For example, Isco, I've no intention of selling him but if I did why would I even consider anything below 40mil???

On the 1 hand I have a player in a position on the field, a box ticked off if you will, on the other hand if I sold him for 40mil, who would sell me a player like him and still have change left over? Lets just say I sold him and went for say Ozil, you seriously think I would get him for 40mil? Or Xavi/Iniesta....


These things have to be done

Totally agree, I had accepted a bid for Muniain (20yr old 90 rated) for 17m + Pandev - I immediately thought to myself "Dude, WTF?" and cancelled - it would take an outrageously ridiculous offer because there isn't many 90+ rated players (worth having) at the unmanaged clubs

Just under an hour to kick off and the travelling Anzhi fans are in good spirits as they enter the Allianz Arena for what surely will be an annihilation from their Division 1 opponents.

Rumours of a change of formation from the Anzhi coach tonight in response to his sides 3-0 defeat at the hands of Chelsea in their last outing. We will know soon enough whether he has set his men up right for the job at hand.

Ah that place ain't so scary, if I can score 3 goals with 3 shots then how hard can it be

As the excitement builds in this fantastic stadium here in Liverpool, the fans begin to enter with high hopes....


The opposition tonight are in very good form coming into this and are not pulling any punches, they are sending out the big boys to get the job done.


So that's Everton taken care of.....



As I bring my Malaga team to the ****hole of Liverpool for a game agains a pure crap bunch of muppets I'm hoping for a 20-0 result!!!

Yours Truely

A Utd fan!!!!!!!!!!!!

Noticed that myself, i guess nobody wants to sell a good player on the cheap so they look for as much as possible at the start, youl notice the players who nobody are interested in have already started to slowly come down in price.

But have you noticed most of the big clubs aren't selling, just buying 90+ players from the little teams. Offering fringe players as p/e. Smaller clubs have to put astronomical prices on their players, otherwise we wouldn't be able to replace them. If I sold my 90+ player for 15 million plus a 30 year old with no chance of improving, and then went to a big club trying to buy a player over 90 with 15 million it would be rejected straight off.

I get where you guys are coming from, someone made an offer for one of my players(ill not say what club or player) but even if the guy offered double what he did i would turn it down because of how important that player is.
I mean i made a list last night of players i wanted to get and straight away discarded the ones at managed clubs, mainly because managed clubs want cash up front(and a lot at that) whereas i can just go to an unmanaged club and trade 2 fringe players for a similar player.

Id imagine theres going to be a frantic rush for all the "undervalued" players at unmanaged clubs for the first few months at least.

wnolan1992

wnolan1992 steered Wolfsburg to victory against SS Lazio.
Wolfsburg beat SS Lazio 2 - 1 in their Friendly fixture.
Diego scored a goal and was later voted Man of the Match for his performance.
Helmes was also on the scoresheet for his side.

Was sweating it there towards the end, a really tight game, Lazio go down to 10 men, we get a free kick in the dying minutes and bang it in the net.

Delighted I didn't sell Diego to Madrid now.

Daemos

Schalke with a 4-0 loss

I did however win the Charity Shield in my other league, so it's hard to be upset. Better formation needed, though

2 ways of doing that...

1. Sign yaya toure, man can dominate 3 midfielders by himself!!!!

2. Match em up

Click on the player on the pitch view in the tactics page, a number of dots appear around the selection, click one to drag an arrow in that direction.

A 2-1 win away to Sporting Braga makes it 4 wins in 5 games for Newcastle. After conceding early Newcastle went on to dominate the game with 58% possession and the pressure told when first Cabaye equalised from the spot in the 29th minute before Michu sealed the win in the 53rd minute.

A worry for the Newcastle boss will be the sending off of Coloccini in the 30th minute which makes it 2 reds in the last 2 games

Udinese 2-0 Stuttgart

Van Der Vaart and Anelka scorers! Pinzi sent off, thats 2 games in a row I've had someone sent off! gna have to strengthen my team.

Pretty happy with the way Udinese have started off!

Was 2 nil down after 60mins, three subs come on, two of them score with the third assisting both within ten minutes only for the team to collapse in the last ten and concede two more

Also, forgot to mention 2 assists for Neymar. Just the beginning of him repaying his transfer fee:D
