Anything possible loan or permanent?

by smartestgooner Thu 08 Sep 2011, 3:46 pm

On either Metersacker or Coates I'm willing to meet the price you paid for them, enabling you to dip into the transfer market again. Metersacker = £16M and I think Coates = £8.5M
Let me know if your interested in either of them.

Benzema = £20M?

by smartestgooner Thu 08 Sep 2011, 3:50 pm

Yes I will offer £16M for Metersacker. Im not holding out high hopes for the signing but he is a gooner now so I will support him whatever the weather lol.

RB Kyle Walker - Available
CB Ryan Shawcross - Seen big offers made to Nick for him, would need something big
CB Rolando - Match the 17m Nick paid for him
CB Per Mertesacker - 16m offer came in from Smarts for him when Nick was in charge, needs to be beaten.
CB Sebastián Coates - Expect him to be a success at Liverpool, don't want to sell
LB Ştefan Radu - Available for the right price.
LB/LM Fábio Coentrão - NFS

RM Pablo Hernandez - NFS
RM Ricardo Quaresma - Available for the 10m Nick paid
DM Esteban Cambiasso - NFS
DM Sandro - May be available, I like Flamini so could do something there.
CM Luka Modric- NFS
CM/AM Javi Martínez - Could leave, needs a decent offer
AM Mario Götze - Seen Nadeem make Nick a 29m offer, he's gonna rip Arsenal apart, wait and see
LM/RM Tranquillo Barnetta - Could leave for a decent price
AM/SS Rafael van der Vaart - NFS unless I get a massive offer
ST Karim Benzema - NFS
ST Alberto Gilardinho - Gignac required in any deal

£16m for Mertesacker is looking well overpriced atm, so I would take Smarts offer.

Shawcross isn't as good as the prices offered and isn't even guaranteed first team football at Stoke anymore, so I'll leave him too.

Gignac + Flamini + £?m

=

Gilardinho + Sandro + Walker

by FIFA Diva Thu 08 Sep 2011, 3:52 pm

Barnetta £5m

by FIFA Diva Thu 08 Sep 2011, 3:55 pm

Kle Walker £5m

Ashley Young is an Arsenal fan and would never join Spurs out of respect for Arsenal, funny how he shows his respect to Arsenal by putting them to the sword with two world class goals. lol

by smartestgooner Thu 08 Sep 2011, 3:59 pm

Sorry mate Mata not for sale IMO he is the best wide player in the league and might possibly be the best player in the league.

I'm willing to pay £16M for Metersacker, he isn't worth it and if I didn't support Arsenal I wouldn't buy him in a million years lol I'm not swapping Sakho for him as I want to make Metersacker a backup and Sakho starts for me.

£16M is my offer, and I wouldn't add to players to the deal to be honest as I think that is over market value already.

by smartestgooner Thu 08 Sep 2011, 4:11 pm

Would be willing to confirm the deal now but let him join up with the Everton squad after this gameweek.

by smartestgooner Thu 08 Sep 2011, 4:15 pm

Im regretting it already lol. You can add the £16M to your budget now.

by Tranquil Chaos Thu 08 Sep 2011, 4:35 pm

corluka + king
for
walker + coates?

by pullthestrings Thu 08 Sep 2011, 5:58 pm

Alright, I've just taken over Spurs, would like to make a few changes.
What do you want for Mexes?

---

Coentrao?

Also,

Gerrard + Torres + Lassana + Gallas
=
Coentrao + VDV + Benzema + Cambiasso

enq.

by nadeem2099 Thu 08 Sep 2011, 6:35 pm

cleverley + capdevilla + srna = modric + coentrao + walker

Gignac + Flamini + £?m

=

Gilardinho + Sandro + Walker

by **Afro** Thu 08 Sep 2011, 8:50 pm

Happy to agree a deal and put it through next week.

Or do you mean you are not going to agree deals?

by **Afro** Thu 08 Sep 2011, 8:56 pm

No worries.

Let's re-negotiate next week

by **Afro** Mon 12 Sep 2011, 10:52 am

Gignac + Flamini + £?m

=

Gilardinho + Sandro + Walker

Can we resurrect this?

onlytreblewinners wrote:I'll wait and see tbh, it is a deal which interests me but I want to spend some cash and offload a couple of players first. Will see what foreign offers brings.

Cool. Let me know.

Who are you looking to offload for cash as I may be interested?

by FIFA Diva Mon 12 Sep 2011, 3:33 pm

Luka Modric and Ryan Shawcross £35m?

by FIFA Diva Mon 12 Sep 2011, 4:03 pm

Thanks for the reply but £12m is too much for Shawcross and as a back up player.

by FIFA Diva Mon 12 Sep 2011, 4:12 pm

£8m Sandro
£10m Cambiasso

by smartestgooner Mon 12 Sep 2011, 4:33 pm

Stekelenburg = £15M?

by FIFA Diva Mon 12 Sep 2011, 4:40 pm

No thanks.

by Tranquil Chaos Mon 12 Sep 2011, 6:55 pm

onlytreblewinners wrote:what for aguero?

hmm, would have to be a very good offer, probably something like benzema + another top player

by **Afro** Mon 12 Sep 2011, 8:01 pm

Not really interested in Naughton, it's Walker I wanted. Also prepared to match Everton's offer for Stekelenburg.
;
So how about:

Gignac + Flamini + £25m (or + Romero + £15m instead of + £25m)

=

Gilardinho + Sandro + Walker+ Stekelenburg

Walker would only be back-up for you behind VDW, and you are not strengthening one of your main rivals in their weakest position (by selling Stek to me)

by **Afro** Mon 12 Sep 2011, 8:06 pm

Similar level I would say for Stek and Adler.

I want to get the deal done otherwise Smarts tends to gazzump me like he did with Hamsik :grr:

How about we do the deal on the condition that if you don't get Adler, I will sell Stek back to you for the £15m (or Romero + £5m depending on what deal you were going for)?

I'll also take Shawcross for £10m

by **Afro** Mon 12 Sep 2011, 8:13 pm

onlytreblewinners wrote:Gignac + Flamini + £35m
=
Gilardinho + Sandro + Walker + Stekelenburg

And I get the option of Stekelenburg for 15m should the Adler bid fail.

Deal mate, probably fair both sides.

Did you mean

Gignac + Flamini + £35m

= Gilardinho + Sandro + Walker + Stekelenburg and Shawcross

If shawcross isn't in the deal, then the cash is £25m

Either is a deal, just let me know which. I need to confirm some of my lawyers first, but will confirm later if that's okay

by Tranquil Chaos Mon 12 Sep 2011, 9:41 pm

Not sure what to offer if I'm honest.

Could do
Benzema + Radu + 15m
=
Aguero + Enrique

ENQ though, not a firm offer
--------
you dont need to worry about thinking about it, theres no way id accept that, enrique has been fantastic for us irl, and i would seriously consider not even playing radu at all, as i have rat, who is ahead of him at lb in the national team

by nadeem2099 Mon 12 Sep 2011, 9:54 pm

onlytreblewinners wrote:Quaresma + 20m
=
Hazard + Cleverley

No thanks otw. I've got an offer of 30mill for hazard and i think cleverley is worth about 20-30mill. Queresma imo cost a maximum of 15mill.
But if you want hazard i'll be willing to sell him for 40mill.

by **ADMIN** Tue 13 Sep 2011, 12:00 am

I can do something with Monreal depending upon whats on the table from yourself.
I'd prefer players rather than cash atm.

by **ADMIN** Tue 13 Sep 2011, 12:12 am

Would you do Rolando & Quaresma for Capel, Monreal & £8m?

by **ADMIN** Tue 13 Sep 2011, 8:55 am

I'd raise it to £12m plus those guys.

by **ADMIN** Tue 13 Sep 2011, 9:10 am

Your pair aren't leaping out at me, Quaresma hardly shined in his time in the Premier League and Radu isn't as good as Monreal. I'd need a cash sweetener to make it worth while Wink

by **ADMIN** Tue 13 Sep 2011, 9:22 am

Deal with the £5m chucked in.

by FIFA Diva Tue 13 Sep 2011, 9:41 am

To be honest, I wouldn't want Quaresma, I feel I already have players around his level so the cash would have to be massive. I paid £30m for him and I don't think I can replace him in foreigns.

by Tranquil Chaos Tue 13 Sep 2011, 10:23 am

onlytreblewinners wrote:Alright, I've got Monreal to barter with who is a better left back than Radu

Benzema + Monreal + ?
=
Aguero + Enrique

sorry dont want to lose enrique at all

by **Afro** Tue 13 Sep 2011, 11:20 am

Marchena is one of my starting CB's so not going to let him go for market value.

by nadeem2099 Tue 13 Sep 2011, 1:27 pm

no deal.
Your not gonna get anybody of Hazards class in foreigns seeing as you didnt finish in the champions league places. I'll do hazard and cleverley for 65mill. You got the money. Spend it.

by **Afro** Tue 13 Sep 2011, 2:45 pm

Handanovic, Frey, Muslera, Carrasso, Malafeev, McGregor, that guy from Fenerbahce (can't remember his name), Helton to complete the Porto connection.

Or I could sell you Romero or Schwarzer?

by FIFA Diva Tue 13 Sep 2011, 2:54 pm

I'm sorry I can't sell Young unless I get a brilliant offer for him. At the moment he is my best player and is rated as the best winger on here. Sorry dude.

by **Afro** Wed 14 Sep 2011, 9:13 am

TPs are back open tomorrow, plus there is no rush as there are no games this week and you have TPs next week too.

Did you see the list I posted, plus also can offer you Romero.

Having said that, can we set a deadline for you exercising as I don't want to get to next Thursday and you exercise it and me being left in the lurch with no TPs available. Say the rebuy option expires by the end of next Tuesday

by **Afro** Wed 14 Sep 2011, 9:19 am

No worries. TBH, I don't rate Adler that highly, so think you are better off with Stek.

I am happy with Romero in fairnes, and I only really wanted Stek to be able to use him in a swap deal with Everton. Will probably use the £15m to strengthen my left hand side.

by **Afro** Wed 14 Sep 2011, 9:27 am

I think the players that I would like, you won't sell, and the players you would want to let go aren't ones I would want.

But you can try me.

My lawyers offer is £8m which I am semi tempted. I think I would sell for cash if you offered £10m

by **Afro** Wed 14 Sep 2011, 9:29 am

BTW, these are the players I am interested in:

Stekelenburg
van der Wiel
Rolando
Coates (U21)
Coentrão
Hernandez
Cambiasso
Modric
Götze (U21)
Zárate
van der Vaart
Benzema

by **Afro** Wed 14 Sep 2011, 9:46 am

OK.
I've got to make my mind on the lawyers by the end of the day, so if you change your mind, that is the deadline really.

by pullthestrings Wed 14 Sep 2011, 9:47 am

N'Zogbia in a deal for Gotze/Pablo?

by smartestgooner Wed 14 Sep 2011, 1:45 pm

Cash price for Gotze?

by smartestgooner Wed 14 Sep 2011, 1:48 pm

Are you interested in Douglas Costa?

by **Afro** Thu 15 Sep 2011, 12:21 pm

Problem is that Monreal doesn't fit in with my planned style of play.

I want to use attacking FBs and Monreal doesn't get forward enough IRL
