European summer transfer discussion thread

[BoredSaint]

Oh god I had a transfer saga with this amazing Bosnian 16 year old for 5 years...eventually got him for twice as much as I should have only for him to warm the benches before turning a slight profit to AC Milan. If only he could have gone through my youth system...

And Lucas Moura is a flowering gun! Have him on my current fm, he's bench warming however at the moment behind a few stars like Kagawa, Hazard, Munain and a few cpu generated players.

I won the 2 league cups, 1 FA cup, 1 league and 1 UCL with Everton :P
Was in so much debt at the start but managed to buy Fierro, Errick Torres, Vrsaljko and just kept playing them and playing them. And then rodwell and barkley developed into absolute guns. In my 3rd season I bought Leandro Damiao who started scoring for fun leaving Fierro on my bench :-\

Then i got a transfer offer from Man Utd and won everything there twice :P Ended up with a team like this
                       De Gea
Prat (worldclass regen) Smalling, Jones, Evans
Douglas Costa, Gotze, Pastore, Fellaini, Griezmann
                     Rooney (or Hernandez who scored 49 in one season :P)

and still had players like Nani, Gary Cahill, Muller on the bench :P

that midfield was just epic

I'm into my third season at a small club called Aalen in Germanies third division. I somehow glitched my console and for some reason a club put in a 150mil bid for a 2k rated player :D. Won the third and second division titles and the German Cup in my second year, now am top of the Bundesliga.

ter Stegen
Nagatomo, Can, Hummels, Boateng
Firmino, Gundogan (GUN)
Kagawa, Munain, Hazard
Parker (GUN)
Bench: Fernandes, Orban, da Costa, Moritz, Bertram, Moura, Bovo.

Biggest gun third year side ever :P 10 Germans in those 18 too. Also have a lot of other great youths.

I've heard that last summers signing by Madrid of Altintop is going to turkey after a year of little opportunities.

The exact reason why Hazard decided Chelsea over Madrid and Barca.. They are too rigid with selection to ever change it round and give others a chance. Unless you are a star player of course..

Yeah I've noticed that Both Barça and Madrid will have many young players whom never get any games, and even though Barca use all their youth players they still have a few Brazillian players whom never get a game and are loaned out. Then Barca are confused as to why they want to terminate their contracts early.

Players like Romeu who want out cause they can't get first team football
And also others like Bojan who would have fit in perfectly this season with David Villa going down but didnt get enough first team football to get confidence..

Also with Sahin for Madrid whom seldom gets a game maybe he will want a move.

The name Nuri Sahin has been bandied around a number of Chelsea FC blog to fill a currenty vacant 'link man' role in the centre of midfield...

which will be filled by hazard..
Chelsea wont spend another 20+mil this transfer season.. They've already bought Hazard, Marin and pretty much Hulk..
TALK ABOUT BEING GREEDY ::)

Greedy or wanting to win sh!t... I don't know.

I guess winning one trophy a year is never enough..
IF ONLY EVERTON HAD SUCH MONEY THEN FELLAINI AND BAINES WOULDNT BE LEAVING :(

2 trophies... Making it even more ridiculous  :P

United set to sign Luka Modric and a talented youngster from Chile Angelo Henriquez.

Mate told me that Barca want Thiago Silva.

Who doesn't? :P

[remon tea]

Oh please, 25m for Modric? Levy will get sacked before that deal happens. It'll be close to 30+ for him to even consider a move.

LOL Modric 30mil last season.. yes worth it.

Modric 30mil this season.. Tell him hes dreaming

25mil for modric in my eyes is an absolute rip off for man u.. They got kagawa for less than that and hes going to be much much better than modric..

I would have though max 15mil for modric after his horrendous season

[Jukes]

Form is temporary, class is permanent (unless you're toserr).

25 mil is a good rate for Luka.

[Jukes]

No he's a flowering tosser

De Gea
Jones-Vidic-Smalling-Evra
Nani-Modric-Kagawa-Valencia
Rooney-Hernandez

flowering beast team. And that's without any future signings.

It's good but Chelseas is much better.

[CrowsFan]

I don't like it sorry Jukes. There's no holding midfielder to control the middle whilst the forwards run riot up front

[elephants]

Modric can lay deeper can't he?

[remon tea]

You'd expect us to up his transfer fee because united are a rival.

From what ive been reading, United have a crazy debt right?
