so some teams have come in inquiring about my players. Mostly reserve players.
Both Adam Eckersley and David Gray were inquired about. Here are pics of the initial offers and my counter offers. Also included are Carlos Quieroz's assessment of both players.
Both counter offers were declined.
As mentioned, I submitted an offer to clubs about the sale of Saha. Figured 7.5 up front with 2.5 given when Saha scores his 20th goal.
The offer was turned down, due to him being injured. So I'll wait until he is back and training and make the same offer to clubs that are interested in him.
k, so now to the interesting bit. Remeber the loan offer I made to Inter about Adriano? well, they haven't gotten back to me on that, but they were sure to inquire about the following 3 players:
gtfo. Are you crazy? I rejected all three very quickly. Unfortunately one player got upset that I didn't allow them to negotiate with Inter. Can you guess who that player is? Answer at the end of the post along with me adding them to the transfer list for being a twat.
Dimz made mention to me that I should look into improving my physios. I told a look at them and realized that I could axe Garry Armer. I'll look to replace him with a world class physio. The others are either have World Class or National with high physio ratings.
So my first friendly is coming up against Antwerp. To be honest, I normally let the assistant handle the coaching for friendlies while I scout for players. But, for the diary, I'm going to handle coaching friendlies as well.
My first act is to callup players from the reserves and u18's to join the seniors for these frienlies. Here's the list:
Tom Heaton - Reserves - GK
Phil Bardsley - Reserves - D RC
Jonathan Evans - Reserves - DC
Danny Simpson - Reserves - D/WB R
Darren Gibson - Reserves - MC
Chris Eagles - Reserves - AM RC
Magnus Eikrem - U18 - AM RC
Fabian Brandy - Reserves - FC
Dong is currently injured and when he gets healthy, he'll be sold. Which is why he wasn't included.
Back to the striker search. Thanks to Dimz again for a few suggestions. I'm going to look into the following strikers to buy:
Klaas-Jan Huntelaar
Vicenzo Iaquinta
Benni McCarthy
Mika Aaritalo
Have a mix of young and up in age. Can come in and instantly be effective, which is what I'm looking for. I'll let you know how that works out.
As for the player that is now on bad books... drumroll...
RIO FERDINAND
I was looking to offload Vidic, but Rio wants to negotiate. If it works out, I can cut wages and open up a space for Pique and Evans in the lineup. Rio will be sold before the summer transfer ends. Here is my offer to Inter and all clubs for that matter:
Hope Inter is stupid enough to accept this.
