract players like Phil Jones who reportedly told Wenger No I want to go to Manchester United. All your trying to do is keep players from leaving Nicklas Bendtner £12m even my Arsenil mate say sell him for £8m as he aint even worth that.

I told you we did that on purpose as we are going for Europa to try and win something lol

But yeah don't want any rushed singings, I'm expecting Fabregas to leave this summer but can't go about replacing him until that happens. If Nasri/Clichy leave as well then it could be a busy summer

Man Utd out:
Hargreaves
VDS
Scholes
Kusczak

In:
DeGea, P.Jones, A.Young

Cost £50M

I think Man Utd will spend another £20-£30M this summer and if they sell players like Berbatov then possibly more.

O'Shea, Gibson, Brown all look like leaving too Smartest. I reckon Berba will go.

Welbeck and Cleverley coming into the club, Bebe will be unleashed next season, show his promise and be the next Ronaldo like Carlos Quieroz said he would.

I think were one signing off being done, unless Berba goes.

Arsenal on the other hand, say if you sell Cescelona and Nasri (£35 + £20 lets say £55m ish to play around with), but Wengers stubborn attitude stops him paying £40m for likes of Hamsik or Pastore and they go to the likes of Chelsea/Real/Barce or maybe even Manchester United.

Bebe gone on loan to Turkey aint he? I think Man Utd could do with another signing or two their weakness is going to be CM IMO. I can see Chelsea and Man City improving a lot in the summer and I think it will be really difficult next season.
Even if they go I don't think you will see big names coming in but I trust Wenger will make us competitive again next season.
Last season was great but next season could be even better with a resurgent Liverpool, Spurs doing alright and Man City + Chelsea adding to their teams.

Sky Sports: Clichy close to joining Man City
Sky Sports: Man City intrested in Nasri

I wouldn't mind Nasri, think he is a good player but we need a proper CM. I would love it if we signed Scweinsteiger!!

Thanks for the tactic reminder Smarts and reccomendation for Bolton.

See you girls tomorrow.

done the tactics. Im gonna defo need to buy some players as my squads to small. If anyones selling some players let me know.

Whaaaa Ya Say Bumbaclart!!!

Goodness gracious the papers. Where the cash at? Where the stash at? N****, pass that before you get your grave dug from the main thug, .357 slug

Gimme the Loot Gimme the Loot

AHHHHHHHH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

That is the funniest thing ive heard all week, AHHHHHHH HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Whagwan Badmen!!

See Sunderland have been really busy in the transfer window and man do we need it.

Thats the one

Win what? Emirates cup?

USB for Blackberry Bold? Afro you are good at finding things on Amazon find me one please

Was popping guys. Man City buying Clichy & Nasri after Adebarndoor and Toure. Soon they will have a team of ex Arsenal players.

Soon they will have a team of ex Arsenal players - I hate to say it but soon they will most likely have a team with ex Arsenal players who ACTUALLY win a trophy

Gervinho reveals his desire to win the Emirates Cup made move to Arsenil too hard to turn down

Didn't they win a trophy last season Nick? The F.A. Cup?

Yeah but Nasri and Clichy didnt hahahahaha

Free agents - whats happening with them?

An neither did Adebayor and Toure!!!

Stretching before Football actually helps lol, before my warm up would consist of booting the ball as hard as I can, give a bit of abuse to opposition and a fag and the next few days I was dying couldn't move.

Feel a bit like a p**** jogging around the pitch, doing the leg stretchings like I'm some professional player.

I'm hoping we bring in Gervinho though Would be a great signing, however I'm not sure where that will leave Theo

Gervinho - RVP - Walcott

Theo needs to leave Arsenil to become a better player. Hes made very little progress since joining IMO

Theo had a good season last year Nick. Was one of Arsenals better players, the only problem is he is to slight and keeps picking up niggling injuries which hurt his progress. Not sure if he can play from the left Fan, he normally knocks the ball outside the fullback and burns passed them but Henry was right footed and used to cut in from the left so could work I suppose.

The Free Agents have decided upon their choice of clubs as follows:

Simone Pepe – Juventus £5m
Owen Hargreaves – Stoke £4m
Marcos Senna – Villareal (new contract) £4m
David Vaughan – Blackburn £3m
Thomas Hitzlsperger – Fulham £3m
Tomas Kuszczak – Fulham £3m
Jay Bothroyd – Fulham £2m
Marco Donadel – Napoli £2m
Kyle Lafferty – Tottenham £2m
Bradley Johnson – Blackburn £500k
Richard Kingson – Birmingham £500k
Daniel de Ridder – Fulham £500k


You have committed to signing these players, so please add them to your team and reduce your budget by the stated amount

Stoke = £4m
Blackburn = £3.5m
Fulham = £8.5m
Tottenham = £2m
Birmingham = £0.5m

If you do not have sufficient budget, then you need to raise funds through releases. You have a contract agreement with the player that cannot be broken.

Some strong additions there, happy with that.

OH WELL...NEVERMIND

Simone Pepe – Juventus £5m
Owen Hargreaves – Stoke £4m
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I knew you would bottle it and sell Pepe to Juventus, what a joke clubs here are more deserving, I knew it you wanted to be Careful Colin!!!!

An I'm not signing Hargreaves at all, I don't care fine me all you want just because we are intrested in a player does not mean we have to sign him. Next time anyone has even a gnats pube intrest in any player in this league they will have to pay full wack whatever the manager thinks is fair price.

I already have 2 DM at my club, what reason is thier for Hargreaves to join me? An I don't have any money. What am I supposed to do? Sell myself?

You have a contract agreement with the player that cannot be broken.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What??? What rubbish is this? What agreement? All I said was I am intrested in a player that don't mean I am in a contract with them. What a joke and a big fat lie. You won't get a penny from me.

I'd pay a tenner for your services Viva

Mighty if I'm worth a tenner you must be worth a £1000, that pic where you sleeping

I am so angry at Afro and Smartest, forcing me to buy players I don't want to.

Viva - when you've calmed down and reread the rules of Free Agents that have been there for a couple of weeks and were explained to you specifically when you asked, could you either release some players to fund Hargreaves, or find someone to buy Hargreaves from you.

Viva, the Free Agent page clearly stated the rules.

http://www.goal.com/en/news/11/transfer-zone/2011/07/01/2555679/manchester-united-set-to-battle-manchester-city-by-making

Hope that is true, should drive the price up ^^^

Viva, I will buy Hargreaves off you for £0.5M?

I know that you two done this on purpose, you knew I didn't want him but made me sign him to weaken my bank!!!

Smarts are you trying to be funny?

Ok what I will do is sign Hargreaves.
