oranjeman Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 lol the title is lame i know ! but anyway im ac milan heading into my 2nd season... i got a whoppin 108 million in transfer money to spend anyway ive just paid out lionel messi's release clause of 46.5 million (will be the most ive spent on a player if it goes through) anyway i offered him a hefty contract which was: Status: Key Player Wage: 110k per week Length: June 2014 (im in july 2009) Signing on fee: 5 million Appearence fee: 15.5k goal bonus 7.75k NOW i wasnt expecting messi to sign because it said he had no intentions he rejected the contract but he's client wanted to continue negotiations! thats a big step forward it now says he might "tempted" if the contract offer is to good to refuse. my question is in 2 parts 1 is 46.25 million dollars to much? 2 how much should i offer to tempt him?! edit: im 412k under my overall wage budget and in desperate need of a MR and ML so he fits the bill pefectly Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

glamdring Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 If you really want him offer whatever it takes. If not, find someone else. Personally I wouldn't sign Messi if he was available on a free transfer, but that's just me. I'm an oddball Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
glamdring Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Btw, there's no such thing as too large a transfer fee either if you have the money - everything is relative. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayahr Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 The transfer fee is actually cheap. And 110k$ per week should be way less than he makes irl. I would be happy about that bargain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A.D Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 If you get Messi, just offer him maximum wage and bonus addons. Maximum for both. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
damienroden Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 I hope you gave me a decent wage, i'm on naff all at blackburn. and you sign him if you like, well you have. I'm sure its good having a superstar, I just prefer finding my own starlets. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukekarts Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Now just buy Eto'o and play the CL winning 3 Barca had. With Pirlo, Flamini and Gattuso bossing the midfield, and Pato to deputise for Eto'o, you'll be laughing all the way to the CL Final. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
boywonder9 Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 you reckon?but messi is just this untouchable player and ive always wanted him in every fm and never been able to get him I really want messi !! Then get him. Offer whatever it takes for salary if he's a player you absolutely want. Sure, you could probably do better buying 3-4 players for the same amount and half the salary, but if you want Messi then go for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrighty07 Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 i would have signed him for that lol.i got vela from arsenal on fm08 for £65 milllion. Kaka, £67m in first season on FM08 (i was bored, okay?). He scored 35 goals that season, with 10 assists from AMC. Money well spent? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
