cyborgscouse Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 BuyingPlayers: Antoine Griezmann/Gaston Ramirez Your Team: West Brom Seller: Real Sociedad/Bologna Player's Value: 5.75m/5.5m Offer: 20m/65k - 20m/65k Transfer/Wage Budget: Irrelevant, don't want to pay anything ridiculous. Patch: 12.2 Season: Summer 2013 Need a left-side attacking midfielder for the new season (finished third last year) to join Sigurdsson and Belhanda. Both will cost me the same amount of money although Griezmann's demanding huge appearance fees so I may just bump his wage up to 70k. Thinking Ramirez because he's a better passer and a bit cheaper, but any other thoughts? Griezmann, he can turn world class and has done many times for me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vazza Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Buying Players: Sebastien Corchia Your Team: Nantes Seller: Sochaux Player's Value: £2.6m Offer: £12.5m (over 48 months) Transfer/Wage Budget: Patch: 12.2 Season: Summer 2013 Need a new RB and it's a toss up between this guy and Allan from Vasco, who is more versatile as he also plays in midfield (like Danilo) and would only cost £4m. I know Corchia becomes world class but £12.5m would mean using most of my budget up and I still need a couple of players for the squad after this...the dilemma is I think his sale price is cheap and I can sell him on in a season or 2 for >£24m to one of the European giants Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DandyDon Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Just had this bid: All upfront for this player: He's only been at the club for one season and I paid big money for him after tracking him for about 3 years. We don't really need the cash as I've got a very good young squad who should be capable of challenging for honours for the next few seasons without any massive investment, but it does represent a huge lump of capital for the club.

DandyDon Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I've got this lad as his back up, he's actually been at the club longer.

DBurns Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 DandyDon Personally I wouldn't sell because as you have said, you don't need the money so no point strengthening an a European rival. Need some advice myself: Currently playing a quick game with Chelsea while waiting on the post-transfer window updates and just finished season 1 winning the league and both domestic cups. Two offers of £31m up front (from Real Madrid and Man City) have come in for Essien who even at this stage of his career is improving and performed well last season, especially at RB when Ivanovic was injured. Think I'll reject the offer from City and accpet Madrid's offer as he isn't first choice in any position and could be replaced with a younger player as I'm trying to lower the age of my squad like IRL.

Even though he's improving and had a good season for you, you could get 2 or 3 quality players in for that money. Thinking the same myself, I'm playing an asymmetric 4-2-3-1 meaning Essien can play at RB, DMC, RM or MC. Currently the options are: RB: Ivanovic, Coleman DMC: Mikel, Romeu, Kara RM: Ramires, Meireles, Oscar CM: Lampard, McEachran, Felipe Anderson, Hazard Think that means there are too many talented younger players needing the game time as opposed to Essien so off to Madrid he goes!

DBurns Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 who would be his replacement?

(obviously I have flexibility here with such a high remaining wage budget) Patch: Lastest patch Season: 2012/13 Buying Player Name: Kiko Femenia Seller: Bercelona Player's Value: £2.4m Offer: £7.25m cash Wages Offered: £12.5k/week Whoever I sign would be first team over Victor Moses. I'm looking for someone to provide assists for Seydou Doumbia, and Moses seems happier when he's taking on the entire opposing team and attempting to score. I am a fond admirer of Narsingh and his teamwork, but Femenia seems almost at the same level and much cheaper. My main worry is that I'm paying too much for Narsingh. Femenia was my plan B but he's willing to accept a much lower deal. My head is chewed up over this one, and not for the first time. I've had very similar headaches over Bassong/Shawcross and Doumbia/Hulk so far. This money is almost a bloody curse! Thankyou in advance Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trilo_G Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Anothr little gripe... Kiko Femenia has requested a transfer and has an asking price in place, set at £4.8m, yet they will accept no offer under £7.25m. Whats going on there, then? I've known clubs accept bids below a player's asking price, but never put one in place then accept nothing other than almist twice as much. There's no chance he'll get football at Barca, and no other teams seem to be showing any interest, so should I hold out until January and see if they take the asking price? I'm in October so I'd have to wait until January for his arrival anyway... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trilo_G Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 After I withdrew my offer, Barcelona raised the asking price to the £7.25m they accepted in the first place so I made the same offer, and he arrives in January.

Trilo_G Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Buying Player Name: Luciano Narsingh Your Team: Newcastle United Seller: Heerenveen Player's Value: £4.5m Offer: approx. £10m (according to my scouts) Wages Offered: £40-£50kpw (according to my scouts) Transfer/Wage Budget: Transfer - £10m | Wage - £150k/week rem. Patch: Lastest patch Season: End of 2012/13 OR... Buying Player Name: Antonio Valencia Seller: Bercelona Player's Value: £5.5m Offer: £5.5m Wages Offered: £44kpw Same problem... looking for assists from the right wing. Both players have good teamwork, crossing and physical attributes, Narsigh having the superior accelaration but Valencia bossing him on strength. They look like they will take around the same wage, but it seems I would have to pay double in transfer cash for the younger of the pair. That said, Narsingh is a whole five years younger than Valencia, and already lists myself as one of his favourite personnel. I'm a big fan of both, but there is only room for one of them in my squad. I'm not sure if it matters, but there is one compatriot at the club for each of the options, although I plan to loan the Ecquadorian Joel Valencia out next season. Tim Krul is still first choice. Are either of these wingers much better than the other? If not, the basic argument for signing either player would be youth versus experience, as well as the obvious financial difference. And with Narsigh being so young (22), I'd imagine that good performances would lead to even higher wage demands. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
