I will in a p/ex deal, possibly.

Traitor

Never let personal feelings get in the way Viva Wink

Tevez isn't actually for sale, but then neither was Higuain censored

If I have Tevez for more than 2 seasons, people are allowed to bring in his history of not wanting to stick around into his loss of form. But as a new signing, he's gonna be red hot this season!

by Marky Wed 27 Jun 2012, 2:20 pm

What are the general thoughts on Tevez? I think he's a class player with an occasionally rotten attitude. As he dropped down to £20m I thought it was a steal.

by Trebs Wed 27 Jun 2012, 2:20 pm

Viva, I was only going to spend a couple of million on him Whistle

I'd appreciate if you have some guts and make it clear if you feel tat way instead of the miniscule writing though.

Anyone want the last space on my league, feel like ripping all my teeth out with it?

by TwisT Wed 27 Jun 2012, 2:21 pm

Tevez and red hot should not feature in the same sentence really, bearing in mind his facial "injury"

by Marky Wed 27 Jun 2012, 2:23 pm

TwisT wrote:Tevez and red hot should not feature in the same sentence really, bearing in mind his facial "injury"

He's going to be in the back row sat behind Handanovic (who will be standing) in the team photo

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Wed 27 Jun 2012, 2:38 pm

I have managed to grab some time on a laptop and do my tactics. Now gotta go again onto my phone. Good luck Cherries thumbsup

by **Hero** Wed 27 Jun 2012, 2:53 pm

Tevez on the field = quality
Tevez off the field = many words that I've put through the swear filter.

by sodhat Wed 27 Jun 2012, 2:55 pm

Tevez = Legend

I look forward to him coming back to Upton Park this season, even though he probably will score against us as usual. He always gets applause and respect and he gives it back too.

by FIFA Diva Wed 27 Jun 2012, 3:13 pm

Tactics are done just trying to see if I can get a deal or two done.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Wed 27 Jun 2012, 3:14 pm

I hate playing Man City. I saw 180 minutes of live football between Norwich and Man City last season and the total score was 11-2 to Man City!!!! The gulf in class was laughable at some points

by FIFA Diva Wed 27 Jun 2012, 3:18 pm

Looking for a striker for cash.

by sodhat Wed 27 Jun 2012, 3:23 pm

Mario Mandzukic on his way to Bayern apparently.

Certainly won't. You could do with Gomez breaking his legs tomorrow.

Olic is supposed to replace him at Wolfsburg in a brand new partnership with Bas Dost. Little and large!!!

by sodhat Wed 27 Jun 2012, 3:48 pm

Fingers crossed Chiellini is in a bad mood then...

The striking partnership has really fallen away in the modern game hasn't it?

by Bull Wed 27 Jun 2012, 3:50 pm

DOST AND OLIC!

hoping we can now be good enough to get in to at least the europa league.

That's true. One striker seems very much the modern way.

Makes me long for the days of Ferdinand/Shearer, Collymore/Fowler, even more recently with Di Canio/Kanoute.

Guess having an extra midfield player makes everything more flexible

The emphasis seems to be on keeping the ball, so having extra in midfield gives more options to pass to wherever you are on the pitch

Nonsense, they should be lumping it up to the big 'un to knock down for the little 'un!

That was good enough for my dad and grandad, it's good enough for me

by FIFA Diva Wed 27 Jun 2012, 4:00 pm

If you have a good balance in a 4-4-2 you can beat the 4-2-3-, some people look at formations and pick.

by sodhat Wed 27 Jun 2012, 4:02 pm

I think that's true Viva, although if you're trying to play a possession style in a 4-4-2 against a team playing a possession style in a 4-2-3-1 then you're probably going to lose.

I thought for a while England played the 4-4-2 pretty well, against France and Sweden at least. Certainly showed that it can keep teams out.

by FIFA Diva Wed 27 Jun 2012, 4:02 pm

Hero I've sent you a really important PM.

I withdraw all offers I made today to everyone, I was offering far too much so please don't see that as the benchmark but someone who was very impatient and in a rush.

by FIFA Diva Wed 27 Jun 2012, 4:04 pm

4-4-2

Valencia---Scholes---Carrick---Young

The two wide men push on further and the two CM will sit back and start the game from deep, I think you can pass around.

Beckham---Scholes---Keane---Giggs

Scholes will get forward and Keane will play more defensive but both will play as CM going up and down.

Kanchelskis---Ince---Keane---Giggs

The two CM will work as a unit one pushes up other holds and vice versa.

I love good old English football. End to end stuff rather than passing it sideways across tha halfway line for minutes then going forward. Hoof it and get up the goddamn pitch!!!!

by Fernando Wed 27 Jun 2012, 4:18 pm

Tactics up , decided if im going down im doing it with a goalfest 3-4-3 ftw The 606v2 Fantastic Fantasy Football Homepage page XX - Page 2 3559488474

by TwisT Wed 27 Jun 2012, 4:26 pm

PM for Nando

by FIFA Diva Wed 27 Jun 2012, 4:27 pm

An then you complain and cry why England lost, that Football is outdated, we need to move on from that era and start to move with the times. We can't play that passing game yet but we should find a way to play Football instead of hitting it long and long.

Our fans were crying that we don't have our own Andrea Pirlo erm Paul Scholes?

by Fernando Wed 27 Jun 2012, 4:28 pm

ive replied twist twice actually stupid pm system Laugh

by TwisT Wed 27 Jun 2012, 4:30 pm

Cheers for that Nando......keep the faith thumbsup

by Fernando Wed 27 Jun 2012, 4:31 pm

no ive gone down the sod it im going to attack like buggery route see if can force a 5-9 game thumbsup

by TwisT Wed 27 Jun 2012, 4:39 pm

The "Somme" tactics.......1 million over the top.....5 guys actually reach the machine gun in the trench on the other side.

by Fernando Wed 27 Jun 2012, 4:40 pm

Pretty much got Cavani/Benzema/Di Natale/Remy/Callejon all playing Laugh

by TwisT Wed 27 Jun 2012, 4:53 pm

I am worried now.........

by FIFA Diva Wed 27 Jun 2012, 5:29 pm

Hero can we have the purple font I use on chat box on the forums, Purple is officially my Pimptastic colour of choice and want to use it for when I do tactics.

by FIFA Diva Wed 27 Jun 2012, 5:31 pm

Also I think Mighty deserves £10m for the great idea of spoilers for tactics, it makes the page look more pretty with your team name in big fat writing and spoiler underneath also easier access to people's tactics.

by Marky Wed 27 Jun 2012, 5:42 pm

AC ALSOAM enjoying a winter break (so to speak) as after this week's game, a week off before our next league game. Depending on the result this week, we're going to Malia/Siberia.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Wed 27 Jun 2012, 5:47 pm

If Cunning Canaries lose this week my players aren't getting paid for the rest of the season. And will be made to watch all of The pointless cup games as torture.

by Marky Wed 27 Jun 2012, 5:53 pm

As punishment, send them on loan to sides still in the Cherry Cup so they have to play in it Laugh

by **Hero** Wed 27 Jun 2012, 7:36 pm

Guys just to give a heads up, I will try later on to post my tactics but my wife has just found out she's got her first teacher job so we are celebrating tonight.

by Trebs Wed 27 Jun 2012, 7:37 pm
