Auction Draft Chaos - Complete

Nobody tempted to outbid me on Maldini? Only half hour to go before the minimum bid raise increases :nervous:
 
Robben still up for grabs too.

Can you tell I’m new and winged this!?
 
@Zlatan 7 interested in trading Maldini for Kohler?

Make that Kohler + 10m
I haven’t got him yet, no chance on this earth I’d swap him just for me to have plus ten mill to spend elsewhere though sorry.
Not sure if you’re trying a fast one on me because it’s my first auction draft :lol:

Someone is getting Maldini for 90m aren’t they
100m but looks like a chance yes.

Edit: I see what you mean now, if I sell him back to bank?

Interested in a trade or just funds?
I need a defence or funds
 
Kaltz shall be available for cash and exchange deals after an hour if interested.

Btw, can we have an available for transfer list along with the bids list?

I'd be tempted to take a 90 mn deal for Maldini.
Kaltz plus 50 mn sounds too good to say no.

Loss for you I guess, but a decent amount of cash and the RB spot filled. Lemme know if interested at any point.
 
OK, can I buy you off him for Kohler + 20m which comes to $100m? No profit or loss for both of us.

I’m not all that keen on Kohler but I may get desperate later. I’ll have to see how my other bids end before agreeing that offer.
I was more pushing for someone to outbid me

No one will outbid you now. You can sell back to the bank for 80 or someone will offer you 90.
 
@Zlatan 7 would you be interested in Krol/Nordahl for Maldini/Robben.

Should both our bids finalize of course. Let’s you keep a flexible defender, and a top striker, and gets the Robben problem for you solved.

Thank you for the offer, I know nothing about Nordahl but I’ll have a look now.

I’ve got a free hour now to have a play around with my team and possible options and see what’s best. I’ll get back to you
 
And what’s the price someone can buy him for if I sell back to the bank?

It’s a bank, so I imagine they buy back off a sorry soul like yourself for 80m, then put him back on sale for 100m

If you sell to the bank the player is available at the price you sold back to the bank

IF Maldini is sold back for 80m he is then available for 80m from the bank
 
Don't sell Maldini until I am online if possible. I might give you 90 mn all cash if my math works.
Yes, ok

Makes sense

If you sell to the bank the player is available at the price you sold back to the bank

Well that leaves me no barter room at all. Now GSTQ or anyone else may as well wait untill I sell to the bank and then save themselves a further ten mill.

Edit: trading for players would make sense I guess.
Major re jigging of the team needed here.

Sure.

But then someone else could swoop in and snipe him up. Trading with you is the only way to guarantee the player. No one knows when you might sell back and whoever is online at that moment might benefit more than someone planning on it

As I said from a pure strategy point of view GSTQ was very smart to wait and now he is in good position to get better bargains than the people who bid up a GOAT in the first day. Consider it an advantage for being patient

The worst strategy is Andevatic: selling a player to the bank instead of trading because they never took the time to read the rules and because they didn't have a real strategy or a target starting 11!

Will @Andeva be making an appearance? Does he exist?
 
Sure.

But then someone else could swoop in and snipe him up. Trading with you is the only way to guarantee the player.

Yes, that’s a good point about it makes it garunteed for buyer.

I checked GSTQ team after you mentioned his strategy and seen he had two players, Kante and someone else, I couldn’t see any benefit to that strategy.
 
@Zlatan 7

Why don’t we team up? Once you get Maldini, I will trade you Michael Carrick for Ronaldinho, Rijkaard and Maldini. Then you can resign from your post and come and be my AM.:devil:

Not getting into bidding wars or paying a lot for favorite players. It allows him to save the bulk of his money to spend unimpeded later when most people are well under 100m.
