are you ever going to answer this offer?

Im particularly interested in Cahill, any deal we can come to?

I was interested in Romeu and Piazon if there was any movement on either/both.

Alright mate, now I've taken over West Ham the calibre of players I want has changed slightly, I'm interested in Romeu and Marin if anything's possible.

I can probably include Ben Arfa

Ben Arfa + ? (Douglas?) = Cahill + Ramires

I wouldn't want to lose Coloccini as it's him I'm
Looking to partner Cahill with

Also keen on Coutious, is there anything at Spurs that tempts you?

Probs be looking at Amos + cash.

My Macclad!!! How much would you be wanting? At present I have 1.5m, that do?

How much are you valuing them at individually, I may sign one of them as I can't get both at the moment.

And I will PM you some options for DM and WG.

What's going on with the Courtois deal?

How about I put Schwarzer in the deal so it gives you a back up keeper.

Mark Schwarzer + £5m

For

Courtois

Any response?
Can negotiate.

Luiz & Ramires
For
Kaboul & Tiote?

How much cash do you want for Marin? No longer interested in Romeu.

What would you like Luiz then? Not sure on who you rate Spurs wise.

Alright then,

How about just:

Cahill = Ben Arfa

To go through after this weeks games

^^ enquiry for now

10m is fair enough. Not much I can do in foreigns, just trying to get some cheap players in and have a couple of quality ones going forward.

Well how do you rate Mata v Bale?

Bale & Kaboul
For
Mata & Luiz?

Turn this into a firm offer now. You don't need 3 CB's, Luiz is class as it is and you get a player you want, whilst I get the CB I need. No lose situation

Adam Johnson 10m?

Ill have to withdraw my offer, want to keep Ben Arfa now I've lost Walcott.

18m for Higuain plus Carroll?

£8m + Coates

For

Luiz

ENQ

£17m for Torres
ENQ

Fair enough it was worth a shot, I shouldn't of been lazy and had a look.

18m + Bale + Damiao
For
Luiz, Mata & Higuain.

ENQ

8m for ramires, 18m for Higauin?

25m for Higuain, 10m for Ramires plus Krasic

No thanks

Damiao was top scorer at the Olympics and has both Spurs and City reportedly after him, whilst Guidetti scored 42 goals last season. Happy to leave it cheers.

Being as you'd accept 10m and Krasic for Ramires how about 10m and the much heralded Barkley?

Ramires 10m plus Krasic is fine done deal

Barkley is the reason Everton have allowed Rodwell to join City. He was himself linked with a mind blowing 30m move to Chelsea last summer.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2041470/Chelsea-City-United-30m-battle-Ross-Barkley.html

Adam Johnson plus Ramires all together = 22m

wasn't that bad an offer, johnson 13m + ramires 10m = 23m, i offered 22m haha 1m off, worth a try. Anyway, new offer:

Johnson + Ramires = 30m + Krasic

Krasic is a very talented player but doesn't fit into what I want to do with my side.

Im interested in both Cahill/Luiz mate but Definately can't lose Ben Arfa/Nani without a good replacement, as I gather they are the two you are interested in

The thing is if I had the cash to buy a replacement for Ben Arfa I'd do Ben Arfa = Cahill but otherwise I'll be left short with just Varela/Nani.

Unless you fancy loaning me A Johnson on top until I buy a WN

Wouldnt want to do that, Nani > Johnson easily for me and I'd be left short of a very good RB/LB

To lose Nani I'd need better than Johnson, could probably lose Ben Arfa for Johnson though

I can throw in Carrick

so yes/no on my offer, Johnson + Ramires for 30m + carrick?

7.5m for Marin? That's as high as I can go due to needing to improve elsewhere. Not sure about any p/ex deals. Only top player I have is Sturridge and I have to keep him, if there's anyone else you want I'm happy to include them,

Tiote and Dzagoev
For
Ramires and Marin

ENQ

To, Cole and Marin are injured this week as a heads up

Still interested in Luiz and also might be tempted for Torres, what would you like for either/both?

Oh and Piazon

Bale/Dzagoev/Hazard?

Yeah nice isn't it

Just out of interest how much money would you want for Luiz?

What you want for Ashley Cole
