Also it's Gleeson, not Gleason!

Jake Gleeson the goalie from New Zealand, Jake Gleeson the free agent striker, or Stephen Gleeson the $874k 84 rated Irish CM (with $5k wages)?

EDIT: Never mind.

We're making a $700k bid for Will Grigg (He's worth $984k but he's transfer-listed). If it gets accepted I'll tell you his wage requests and you guys can decide whether or not to sign him.

EDIT: Wigan says they want a bid around $880k, so we're offering $850k.

 

[epic73]

$850k accepted, he wants $6k wages. Should we do it?
EDIT: Signed.

Preseason Friendly 1: York City 3-0 Shrewsbury Town
Goals: Oliver (53, 65, pen), Grigg (78)
Assists: Poyet
MOTM: Oliver
WILL GRIGG'S ON FIRE, YOUR DEFENCE IS TERRIFIED!

 

[epic73]

I'm bored, so I'll make a loan bid for Joao Teixeira and Osman Hadzikic. And a transfer bid for Potts.

 

[epic73]

Teixeira was successful.

Preseason Friendly 2: York City 1-3 Rotherham United
Goals: Oliver (18)
Assists: Teixeira
MOTM: Mancienne (GK)

 

[epic73]

Danny Potts has signed for us with $1k wages per week. Osman Hadzikic has rejected our loan bid, so we need a goalkeeper.

And the big question, MJA , Aaron-Bcfc , BetterCallSaul : Should we sell/loan out Diego Poyet? He's on $15k a week wages, predicted to stay at his current rating of 89, 23 years old, and worth $7.78m. First answerer gets to decide. I'm personally in favor of selling him within the next season, but you guys can decide.

 

[MJA]

Is 7.78 million decent for someone of that rating?

Breaking news: Norwich have offered $7.12m for hum. We can reject, accept or ask for more. You decide.

Of that rating, yes. It would also probably make us richer than any English team outside the Premier League.

 

[MJA]

I would say get him gone then and bank the cash. Don't go spending all the money on a replacement though

Asking for $8m.

 

[MJA]

That's bit mate, got to be ruthless with negotiations

Preseason Friendly 3: York City 6-3 Crawley Town
Goals: Poyet (2), Teixeira (16, 36), Grigg (18), Oliver (64, 66)
Assists: Grigg, Oliver, Swan
Red Cards: Swan
MOTM: Teixeira
Well, if that's Poyet's last match, it was a good one.

 

[epic73]

Norwich have offered $8m for Poyet. We've accepted and he's signed. Bye. Now who should we get for a replacement? Someone under $1m or over?

 

[BetterCallSaul]

Stephen Gleeson the $874k 84 rated Irish CM (with $5k wages)?

EDIT: Never mind.

You have found your replacement

 

[epic73]

You have found your replacement

I was looking at a MLS guy called Afful, but he would have been awful, thanks for the suggestion.

 

[epic73]

You have found your replacement

He's $1.64m, so we're bidding $1.3m.

EDIT: "Birmingham City have rejected your bid of $1.30m for Stephen GLEESON

Birmingham City responded that Stephen GLEESON is an important first team player and is not for sale at any price"

So we need someone else.

 

[BetterCallSaul]

Damn it, he's a good one. How about Shaun Williams?

 

[MJA]

Paolo Tavares

 

[epic73]

How about Shaun Williams?

He's very good. 600k asking price, 31 years old, 86 rated, $10k wages (not the best), can play CM, CB, or LB.

Paolo Tavares

Apparently not on the game/retired.

We'll make a $400k bid for Williams and see what happens.

Oh yeah I forgot you were a few seasons into this now, he may have retired

 

[epic73]

"Millwall have rejected your bid of $400k for Shaun WILLIAMS

Millwall responded that Shaun WILLIAMS is an important first team player and is not for sale at any price"

Anyone else?

 

[MJA]

Fernando Forestieri

 

[epic73]

Fernando Forestieri

He's 87 rated, $4m asking price. Too much?

 

[MJA]

Yeah probably, plus probably difficult to get away from his current club

I'd recommend suggesting someone who's maybe a sub or average player for a PL/foreign club, as they'll be able to lose him.

 

[epic73]

We've made a $400k bid for Conor McLaughlin, an 80 rated RM/RB for Fleetwood who's worth $526k.

 

[epic73]

They wanted $500k, so we offered that and got him. However, we didn't sign him because his wage demands were too much.
