Micah Richards.
Who would you want for him?

Silva, who would you like for him?

I have rugby training now. Please leave enquiries/offers and I'll reply later.

no deal

I'd be willing to do a couple of players for him if you'd be interested but not RVP.

milner, barry

what for em?

Not wanting Tevez to be honest.

Lass Diarra, Di Maria, Benzema & Albiol
for
De Jong, Silva, Aguero & £12 mill

Tevez + Nasri
=
Mata + Torres
------------------------
Dont want to get rid of Mata unless Silva is offered.
Prefer Torres to that Tevez at the moment too

Sorry mate

I wouldnt mind Nasri but he hasn't been anywhere near his best form for City.
Still a top player but prefer Mata over him at the minute

I have no interest in Tevez so unsure there.

I don't know where to start as I don't want Tevez and you don't want to let Aguero go.

I'm interested in neither of those sorry, one guy won't play in RL, the other is a shadow of his former self.

Barry, Milner
=
Gerrard + £10 mil?

Alternatively I'd look to sell Barry for cash.

Liverpool FC refuse this offer. We suggest you sell Barry for cash. Good day

I thought I told Nick_Fury to do one.. Has he been posting?

Pull, I am assistant manager of Liverpool FC. YI will confirm this. I have not abused anyone, ive just responded to deal and made enquiries about player.

What?

nick fury is my assistant manager pull

Would obviously be interested in Yaya Toure but I'm not convinced losing Vidic + Evra for Kompany + Clichy would be as big as the gain.

I see you have been offering Tevez about for deals.
Who would you realistically want from Spurs for him, or how much cash?

Then Vidic is definitely not moving!

And I do like Young but all three United wingers are similar quality so it's hard.

Good offer but I don't particularly like Nasri.

Could possibly do VDV for Tevez, let me have a little think

Have thought about it.
VDV for Tevez
Enq

Cant do that, sorry.

Yaya Toure + Aguero + Ivanovic for
Essien + Drogba + A Johnson

Khedira & Albiol
for
Yaya & £5 mill

Probably not mate, all 3 are NFS just now.

Yaya + Tevez + Silva + Clichy + Johnson
for
2 of Valencia/Young/Nani + Rooney + Evra + Carrick + £5m

Parker for Yaya
Enq

Something funny?

Fabregas
=
Yaya

?

De Jong + Tevez + Silva + Clichy
=
Carrick + Rooney + Nani + Evra

===

Slight alteration but not as appealing really. There is relatively little difference between de Jong and Carrick as far as I'm concerned. Has to be Yaya really. Can add Ferdinand for Kompany?

Don't really want to lose Villa or Mascherano mate

Yaya + Tevez Clichy
=
Carrick + Rooney + Evra

===

Interesting offer but ideally want another gain in there given I'm losing two of my best players. You may cite Yaya - Carrick as a big drop for you but I still feel I may look slightly weaker overall. Hart for de Gea?

no deal kolo is not as good a chielini and dzeko is terrible

I do really like Johnson but ive just got Ozil and have Ox as back up in that position sorry.
Am willi to do a deal on Arshavin though, how about Arshavin, Arteta, Song & Huddlestone
For Yaya and Silva?

No thanks. Verm cost me much more than I wanted so I can't be losing him.

Well Young to Johnson is also a step-down...

Im not looking to sell or swap Busquets im afraid.

I kinda want to keep Van Persie to be honest and not keen on Nasri although any way Silva could be involved?

Aguero, Silva & Kolo
for
RVP, Di Maria & Albiol

RVP & Aguero fairly similar, Silva slightly downgraded but Albiol > Kolo.

Yeah, go on, deal.

Nah, not interested in selling Kaka for cash.

Not looking to lose Essien for De Jong mate

Tevez + Yaya + Di Maria
for
Drogba + Essien + Lampard + Cahill

I understand mate.

I think for £20m I could get a decent player.

Decent offer but 2, maybe 3 losses (RvP - Rooney is close) to get Nasri is not what I had in mind for CM.

no edal chielini is worth more than that to me

Not for me. I think people see Yaya as a more attack minded player. Wanting more of a defensive mid. Mascherano-esque

Who would you like for De Jong?

Ferdinand + Cleverley/Carrick
for
Nasri + Albiol

---------------------------- Hart
--- Richards ------ Kompany ----- Rio --------- Clichy
------------------- Yaya ------- de Jong
-- Navas ---------------- Tevez --------------- di Maria
------------------------ van Persie

No thanks mate, im pretty happy with my starting 11, so would only look improve players in a like for like position.

Dont worry, I have a plan in mind to sort that.

Not looking to lose Villa I'm afraid mate.
