MILAN MANAGER QUITS OVER DODGY DEALS!

Safehands · Cult Status

I havent seen anything massively dodgy?

ive seen average players going for half price - but not young players with a talent of 3 for example

any examples you had in mind?

cheers

Yeah I havent noticed any?

Portillo? £11mil?!

Safehands · Cult Status

Yeah you got me there

Surely Portillo should be closer to £17-£18m, especially due to his age?

And Zapata seemed a bit too cheap aswell the other week (no offence Stu) for a very old player and only £2m

no rules have been broken technically and maybe its just sour grapes on my part - but if i had known that was the sort of offer that would have done it - i would have bid on both!

I think I got Portillo at a far price he is 26 so not exactly young.... and negotiations started at a lower offer and went up... if you dont try you dont make signings!!!

Fairplay Tony- good bit of business mate!

If you want to offer me 17 - 18 million for him feel free to bid :)

Safehands · Cult Status

Lol

if i had that in the bank mate maybe i would!

cheers

Goodbye then Dave, a shame you feel like leaving but I'd have hoped you'd do it with more maturity.

If anyone wants to discuss reasons for any deals with me they can. As always:
- if you enquire about a player, I'll give you a price
- if you meet that price, I'll sell to you and refuse further offers.
Thats not changed since the old game so I don't know why people would have a problem with it?

Portillo is worth £11 million. Considering Dave sold Marco Borriello to Chelsea for only £2.7 million and he's almost as good as Portillo, I think it's odd he finds £11 million bad? As I've replaced Portillo for half what I got for him I think the new Gimnastic manager will be pleased.

Also, remember I have an idea of who will be good as I have some idea of how quickly players will improve yet you're all still waiting for the first set of improvements to understand them better!!

If you have problems with transfers of anyone you can always email me and I'll either explain if I can or look into it if I don't know.

Guess thats the end of my relaxing week then!!

Richard.

PS. There were 2 other people bidding on Portillo who refused to go higher than £8 million and £9 million, and I was told I was being stupid because I couldn't sell him for more than that because "everyone is selling at half price". Clearly some people are working on half prices and some on full values hence their are some good deals out there if you find the right person.
