Depends, do you want the voter to laugh at you, or give you the win? If you want to win, sell Walker for £1.50 and play Vidal.

Good thing I haven't bought Walker yet. It was just on my mind as I got a 10m lawyers for Vidal and couldn't think of anyone to replace him with. Thanks for your wise words azzy Hug

Would you like to be my transfer consultant from now on? The pay is very good.

by **Hero** Wed 09 Mar 2016, 12:00 pm

Bye bye Dybala Sad

Hello Pogba Very Happy

by Fernando Wed 09 Mar 2016, 12:09 pm

ballsy being down to Lukaku up top

How could you not find a RB better then Walker Nadz i mean really Laugh

by **Hero** Wed 09 Mar 2016, 12:12 pm

I'm not playing this week so have a week in which to find a back up to Lukaku. Have to play the game though on the lawyer offers on big players in order to make the way up the ladder money wise. Get an offer now on Pogba and I'm further quids in.

by BamBam Wed 09 Mar 2016, 12:20 pm

I thought players sent to lawyers weren't allowed to be bought by others

by BamBam Wed 09 Mar 2016, 12:21 pm

Or am I just making that up, seem to remember some discussion!

by **Hero** Wed 09 Mar 2016, 12:27 pm

I read it that they could immediately in this league?
Used to be the case that they couldn't until the end of the season.

by BamBam Wed 09 Mar 2016, 12:29 pm

Yeah I thought it was till end of season, but not sure if it was ever clarified

by nadeem2099 Wed 09 Mar 2016, 12:30 pm

There was a discussion about it. Consensus was that your allowed I think.

by Holymiky Wed 09 Mar 2016, 12:38 pm

It's been allowed in this league as far as I know.

by Fernando Wed 09 Mar 2016, 12:39 pm

Marky was alright with it i believe. They have to go through another club though so can't just be lawyered for the money.

by nadeem2099 Wed 09 Mar 2016, 12:43 pm

Are you a bit sore that hero has got his ownback over you bambino seeing as you took Rashford under his nose and now Pogba will be playing for another club in this league? Is this the beginning of an intense rivalry that will last for centuries ala Ferguson vs Wenger. Let the wars begin!!!

by Trebs Wed 09 Mar 2016, 1:24 pm

Afternoon all.

Not sure what to do with Blind and Pepe both out, I guess Thiago Silva is the one centre back who could play on his own, or do I put Tuanzebe or a makeshift CB alongside him?

by Fernando Wed 09 Mar 2016, 1:33 pm

Could just buy a cheap one Trebs.

Can have Schar if match his Lawyer. Either way he's going out found my replacement already.

by Azzy Wed 09 Mar 2016, 1:38 pm

Jonathan Woodsman is a quality centre half Trebs.

by **Hero** Wed 09 Mar 2016, 1:43 pm

--------------Pogba---Neves------------
Sane-----------------------------Coman
--------------Fekir----Lukaku-----------

Pretty happy with that, adds a lot more bite to my midfield.

by Fernando Wed 09 Mar 2016, 1:50 pm

Needs more Eboue. Eboue > Gary Neville,Darmian & Rafael combined. Gary can only dream of having his crossing ability.

Yeah as above, we can buy players other managers have sold to lawyers but we can't buy players we sold to lawyers.

by **Hero** Wed 09 Mar 2016, 2:07 pm

BOOM! Pogba bossing it at the Moss Rose. Signed and sealed.

Pog + Lukaku = Beast Mode.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Why've you cropped out Depay from the pic?

It's good, but it's not quite Vidal + Lewandowski.

by **Hero** Wed 09 Mar 2016, 2:22 pm

Because he doesn't play at Macc Town, and he's s**t.

by BamBam Wed 09 Mar 2016, 2:45 pm

Ha, no bother at all Nads, Hero and I have a great appreciation for each others teams .. or so I hope this week anyway Hug

by Trebs Wed 09 Mar 2016, 3:27 pm

I think Dybala has been more crucial to Juventus this season than Pogba though.

by **Hero** Wed 09 Mar 2016, 3:32 pm

I messaged you that! Laugh

by Fernando Wed 09 Mar 2016, 3:33 pm

Anyone want Schar before he goes. Will take offers on Daniels (been top 3 lb in league this year)

Coman Hero, you have to pity the poor Fekir who plays second fiddle to Lukaku. That's enough to drive a Sane man crazy.

by Fernando Wed 09 Mar 2016, 3:38 pm

Azzy is having a productive day...

by Marky Wed 09 Mar 2016, 4:00 pm

Schmeichel
Grosskreutz - Jagielka - Balanta - Fuchs
Mascherano
Vidal - Cataldi
Cazorla ----------------- Ribery
Totti

or

Schmeichel
Grosskreutz - Mascherano - Balanta - Fuchs
M.Suarez
Vidal - Cataldi

by Marky Wed 09 Mar 2016, 4:01 pm

I don't get Nando's hatred of Mario Suarez either.

by Fernando Wed 09 Mar 2016, 4:03 pm

I don't hate Mario. He's just a bit part player everywhere he's been from Atletico to Fiorentina to Watford and it's hard to rate bit part players.

Id take Capoue over him tbh.

by Trebs Wed 09 Mar 2016, 4:08 pm

Probably the second for me marky but it's difficult.

Suarez & Celina let down Crawley so Marky needs to address them

by Marky Wed 09 Mar 2016, 4:12 pm

I think I prefer the 2nd one, Mascherano and Balanta at the back I like a lot.

by Fernando Wed 09 Mar 2016, 4:14 pm

you do need to address them doesn't mean i hate them Laugh

shouldnt be anything but bench sitters for occasional use not starters though angel

.

by Marky Wed 09 Mar 2016, 4:20 pm

Doesn't mean he'd let me down, otherwise he wouldn't have been playing for the teams you mentioned.

by Fernando Wed 09 Mar 2016, 4:24 pm

Does this mean i can sign Adam Bodgan or Eboue & Denilson and not get voted down because he played for Liverpool & Arsenal respectively. angel

I was on the phone to Ford, I had quite a bit of spare time Sad

Totti up front, seriously? Even I think he's past it.

by Marky Wed 09 Mar 2016, 4:32 pm

I've got no real choice with Lewandowski injured and very little money to spend.

Toni would be probably the better option of the OAPs currently, still starting for Verona most games.

by Fernando Wed 09 Mar 2016, 4:42 pm

The Ultimate OAP at the moment is middlesborough legend....

Only 2 goals behind Dybala & Bacca 1 behind Icardi Laugh

by Holymiky Wed 09 Mar 2016, 4:47 pm

Azzy you didn't answer about Allegri earlier?

by nadeem2099 Wed 09 Mar 2016, 5:11 pm

Azzy hates Allegri with a passion.

by **Hero** Wed 09 Mar 2016, 6:03 pm

Though in fairness Aszy hates most things with a passion, unicorns, rainbows, kittens etc.

by Trebs Wed 09 Mar 2016, 6:13 pm

Just to clarify its only two signings allowed per week right?

by Holymiky Wed 09 Mar 2016, 6:18 pm

by BamBam Wed 09 Mar 2016, 8:13 pm

Thiago Silva won't want to watch that again

by **Afro** Wed 09 Mar 2016, 8:35 pm

That Di Maria looks good.

An English club ought to take a chance on him.

He don't have the heart to play the little fanny.

Motta is the best dm in the world.
