    PAY ATTENTION PEOPLE

    Shortlist Crouch because ...

    When his transfer ban expires, I'm removing his "unavailable for transfer" status

    Player Pos Club Age Rat TB Value
    CROUCH, Peter F(c) Spartak Moscow 32 88 7 NOV 6.5M

    The following is what I'll do:

    I'll set his status to "unknown" ( dont want to risk unsettling the poor lad by telling him he's transfer listed )

    All interested teams put in one bid and one bid only ( so no chance to change bids if you think you are getting outbid - make your bid count)

    teams can decide whether they bid disclosed or undisclosed.

    I'm open to cash only, player(s) only or player(s) and cash

    I'll review the offers and if one or more are good enough to accept I WILL sell crouch else he WILL stay @ SM!

    I strongly believe that CROUCH secured my promotion last season, I lost him 5-6 games from the end and nearly dropped out of top 6,
    he came back, steadies the ship and played a blinder in the 1/2 and final of the play-off - so its going to have to be worth my while.

    Your problem seems to be Fellaini, if you sell him to me you might start winning games ;)

    We can discuss this over a cup of coffee Harry Redknapp style xoxox

    I checked my post history and I've only made 11 posts in 5 months! Sorry about that, I'm usually in the Fantasy Football forum.

    No-one from my Everton team is for sale!

    Genuine question...

    What do people think I should expect should I put Jesus Navas up for sale? 92 rated AM/F on the right side. At Man City, so shouldn't drop and should possibly rise.

    The reason I'm tempted is I feel like I might get 2 good 90 rated players in return, so wondering if it would strengthen my overall team. I've also said in the past, I love players who can play multiple positions, and Navas is only able to play down the right.

    If I'd 55/60m I'd pay it

    Why bother making a bid if you're only going to withdraw after it's been accepted :confused:

    Jannik VESTERGAARD has completed his move to FC Porto from TSG 1899 Hoffenheim for 3,300,000 plus John RUIZ

    21yr old rated 85 .... Another riser hopefully.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,917 ✭✭✭✭GT_TDI_150

    Right, I'm following the trend and I've put Navas up.

    Much like Isco and them, it's not me saying he's outright for sale, but if there's a good p/e offer, I'll strongly consider it. Will not be a cash deal. I want at least a 90 rated player who can cover the right side of the field, and wouldn't mind a defender thrown in for good measure too ;)

    I'd also point out I paid 38m for him back a few months ago when that was considered crazy money to pay for a player of his rating, so won't be looking at offers for 40m (or 35m as one person offered two weeks ago :rolleyes:).

    Well...yeah. Look at who you've got in his position already.

    Ronaldo, Rodriquez, Di Maria can all play it and are rated 90+. I count about 7 players who could cover the role he plays :P

    Oh yeah I know, like I'm complaining about my chairman, not the price! I believe Navas is worth 55M-60M for sure!

    In other news:

    Paolo CANNAVARO has completed his move to Real Madrid from SS Lazio.

    Perfect back up for me since Pepe got a red card the other day..

    Classic Pepe! :pac:


    Thanks to the Lazio manager for this one! Did me a good deal. :)


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,713 ✭✭✭eireannBEAR

    The SMFA will block any transfer that they deem unusual or dubious. Their decision is aided by our Automated Transfer Monitoring System (ATMS) and is not personal or a judgement on you. The deal could have been blocked for a variety of reasons such as not being fair, too heavily weighted towards one club or issues with one or more of the managers accounts. If you feel the deal is fair and there are no issues with your account then the problem may be with the other managers account which the SMFA cannot discuss.
    The ATMS 'learns' over time about managers and how fairly they are playing the game. Managers that continually break the rules will find it harder and harder to deal with other managers and more and more of their transfers will be blocked.
    If the SMFA have blocked you from conducting transfers with another manager, they will not reverse their decision and it is advisable to look elsewhere to conduct your transfers.
