Merry Christmas all. Marky stop being such a filthy animal.

Morning. Anyone back at work today?

Nope not til Friday but in other news TM have gone mental with their La Liga updates

Explain?

Ousmane is now 72m
Asensio 45m
Oyarzabal 27m
Paulinho 36m (doubled in price)
Guedes 36m
Rodrigo 22.5m (bought for 6m)
Lucas 18m
Even Deulofeu has gone up to 12.6m

Just had a look at my La Liga players. Mascherano and Juanfran have dropped a bit (due to TM's ongoing discrimination against players over 30 )

Pione Sisto has trebled in value which is decent

Well atleast we don't need a season 2 of this now Hero's got it wrapped up with his TM raises

Ousmane yes. I don't think there's a lot of value selling Asensio at £45m + 10%.

if sold ousmane & one of werner/asensio he could buy Griezmann or Ronaldo with 20m spare change

Ousmane and Werner at lawyers values = £79.2m + £48.4m = £127.6m

I don't even mind. Just means the pressure is on him to deliver and the challenge is tougher for the rest of us.

Also it's unlikely he'll be able to buy anyone above £55m until Season 3

Forgot about that limit That's just as well then otherwise we all doomed.

There will be a cap anyway so it wont be completely dominated.

I'm not back at work til the 8th btw 

Last few updates feel like TM is bringing itself in line with the current market, and the RL prices last summer. I suspect we might see the same when the other leagues update too.

Will be worth holding off on setting a season 2 limit until nearer the end of the season as the number of players in each bracket could change markedly.

I had a quick look. Only one of mine I saw gone up hugely is Arnaiz. He has gone from 900k to 9m

I've made just under £8m on Jordi Alba

Same. Unai Nunez who I bought for £275k I think, had gone up to £9m.

Ive made about £40m on Paulinho,Rodrigo, Lucas & Deulofeu

Lenglet +6.75m
Asensio +18m
Dembele +42.5m
Gomez +7.2m
Ruiz +2.5m
Hakimi +4.5m
Alena +4.5m

Nice 85m+ profit today

There’s been a Bundesliga increase today so I would expect another healthy profit today.

Although all relative as we can’t sell at new value for a while and as the increases seem to be across the board, replacements now cost more

I've had the following

Roman Burki - £8.1m > £7.2m
Sime Vrsjalko - £14.4m > £18m
Giannelli Imbula - £10.8m > £9m
Gervinho - £9m > £7.75m
Tammy Abraham - £7.2m > £9m

Mixed

Yeah Brandt and Goretzka have gone up for me.

In regards to this, I'm in two minds if these increases are good or not. On one hand, well done to us for spotting the talent. On the other, the league will have a lot of money in it now.

Does give a lot more opportunity for mess ups in the transfer market though. You could splash out on an expensive player TM wise but end up having someone that no one rates.

It's fine because of the TM cap.

Main winner for me was Thorgan Hazard going from £10.8m to £18m.

Glad I didn't sell Jean-Kevin Augustin for £3m as Afro tried persuading me to do, he's just gone from £10.8m to £16.2m, was at £2.7m when he entered the league!

Noticed some of the players preferred position has changed too, especially the younger ones.

Had to do a double take on some of my targets.

lads

Are we having lawyers offers this week then?

Someone else will have to do them if so as just on mobile

Morning. Those increases have caused some negotiations I see

Douglas Costa and Valverde

Okay, thanks

Just to be clear, you can accept both sets up until the new game weeks start.

Thanks for doing them also Marky.

If it doesn't work out, his real life £25m fee will increase his TM Value!

Signed Romagnoli from foreigns, unless he's already taken in which case I'll just go and buy Van Dijk and wait for the price rise

Just made a totally impulse buy don't @ me

Unfortunately an impulse buy that I made a few weeks back

If you had done it a bit before then he was only worth 5.4m. In the end I had to fork out the 12.6m
