Budget - £21million

Torres + Essien + Drogba
for
Hernandez + Rooney + Fletcher/Carrick.
--------------------
Decent offer but looking to get a top DM in return for Essien.
I would be losing out quite a bit mate

Mate,

Vidic, Evra, RvP, Nasri
=
Kompany, Clichy, Rooney, Carrick

enq.

Tempted to hang on to Aguero I think.

Anything along those lines?

£10m + Vidic + Rooney + Phil Jones
for
Torres + Essien + Terry + Ivanovic

The £10m will get you de Rossi
-----------------
If you change Torres to Drogba and I can add Cahill...I would accept

Sorry but Busquets + VDV are NFS

Not very interested in Cahill...

Drogba + Essien + Terry + Ivanovic + Mata
for
£10m + Vidic + Rooney + Jones + Young/Valencia.
Hodgey
-----------------
Leave Mata alone mate...he is all I got left

I do think my deal is pretty fair to be honest
Up to you fella

Not sure to be honest. Ideally would want Rooney in return but can't see anything there...

No thanks. Can't have Carrick in my team.

I am interested in De Rossi perhaps also but wanting to improve on Khedira from my starting XI.

De Rossi & Hernandez
for
Khedira, Lass & Kaka

Fair enough. I'll leave it then. Don't really want to loose Alonso.

De Rossi + Vidic + Evra + Rafael + Young/Valencia
for
Cole + Ivanovic + Essien + Terry + Mata
--------------------------
I would rather leave Mata out of this as I need to at least have one world class winger and losing him would be a massive loss for my side.

No deal.
Im ok in CDM and would lose out at RW

Ferdinand + Cleverley/Carrick
for
Nasri + Albiol

==

No thanks bud.

If you're interested in Tevez I'm sure we could work something out - would take either Vidic/Evra.

Carrick + Rooney + Vidic + Evra + Valencia + Jones
for
Ramires + Drogba + Terry + Cole + Lampard + Sturridge

I'm not overly fusssed about acquiring Rooney sorry.

Too of a loss for me mate. And I think the offer is too big, and I love doing big deals!

Too of a loss for me mate. And I think the offer is too big, and I love doing big deals!

Boateng = Phil Jones?

No chance.

Ha, you're apparently wanting to offload Jones. I've seen your offers and he's not even in your starting XI.

I want Jones for cover in defence, not because I want to replace Boateng with him. Boateng is a good player!

Not selling Ronaldo.

Ronney=21million+matri+krasic

Carrick + Rooney + De Rossi + Evra + Valencia + Jones
for
Ramires + Drogba + Essien + Cole + Lampard + Sturridge
------
I've changed Vidic-Terry for De Rossi-Essien

I'm happy to deal if you are?

I understand where you are coming from but he still scores goals for fun when AVB plays him.
Even in the African nations cup he played awesome.

The guy is still class IMO.

The offer still stands if you change your mind mate

To be honest mate, I'd rather do the whole offer as I think we would both benefit.

The choice is yours though.

Carrick + Rooney + De Rossi + Evra + Valencia + Jones
for
Ramires + Drogba + Essien + Cole + Lampard + Sturridge

Would you consider changing Valencia to Young? Just have a potential deal in place with Milan for Pato involving Valencia..
----------------
Man you are fussy
Go on I can change Young for Valencia

Are we dealing on the folllowing then?

Carrick + Rooney + De Rossi + Evra + A Young + Jones
for
Ramires + Drogba + Essien + Cole + Lampard + Sturridge

Yeah, I suppose. Really, I'm after a AMC, I already have RvP to run the line. See what you can rustle up though.

Carrick + Rooney + De Rossi + Evra + A Young + Jones
for
Ramires + Drogba + Essien + Cole + Lampard + Sturridge
-----------------
I understand mate

Always a pleasure doing business with you pal

Drogba + Sturridge
for
Johnson + Tevez

==

No thanks mate. Keen to get Vidic/Cole involved.

No thanks. I'm losing 2 quality midfield players and only getting 1 reasonable one in return.

I'm just not prepared to lose Modric so sorry, but I can't do any deal involving him.

No thanks, i like the pair of them but the sum of those two doesn't compare to the whole of Ozil.

Drogba is worth jack all nowadays sorry.
I'd trade him for Henry and that's about it.

Essien + Lampard + Valencia
for
Robben + vdV + Busquets

No thanks I prefer my players to the ones on offer

Essien + Ramires + Sturridge
for
Cambiasso + Sneijder + Hazard
------------------------

Even with my blue tinted specs on I don't fancy that deal. Essien and Cambiasso are roughly equal but Sneijder > Ramires and Hazard > Sturridge (on here at least from what I am picking up from the other managers). Sorry mate.

Still no. As impressive as Ramires has been this year for us, Sneijder is likely to be much more highly rated. I was planning to play Chivu at LB anyway so Rio would not suit.

I'd consider it if Sneijder was taken out but suspect he was your main target.

valencia=maxi+cash

Hello mate - I think your 'accidently' got Evra in your side and trying to flog him...even though you have A Cole.

I like your tactics....ruthless but effective

Can't loose Alonso unless Essien comes my way but don't want Drogba.

Cole & Hernandez
for
Marcelo & Kaka

Carvalho, Marcelo, Kaka, Arbeloa, Wilshere

Rio, Cole, Hernandez, Rafael, Ramires?

To be honest, would probably just prefer...

Marcelo, Kaka, Arbeloa
for
Cole, Hernandez & Rafael

Yeah, go on then!

Lampard & Ramires for Yaya?

==

No thanks mate.

Your injuries are as follows:

Marcelo - Round 2
Rio Ferdinand - Round 3
Fabio Da Silva - Round 4
Anders Lindegaard - Round 5

The mentioned round is the round that the player returns and is available for selection. Remember, an injured player is healed upon transfer.

Valencia, Marcelo, Lampard, Kaka, Ferdinand
for
Navas, Clichy, Nasri, Yaya, Kompany?

==

No thanks mate. Not really keen on Lampard and the Navas drop is too big.

Rio, Marcelo, Kaka, Valencia
=
Johnson, Kompany, Clichy, Nasri

enq.

Can't lose Yaya unless Essien was involved.

Yaya + Nasri + Kompany + Clichy
=
Rio + Kaka + Essien + Marcelo

enq.

I'll say again that Ronaldo won't leave unless Messi comes my way. Also, don't think any keeper is rated higher than Casillas on here so would rather stick with them.

*coughNeuercough*

Nah, no deal. Modric is a big bad beast. And he cost me too much to let go.

Deal

Is there anything you'd like for Silva?
