Willing to swap 90* Iturraspe + Cash.

Willow Murphy earned a draw with Estudiantes against AJ Auxerre.
The match ended 1 - 1 between Estudiantes and AJ Auxerre in their Division 3 fixture.
Zapata was on the scoresheet for his side.

Considering that it was in France, and that before the match both teams were on 35 points, and that, rating-wise, both teams are extraordinarily similar, I think I'll take a point form that. Unfortunately we've drifted four points off the playoffs though in ninth. We're still eleven clear of relegation though!

Our yo yo season summed up in 1 game, a 3 all draw away to Besiktas. Would have taken a point before hand but disappointed seeing as we played all bar first 15 mins with 10 men.
My best defender out for 3 games. Anybody feel like donating an 87 cb on loan?

Randy Lerner is really looking after his investment as he won't allow him to go out on loan but thanks for the offer.

Seeing as many of the transfers on here are part exchange and mirror MLB I'm open to the NFL draft notion mentioned earlier!! Should be extended from 10 teams to the top 2 divisions and bottom 2 divisions so I'm more than happy to welcome a free signing from an upper mid table Division 2 team

Do SMFA games count (As well as cup and shield) towards assuaging the concerns of the over paid brats?

yes, every game counts.....

if you want 100% confirmation get tupac to ask one of the mods over in the soccermanager forum to confirm.

Is it just me or is the transfer window gone very quiet.haven't bought a first teamer in 3 months

Thats because managers don't want cash. I've had quite a few big deals in the past 3 weeks and a few currently in the works.. But they all involve players

You're just looking in the wrong places, I've brought in 2 90s and have a couple of prospects en route in the last couple of days and let a couple of 89s and Eric Dier go in the opposite direction.

Would be more if other managers weren't so intractable

yeah definitely big time. I don't know what it is but I find that people are more happy to splash ridiculous amounts on average external players than buy from a managed club i.e I sold many players at face value to many to externals because I got zero bids for them but once they become available as externals there is a bit queue of clubs making bids on these players.

clubs do want cash, if they didn't they wouldn't be selling to externals. I have many players transfer listed for over a month and have received about one bid on the lot of them and if I do end up selling to externals I can guarantee there will again be big queues outbidding each other on these players.

KERSPLAT!

Although I'm losing a lot I'm happy with my team so no need for transfers, just need to figure out the right formation.

that's exactly how I feel a lot of the top teams are thinking. they have all the money and are happy to sit there with there top class first team and big bank balance rather than invest there money in youth or something and this is why the transfer list is dead

I've already transfer listed a bunch of players this week.

Balotelli
Draxler
Iturraspe
Maggio

But people just put in crappy offers or just offer cash.

Well I do buy youth, I bid on a few new player additions every week and normally add one or two a week. I was talking more about buying from other managed clubs
