Transfer Muppet Fantasy

Oh oh.... @Aldo

Just did the math, with Hazard & Rio you got 242M left, add that to Makalele Viera Henry and Rui, that leaves you with 35M for 5 players :confused:
Not to mention there are still bids there for Puyol(24M), Courtois(10M), and Muller(12M), which will leave you with -11M with 2 players left if I'm not miscalculating...

Aldo - Rio Ferdinand 48m, Hazard 10m Henry - 55 m Makelele-32m Rui Costa - 34M Kaka 33m P.Vieira - 53m Puyol - 24m Thibaut Courtois - 10m

i calculate 299m from 9 players. he is 19 m over budget.

Not bad but bit unfortunate to have both Robben and Ljungberg. Both were most effective on the right

You won't get Schweini, you can trust me on that :lol:
 
Can we add players? Or is there still a rule for it? I don't think we see massive bidding wars from now on, most teams need only a few players in specific positions?

Can add directly to the list now, just keep the list max at 70

Good call, makes a lot of sense now. We won't see too many bidding wars from now on, most managers will just look to finish their teams anyway.

What do people make of Hyppia? Haven't really seen him in the drafts before but seems solid enough for me especially at 14m and next to JT.
He's well under-priced at £14m, but I agree with Cutch that it's not a defence to play a high line with.

Could you edit Cocu in? He's missing, because my edit above was a bit late. I would have taken de Boer for 10m :lol:.
 
I was hoping everyone would just forget about Cocu. Do people think he would work at the base of a diamond? Or is he only best in the left midfield spot?

I remember @antohan having him in a draft. Can't remember how you played him though.

I think Anto played him next to Schweinsteiger in CM with Bergkamp as AM in the sheep draft. I'd say there are a better fits for the holding midfielder role in a diamond still not picked yet.
 
Yeah he played like Balu described it. I'm still thinking myself to take Cocu to play next to Seedorf in CM, I don't see any problems with that

I remember @antohan having him in a draft. Can't remember how you played him though.
The beauty of Cocu is that he can play well pretty much anywhere between left back across and up to central midfield.
 
Oh oh.... @Aldo

Just did the math, with Hazard & Rio you got 242M left, add that to Makalele Viera Henry and Rui, that leaves you with 35M for 5 players :confused:
Not to mention there are still bids there for Puyol(24M), Courtois(10M), and Muller(12M), which will leave you with -11M with 2 players left if I'm not miscalculating...
I calculated at least 10 times to make sure I wasn't going over budget, something seems to have gone wrong
 
Sorry guys, it was really a genuine mistake, I counted a lot of times and thought I'd have 30 odd left after I bid for Muller. I think I forgot a player, but I would never intentionally go over budget. :(

Yeah, I believe you. I honestly have no clue how that 30m fine would work? If you can't afford Costa, you loose the player, your overall budget is reduced to 270 and you're again in the same situation as before, right? Then you loose Kaka, your budget goes down to 240, well fecked again? Or am I missing something? I've no idea how that will work, but I don't have a solution either, in case no one outbids you on one of your expensive players.
