I'll pass for the moment, but wish you dudes well.

Fucking rollercoaster game. Giggs and Valencia both broken feet. Wazza is banging in the goals but is permanently unhappy.

Gordon to arsenal for £4m, id be sad to see him go but hes on the last year of his deal and has been missing too many games. On his day he is in the top five keepers in the prem, just those niggling injurys means he doesnt play enough.

I remember that day when he single-handily kept City goalless. In the very last minute, Johnson scored an absolute top-corner pearler Gordon had no chance saving, but up until then he was a colossus. He won my respect that day. Such a great keeper on his day.

Hes fantastic mate, he really is. If he can stay fit hes a top four keeper without a doubt.

The source was the News of the World though. Which is renown for its printing of bullshit. I think Gordon will be here until at least January. Nobody is going to want to buy a keeper who has a seemingly dodgy knee, especially one when they don't even have a time frame for being fit again.

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson revealed he pulled out of a £35m move for Udinese striker Alexis Sanchez after he learned the Chilean had agreed a switch to Barcelona. But he says he is still chasing Inter Milan midfielder Wesley Sneijder and Tottenham midfielder Luka Modric.

Football Gossip

Arsenal should take the £13.5m offer for Arshavin from Galatasaray.
Click to expand...

Is the entire football gossip world just trolling Arsenal at this point or am I missing something.


With so many players (supposedly) leaving why would you take £13.5M for Andrei, move him back to the middle I say.

I'll see how many we have interested at the end of the tennis and then start thinking about logistics.

I've partaken in FM networked games before and the only downside is pre-season preparations - generally a lot of people consume excessive amounts of time adjusting there team and back room staff. If we can workout a good framework for time management for this part of the season, it should work out well.

Yeah it does tend to slow down in the transfer windows and in summers when you try to readjust the squad/staff/training. Need to get the right balance between not taking forever...and still having fun!

I would join, but first I should check... everyone has to be online at the same time for the game to progress, right? Because having just finished uni with jobhunting etc, some days I might not be able to dedicate loads of time to the game, but other days would have lots of free time... don't want to say I'll join if that means the game can't be played if I'm not online when others want to get on with the game...

If you're interested at any level put your name down. Like I say, we'll sort out times and that after we have an idea on numbers.

All part of the logistics we'll sort out later on. For now just garnering interest levels/numbers.

The idea is that we build a time frame suitable for everybody in mind, however in most cases we will probably be unable to get EVERYBODY on at that appropriate time in which we would probably proceed if the majority are there. If its a networked game consisting of 3-4 people its not difficult to manage, but by the looks of things we have a lot of us interested in joining here so it will be slightly more challenging working things out. While a lot have stated they're interested I doubt everyone will be committed in which case again we'd probably proceed without them. At the moment I think we'll have to see who's committed and how we can manage out the start date, attached teams, play times etc. So long as your interested, your on the list. Hopefully Wes has something in mind! :p

I know logistics are not sorted yet, so just out of interest really. Can you make you're own 'Euopean League' with all the 'big' teams?

Was just thinking that myself. There's at least a few of us who might want to manage LFC, I know I'd like to manage them... I think we might have to pick a random number or something when we sort out the teams!

This.

Can you guys move over to the other thread? Perhaps even start you're own? It seems you have enough interest to generate a lone thread.

All that's happening at this point is seeing levels of interest. In 90 minutes I'll take the list and move over to the FM thread so we can continue all discussion there.

Sound fair?

Yeah no worries.

Anyone got more info on that handball? I assume it just happened? One of the worst refereeing decisions I've yet seen.

Thats bullshit.

I'm 100% sure that his agent told him to say this bullshit or someones been putting words into Ronaldos mouth.

Ronaldo went to Madrid because it was his boyhood dream not because of Mourinho.

If this is straight from Ronaldo's mouth than hes just trolling City.
Click to expand...
Ronaldo just issued a statement. "The Sunday Mirror publishes an interview with me today. All that content is false. I have never spoke with that newspaper and never made those statements."
