ridley99 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Ok so ive just struck a deal with Inter to sign Ibrahimovic for £28 million (im in the 201/12 season so hes now 30) and then Inter offered me £24 million + 50% for Berbatov (whos also 30 and is now 4th choice striker behind Rooney, Bojan, Keirrison and/or Welbeck, both rotate for the 3rd place spot) and was World player of the year 2 seasons ago and scored 50 in 163 games for me So should i go through with the Ibrahmovic deal or keep Berbatov??? fast replies neede as the deal needs to be completed soon so i can carry on my game Also use this thread for similar posts Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KalEl Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Well that all depends on how you are planning to use Ibramhimovic. But to me it sound like you are getting rid of a part of your team you don't need, so I would do it. But I also come from the school of not getting attached to players and anybody can be had for the right price. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
drobbo12 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I'm not sure it sounds as if youre just spending £4,000,000 extra on a similar player ability wise and age wise, i'd just get a younger striker in tbh. Edit: Or keep Berbatov ofc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridley99 Posted July 23, 2009 Author Share Posted July 23, 2009 just to add that Ibrahimovic has 64 goals in 136 games in the same period of time and that i may be off loading welbeck as well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KalEl Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 But if I know Ridley, he has all kinds of youngsters waiting in the reserves chomping at the bit to see the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
drobbo12 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Maybe not similar ability then /o/ but i still wouldn't bother he's getting on a bit and it's kinda just buying for the sake of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridley99 Posted July 23, 2009 Author Share Posted July 23, 2009 a few got the likes of Cox, Madine, Lazarus, Victor Moses, Saviet Necid, and 3 or 4 regens out on loan, some of which are only 16 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridley99 Posted July 23, 2009 Author Share Posted July 23, 2009 i have looked at Torres as well but he will cost more than 28 million my 40 milllion bid was rejected Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
drobbo12 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Well the easiest and best thing to do is just stick with what you've got. As i've said in other threads Madine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KalEl Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I can see your point but, I would still go for it, they are both quite the same, but Zlatlan may see a uptick in quality just from the surround players or change of scenery. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
crickie Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Id defo get rid of berbatov as in a few season he will be worth hardly anything. Can you get any players aged 22 -26 with a similar ability + goalscoring record as Ibrahimovic??? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KalEl Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I guess it all depends on what Ridley is looking for. I can see the point of going young, but he has younger talent in reserve, maybe he is looking for a backup who he can count on for quality? EDIT: I agree with crickie, get rid of Berbatov, sell him now while he has value. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridley99 Posted July 23, 2009 Author Share Posted July 23, 2009 right ill cancel deal for Ibra, sell Berba and i may put extra cash toward going for Torres value 32 million ( 51 in 73) or Benzema(havent had much success with him) hes got 91 in 134 valued at £19.75 m or Pato wholl well cost a lot valued at 30 million hes got 89 in 133 games. Who should i go for? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ridley99 Posted July 23, 2009 Author Share Posted July 23, 2009 ive had a 30mill bid accepted for Benzema and bids rejected for Torres(44 million) and Pato(40 million) Looking like Benzema could be completed and Ibra on a Bosman in Jan as his contract is up this season. Should i complete Benzema? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
crickie Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Yeah I would as he is alot cheaper than the other two and fairly young. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KalEl Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I would do it, you get younger and get rid of Berbatov and still get Ibra on bosman. Great Job! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridley99 Posted July 23, 2009 Author Share Posted July 23, 2009 Benzema deal done! Fans celebrating the deal and Sergio Ramos Thats 277 million spent and received 211 not a bad bit business! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gorillaradio Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Yeah looks like you made the right decision. Although in my experiences Ibra seems to not do too well after 31 even though his stats (apart from fitness etc) are good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
