KERSPLAT!

I generally don't play anyone below 90 or so the main reason being I want them fit for the following match. So I'd normally replace the 90% player and bring him on as a sub, meaning him and his replacement are 100% for the next game. Not sure if I'm doing it right but that's my take on it

I should be winning, but my squad is in ribbons, I don't know which players will actually be available for the match.
And in a knockout match it really is anyone's game.

I want to, would be a great achievement but he's a really good coach and he's had Villa playing great all year, I'm the favourite but it's not like I have a walk in the park.

If I lose, I lose to a great manager and I won't be too disappointed, but winning would be great.

Berbatov for sale in FC Twente. Need to replace with another CF as he is my main striker at the mo. will listen to any offers

I see changing clubs hasn't changed the fact that people propose deals and then cancel them after I accept them. Looks like I'll be sitting tight on the squad that I have after all

Sorry about cancelling the deal, I agreed another deal after I sent the counter offer to you and I didn't get a chance to withdraw my offer to you. Nothing personal, just a timing issue at my end.

Ah I know, there have been a lot of offers back and forth today. You were always likely to get one that peaked your interest more. I was being somewhat facetious with my remarks

I think, based on last season, that it will be . . .

Friday 13th June :eek:

And yes you will be playing my Genoa side!

Wilberto

I doubt a 35 year old, 87 rated, centre back would be of use to anyone but, just in case, I have bids in from externals on Souleymane Diawara of €4,711,200. So if anyone does want him just put in a bid of €4,712,000 but, as I said, I doubt he would be of use to anyone!

Oh and he won't be leaving until after tomorrow of course as he does have a play-off final to play in!


Like I said though, I doubt anyone would want him!

Once Mark SBR Wilmots heard there was a change in management at Newcastle he decided to make contact to try and strike a deal for one of the newcastle players ...

With the talents of Neymar and Thiago seemingly on offer :eek: and dozens of suitors for both able to offer multiples of what FCP can offer ... SBR changed his focus on the forgotten man that is Matic;).

Negotiations were short and to the point, no checking the deal on the back channels with other managers:cool:, once players involved in the deal were agreed on ,the initial offer was placed and accepted.

so ...

The offer for Nemanja MATIĆof Newcastle United from FC Porto has been accepted. The transfer will be completed within the next 24 hours.

As part of the deal N'koulou and Feghouli will end up at Newcastle with Matic making the move to Porto.

It's like a charity footy match which is held a curtains up event for the season. The winner of the league traditionally plays the winner of the cup, though this may change in the even of a double. Word of warning: the game runs your players fitness down so you may want to keep an eye on your first league fixture.
