Season 23 Week 7 processing :)

Philipp Lahm is now unhappy with his wage after his stint away with the national team.

Feyenoord captured Maxime Gonalons from Marseille in exchange for Andreas Laudrup.

Lyon have signed brazilian defender Dante Bonfim from Boca for £10millions.

Nantes have signed promising youngsters Pierre Aubameyang and Wissam Ben Yedder from the non-league.

This is great stuff Paul, keeping me entertained on what is a normally dreary Wednesday afternoon!

Ancona have swapped in Riccardo Montolivo whilst Ederson has left for Tigres.

The system rates its own bids, for instance

Everton have offered Dusko Tosic in a swap for Phil Jagielka

so that is rated

+0%cash +5%PT +5%CR +9%age so rating = 19%

although this figure is very low compared to your permbids its good for a RM.

So in essence then Paul do the reality managers need the % levels they will offer for a player turning up.

Bit upset it rates that at 19%, about 18% too much lol

love jags mr reliable.

Because the RMs have a limited budget they have to prioritise their bids and they do that using these ratings. Is that what you meant ?

Just saw this - one more move before becoming United's next manager?

Personally I want Moyes, think he's got some very Fergie-esque attributes.

Feyenoord have successfully negotiated a deal with Martin Jol and Alkmaar in which Benteke joined Feyenoord in exchange for £4m plus Jeremain Lens. The overall rating of this deal was 70% but this was adjusted to 81% cos Lens has scored 11 goals already this season.

I thought Jamie trailled Taison to Ancona last week, how have you managed to get him to santos Paul?

Very stable club which doesn't rush things. Good fit for him.

This might sound silly, but is there anyone else who still isn't convinced that Guardiola is that great a manager?

Agree with this - Chelsea and City didn't seem a very good fit - United and Arsenal much better fits but both have managers

I just checked and Ancona released him this week.

There has to be certain reservations, afterall his Barca team was basically Rijkaard's with added Messi but he did galvanise the club, reinvigorated players like Xavi, Puyol, players want to play for him, good man manager, coach and tactician, this will be a good test on if he can do it outside the Barca bubble.

Happy to release him if someone else wants him tbh.

I've finished running everything and will get to the printing tomorrow and send out the email turns in the morning. See you then.
