Ive decided to entertain offers for Gilberto Silva. Thanks to everyone that applied over the last 16 games, and although i always said no - i need some cash to strengthen other areas - so relunctantly im willing to part with him
The guy is pure class even if he isnt as young as he once was at 30. Stats are
9 Defence, 4 Attack, 9 Skill and Talent 4 - rare to get that good stats in midfield (and defensive midfielders with those good stats are even rarer!)
Value is £14.8m - but ill also look at decent swap deals as well
Please submit offers by PM, post here, or email me at simonnewcombe@googlemail.com

Mr Goble Sir - congrats on the Roma job - ill reply in a min

think you got the better end of the favour there my man!! I would certainly consider it - but would prefer to do it on the basis of a permanent transfer to follow as his value might dip by then due to his age?
let me know your thoughts, and maybe we can sort something out if he doesnt get sold
To be honest - i dont want to sell him - so it will take a decent offer to make him go so it might be irrelevant anyway
cheers
ps Jamie - no casualties of war this time im afraid! merely the only tangible asset i can bring myself to let go of to raise cash for other areas my man
I dont think I did get a better deal - I helped you in your hour of need and you are just doing me a favour!
I'm not sure I would want to buy him, he is quite old, and I am trying to make my squad younger, as for swap deals - I'm not sue that I have anyone that you want - I have Gera, but I would want to trade him for someone younger and the other players available aren't really good enough for a Premiership team (but by all means don't let me put you off)!
Lets wait untill the end of the season anyway - I dont want him untill then, and you might sell him before then.
was only joking - you did me a favour - ill try and return it.
And no worries - we can talk more if he doesnt sell. As above - its with a heavy heart that im selling him anyway and be more than happy to keep hold of him - so might be better to see what happens
cheers!
ps good point on the predictions league mate thread - replied asking for peoples views on it
Having had a lot of offers for Gilberto - none really come close to a decent offer
I will keep him on the market this week and then next and then close the books - so anyone wanting to make an offer either cash of player swaps (have to be of a decent quality) please get in touch with me on simonnewcombe@googlemail.com
