    BERNAT brings down BALOTELLI with a tough challenge
    Free kick to FC Porto to the left of the box.
    Óliver TORRES tries to lift it over the wall.
    Goal GOAL!! - COURTOIS gets a hand to it but it's struck too well and sails in.

    Courtois obviously was paid off by his fellow countryman. Must have cost Porto a bit. Definitely on Blatter's payroll :P

    It was surprisingly easy to bribe Courtois ... anything to take his manager down a peg apparently :D

    Can't bid on an external player, any offer I make is either too low for their chairman or too high for mine ffs

    Not sold on any of the bids for Kolarov, will probably hold onto him

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    Estudiantes de LP beat Rangers 2 - 1 in their Division 3 fixture.
    Ntep scored both of the goals for Estudiantes de LP and was later voted Man of the Match for his performance.


    A massive win between the top two of Division 3. It brings the gap down to two points and one goal, although we're still only two points clear of third placed PSV.

    A trip to Celtic is up next, with my newly crowned 89 rated player, Ki, due to make a return from suspension.


    Come on! We can definitely do this!!

    This game has definitely gone up the swanny,

    Lost 4-1 at home to Zenit who had an 84 in defence.

    Beat Liverpool 3-2 away despite them having 4 of the 5 best palyers on the pitch

    And now I've lost 3-1 at home to Sporting despite the teams being relatively even

    This game blows major ass!

    No doubt I'll get raped by Sunderland on Thursday and then I'm gone...

    Same issue this morning :(

    Your Chairman is not willing to meet the valuation of 3,680,000 for ____________ and so you cannot bid for the player.

    :(

    These chairman issues do seem to fix themselves after time - Rodrigo Ely is an example, I first looked at him in Jan/Feb of this year - his chairman wanted approx. 6m which my chairman balked at - a few months later I notice someone was able to bid on him, went for a look and the new max was 5.4m, which I bid and I got him.

    I can only assume that the RL team signed another defender of similar rating which reduced his value slightly - so keep monitoring the situation as they may drop in value soon enough and become approachable

    I'll wait until he moves clubs and try again sure, chairman might feel more charitable

    Looks like my lads were getting a little confident after beating Chelsea in back to back games last week ...



    FC Porto slumped to a 4 - 0 defeat to Chelsea in their SMFA Shield Quarter Final Leg 2 fixture.
    Chelsea went through 4 - 2 on aggregate.

    Leon OSMAN has completed his move to Estudiantes de LP from Everton for 3,680,000


    I'm hopeful he won't drop between now and the start of the new SM season. With Paul George Ntep going back to fight for his place at Roma next season, I'm hoping that the last of the three centre mid spots next season will be fought out between himself and Alain Traore. Either way, having four 88's for three positions should hopefully still be just enough cover.

    Bargain price too considering he's now worth 5.4m so even if he does drop, I should still be able to get my money back, especially considering that he's not 35 until next May.

    Thanks Everton! :):D

    if osman retires you can have Pasalic on loan next season, he'll be unreal at monaco so i expect him to get to 88/89 next year ;)

    nope, i had this issue a few weeks ago.....#3751
    the solution was to sell a few right sided players as i have loads. the block was lifted and i was able to buy Luis Advíncula but i missed his rise and had to pay more. :mad:

    Osman has one year left on his contract anyway so I'll definitely get one season out of him. However, it's whether he'll stay at 88 or not is what I'm *slightly* worried about (if at all :D).

    That said though, I'll gladly take you up on that offer next season regardless. :)

    Everton's win ratio with Osman in the team is staggeringly higher than their win ratio without him - he should easily maintain 88 for another season at least

    Through to the semi final V Hamburg I think. Would rather win the league but a trophy is a trophy at the end of the day, here's hoping!

    How do contact SM? someone needs to have words with them regarding pogba. they're taking the piss leaving him at 92. sami (i get injuried after 4 games and out for the season) khedira is the same standard as pogba and claudio (spend 3 seasons rotting on the bench cause i cant displace pirlo) marchisio is better according to them? Utter BS, paul (barca bound either this window or january) pogba is a 94 rated midfielder at juve end of. they can bump him to 95 when he signs for barca, fnck waiting for him to leave Italy......... rant over.
