    Think everyone has outbid me at this stage!:D

    The most annoying were my bids for Eriksen and Munian. Had bids accepted for both then both were cancelled as managers took over!!!

    let them apply for the jobs 48hr after the players become available :cool:

    I suppose you'd need to look at when these teams were selected, some people consiously decided not to pick them and might now decide they made a mistake, if you go with offering the teams to anyone in the league then maybe player that picked their team before barca or spurs were selected sould not get a pick?

    1. MrMac84 : Dortmund
    2. Vito Corleone : Manchester City
    3. Yakult : Sunderland lol at them being 3rd pick
    4. Manzoor14 : Arsenal
    5. IvySlayer : West Brom
    6. icarus86 : Athletico Madrid
    7. MrKingsley : Tottenham
    8. danwhite88 : Liverpool
    9. WilcoOut : Barcelona

    My bad i should have said any managers starting at number 10 who choose on the basis that those teams were gone!

    I suppose danwhite88 might have wanted 'Bale Hotspurs' alright ... but you get what I mean, eg the lad with West Brom pick them when barca and spurs were still in it ... he on the other hand might have wanted Sunderland ** ROFL **


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,515 ✭✭✭tupac_healy


    Personally lads id prefer to see (especially barca) big teams ripped apart as it would make ALL the other big boys stronger and make the entire game world more unpredictable!


    A la neymar/Newcastle coupe!!!! All of a sudden bayern, real, utd have a genuine superstar at another club to worry about!!!!!

    Makes it more interesting, imagine if Messi went to arsenal or something, level playing field all round!!!!!



    And I have no vested interest in this as I could not afford anywhere near any of their better players!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,029 ✭✭✭Maldjd23


    Ill happily jump ship to Barca if the chance comes up!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,029 ✭✭✭Maldjd23


    1st thing ill do is buy Pandev since nobody else will!!!

    we should have known there would be problems with Yakult when he has third pick and Sunderland is put down

    But only the big clubs have the cash and bargaining players to get the big players at this stage. They would be divided up between the big clubs and only make the gap bigger between the teams.

    Sure I still have toulalon and isco to bargain with, 25mil + comibed in the transfer market, other teams could trade 2 top players for a superstar

    That's because with Neymar you were able to p/e players.. Most teams wouldn't have the financial capabilities to but any Barca player over 90...

    Yeah but that deal was worth 30 million, he paid for what he got

    Why so much?? I've done 91.2m worth of transfers for 22m + p/e's


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,917 ✭✭✭✭GT_TDI_150

    coz I only wanted to ship out player I didnt want at the club, I'm not p/e-ing my good players.


    actually forgot the dzeko+cash for mouthino swap in my above calc above

    so mine ends roughly at 85m of business for 35m and p/e's

    at least the dead wood and mouthino(nothing personal, just linked with spurs once to often in real lfe ;) ) are out of my squad


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,515 ✭✭✭tupac_healy

    Yeah, part exchange with 2 players if I remember correct and your not saying that someone wont get value for money for Messi, Xavi, Iniesta.... etc etc etc......

    Exactly the way it should be done when your working with a small budget, spot on man, did the exact same thing myself....

    The whole idea when you don't have millions in the bank is to get a strong first 11, then improve the subs, then add a few squad players


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,917 ✭✭✭✭GT_TDI_150


    I see there's 11 of us online ... can we expect some more transfers tonight I wonder? :D
