Week 12 processing

Welcome to week 12

I'm just resetting everything ready for this week.

okay the first orders out of the bag are for Phil

Paul, don't know if you saw my comment on week 11 processing thread. Forgot to put cheque in envelope. Have sent £20 over via bank transfer just now, please can you credit Leicester with it. Thanks

Phil is chasing a couple of very interesting youngsters this week, Tom Dallison for Arsenal and the highly exciting David Henen for Lille.

But mostly he is concentrating on his wage structure.

Next up is Jamie's Schalke

There is a massive deal going down this week between Schalke and Barcelona that looks like it will involve one of Barca's star players, the stellar Seb Schweinsteiger moving to Schalke in exchange for Dani Alves and David Villa.

Schalke fans were reported to be very exciting about this deal and Jamie said "Im sorry to let Dani and David go but now I have the two best passers in europs. Let's just hope that Piszczek is as good a right back as I think he is".

Barcelona look like they have acquired one of the best and most sort after full backs in the world in Alves and fans were said to be sorry to see Seb leave but excited about the prospect of watching Alves week in week out.

Wow. Deal of the season?

I think the schedule for running the games will normally be on a Tuesday from now on because its sometimes a bit of a rush to do it last thing Monday and if I do it first thing Tuesday I can make a few improvements maybe and give it more time as it deserves.

Gary is next

Think this is great Paul, especially as it prolongs the excitement for a couple of days

Gary is concentrating on improving his wage structure and his revenue flows this week.

Stuart is up next. Thanks for the cheque. Stu seems happy with everything at Roma as he makes no dealings and no team changes.

Jamie at Watford is next.

I'm glad you clipped everything together Jamie as the envelope was split open at both ends and stuff could easily have fallen out, hopefully it hasnt.

Thanks for the cheque.

Main thing this week for Jamie is a review of Alex Song age24 AMBW 9595 Cameroon int with 33 caps.

Already a star player in the game at 9595 should he be elevated to a superstar 9797 I would have said not quite despite having a good season i dont think he is quite there yet. Second on the assists list and doing a playmaker role well so I'll add PM to his PPs but I still see him as being more of a tackler than a playmaker so I'll make him AMBWPM and there are not many of those in the game.

He scores very few goals so I'll sacrifice some of his shooting skills to increase other more pertinent skills so I can keep him at 9595.

Ive also increased his trademarks according to the scout reports.

A review at Ancona for Papiss Cisse age26 9492 CFST Senegal int 17 caps and 11 goals, an impressive goal tally.

Dont know much about this guy so I'll refer to the scout reports mostly.

Doing well at Newcastle 10 goals in just 9 games, again very impressive.

Ive made him 9595 and adjusted his skills and trademarks to reflect his goalscoring prowess. I may review him again after City play Newcastle in the league and Ive seen him first hand for 90 minutes, but he does look good.

Ross is next.

Thanks for the cheque.

Having a clear out as recent signing Grant Holt gets no time at all to prove his qualities and for £3million might be a good buy for somebody. Also leaving is Andy King and Greg Kelly.

Ive reviewed Grant Holt he's now 9292 cos he has a very impressive scoring record at Norwich and i think he's worth it, he'd certainly be playing for Wales or Northern Ireland if he was able and he was very good against City last weekend despite the hammering.

Time for some lunch then it will be on to Rich at Birmingham.

Rich is working on his wage structure at Birmingham and keeps a settled side for the match against Blackburn who arent really in the same class as Birmingham and this game may be a good chance for Sergio Aguero to really hit the headlines, we shall see.

Lets hope so Paul especially after his performance on saturday *wink, wink, nudge, nudge *

Next up is Rich at Leicester.

Rich is undertaking top secret negotiations with a top London club and is looking to improve his revenue flows through his buildings.

Iain's Real Madrid are next.

wage increases are top of the agenda at Real Madrid this week as Iain spends some of his hard earnt cash on his defence.

Yoann Gourcuff makes a rare start in the league side and he only has 29 weeks left on his contract but with an attitude of 1 is unlikely to sign a new contract and rumours suggest he may be available for transfer before very long.

Bruno Alves rejected his new contract this week, he's also attitude 1 and has only started 3 first team games in the last 10 weeks. He has 32 weeks on his contract.

This envelope looks exciting, on the outside is written



Biggest deal of the season inside !! Grab a tea and sit down !

Of course it's Matt's turn.


Thanks for the cheque.


Looks like Seb will be joining Schalke later in the week with Dani Alves and David Villa coming to Barca. Now I understand his comments from last week about making a big deal and hopefully not screwing up his season

Away from the big deal Matt is looking to upgrade a few of his buildings and offer a few players new contracts.

Flamengo look set to sign Alcantara from Schalke later in the week.

Next up is Will and Fulham and there's a lot going on at Fulham this week, alot of it is top secret too.

I have reviewed Nathan Dyer's PPs.

Will ......., Rich ......., too much alone time.
