Buyout like that are quite common in Portugal tho. Its just to ensure teams the get decent money for a player...

I normally double the inflated buy out clause when selling!

So.... thinking with the reviews (big leagues usually around Christmas) soon upon us, early predictions......

My main hope at Estudiantes is a Belotti +2 (even though he'll only get a +1, which is fair enough I guess)

Also, I'd like to see N'Zonzi get another +1. He's definitely a 90 rated player now I think.

I'd also love to see Ashley Williams also get a +1 to 90 considering his very decent Euros, and his move to Everton (granted shipping five today wasn't ideal but it was against Chelsea!).

At the other end of the scale, it would also be nice to see little *deserved* bumps for Daniel Bentley, and Chris Forrester although that's going down towards the Championship and League One which they probably reviewed already, unbelievably.

Think Belotti will get his 89. Hes in the Italian squad and I doubt he will be at Torino very long. Nzonzi will rise as well


Now sell me both :D

I echo this sentiment. He's no flakier than he's always been.

Daves position update is as good as a new signing! I think he'll lose LB soon but for now I'll take it

The chairman has decided to invest a further 50,000,000 into Everton.

Ker-fuking-ching!

Division 1 Fat Cats! I got nothing!!

Chairman just told me to obtain a top half finish in my 3rd season in Division 2 and after a long pause where I was expecting the war chest to be revealed he asked me what I was still doing in his presence.

After back to back 6th place finishes a top half finish actually looks tricky enough. With the quality of teams coming down from Division 1 and up from Division 3 this looks to be toughest Division 2 in a long time.

Will attempt to record winning the opening game of the season for the first time at the 7th attempt at home to Aston Villa. Seem to have a certain bit of symmetry with them, First game in Division 2 was against them 2 seasons ago and finished last season with a game against them. Didn't win either so hoping that changes!!
