Casemiro + Alonso for Ghoulam + Rabiot?

I think the issue is that Hero has also made us a very good offer.

The way I see your offer is three losses for one gain, and in Draxler it's a player we really like anyway. Aubemayang and Aguero both such a small difference it doesn't really matter. If I had lichtsteiner by doing this deal with you I would immediately look to move him on to bring in another right back to be honest.

Counter offer
Bonucci + Castro + Alves + Draxler/Mertens
=
Alderweireld + Casemiro + Lichtsteiner + de Bruyne

Enquiry
Two gains and two losses each.

If you want Aguero and Aubemayang I'm happy to add that but genuinely not fussed either way.

Thought that may be the case and only really offered it because saw you were struggling to get a deal done for Casemiro.

How's this for a compromise?

Enquiry

Nainggolan + Alves + Draxler/Mertens
=
Casemiro + Lichtsteiner + de Bruyne

Nainggolan + Alves + Draxler
=
Casemiro + Lichtsteiner + de Bruyne

We'll go with this. Please can you confirm.

For now we'll keep Aguero due to chemistry with De Bruyne - but I'm sure at one point we'll be trying to reach a deal with each other involving Aguero/Aubemayang

Alderweireld + Buffon + Bender
for
Sule + Burki + Vidal?

===

No thanks. Alderweireld > Sule but the gap between the midfielders is massive. Buffon for Burki isn't really an improvement I am too bothered about when losing heavily outfield.

Draxler + Hazard for Robben + Vidal?

enq.

Robben is definitely the better player on the wing. Lahm > Alves

posted on 8/3/17

No thanks, got no interest in draxler

posted on 8/3/17

nah, bender would only be a temporary stop-gap

Sorry but not a deal for me.

Not sure how long either of those have left after being stung by Lahms retirement id rather stick with younger players if I can! And happy enough with Lopez so would rather be stronger at rb

posted on 8/3/17

I don't expect either of those two to, there's as good as it gets in their positions but didn't expect Lahm to either!

No thanks. No need for Bender and would rather not trade Vidal for Draxler unless I'm getting an improvement elsewhere.

It's a better offer, but still not sure that it's worth losing Vidal for. I prefer Ghoulam to Alonso too.

Vidal + Robben + Lahm + Sule
for
Koscielny + Sanchez + Alves + Draxler?

posted on 9/3/17

Do you have Casemiro still?

comment by Hodgey (U1271)

Sanchez + Draxler + Koscielny + Bender
for
Robben + Modric + Sule + Vidal?

Pedro --------- Draxler ------- Jesus
----------------- Sanchez-------------

===

Sanchez > Robben
Draxler < Modric
Bender </<< Vidal
Koscielny > Sule

My losses are heavier than my gains and a weakness is created, as well as one of my main weaknesses (Jesus), not being solved at all. He would need to be improved on to lose Modric and Vidal. No thanks.

Feel like my midfield could dominate the majority of games and create chances for my front 3.

Aubameyang + Draxler + Bender
=
Jesus + Vidal + Modric?

===

Better offer. Would you do it if we took out Vidal for Draxler?

No thanks - I'm a fan of Draxler but I feel De Bruyne helps our attack get to the next level, plus I kept Aguero for chemistry reasons.

Do like Alonso but not enough for that.

Counter offer would be De Bruyne and Mertens for Draxler and Sanchez so you can have players more in natural positions (+Aguero/Aubemayang if wanted)

I'll keep that in mind on Alonso. We have a few ideas of full backs to sign, but certainly isn't a bad option

comment by Hodgey (U1271)

Would you be willing to change Sule to Barzagli?

comment by trebs (U1014)

posted on 13/3/17

It's not a bad offer but I like the chemistry of Aguero and De Bruyne in attack - I would want Nainggolan or one of the forwards to sell those two.

Sorry but no deal.
