No, no! This wasn't the At. Madrid Adriano, this is is the Barcelona Adriano who plays RB,LB, RW, LW, AML, AMR!

We can take him as Barcelona's Adriano if you want to but once this is confirmed, it cannot be revoked. The player is officially off Pippa's books

Why should other Adriano be off Pippa's hand if Gandalf meant the other Adriano. Both get their bids on their players.

Because we can't prove what Gandalf said is true and it would be unfair to Pippa if he managed to psyche Gandalf into pushing up the bid

Yeah I think this is really unfair on Pippa. Why should he be deprived of his star player?

From what I see :

Pippa had a 10m bid on the Brazilian Adriano.

Gandalf thought it was the Barcelona Adriano and increased the bid.

As we know, no slots are open at the moment so a new player, that is the Barca Adriano cannot be auctioned yet.

i've already made a plan without Adriano now, ffs

I would be willing to accept him at a cut price of 5m for all the hassle this has brought me :wenger:

Pol's point is Gandalf might have just pulled a fast one on us after we all laughed at his bid.

I don't get, Adriano was listed as a striker, how can anyone confuse him with the fullback? :lol:

It's also a bit strange he's never heard of the Inter Adriano before.

If it is simply a matter of one more slot, I open one more to resolve this. Both Adrianos can be bidded for. If any manager thinks they are good value, proceed ahead to bid. The players have not been given or taken away from them. Anyone can still bid for them

He's played in many positions, is genuinely ambidextrous, and there's no specific boundaries in this draft. Cristiano Ronaldo, Luis Figo, Ronaldinho all of them are technically midfielders.

I thought Adriano could be considered as a jack of all trades, too. Pippa was joking too much about this bloke, I thought it was play acting to keep others off him (he has no fullbacks either). I didn't want him to get a full back/winger for so cheap, so I increased it to an enticing 19m. If he bids, he's exposed, if not, I could put Adriano on my left.

And it turns out to be a fiasco.

Yes, and since we can't rule that out, it would be unfair to Pippa who might have successfully psyched Gandalf into making the move (Pippa seems very pleased at getting rid of Adriano, of course he could disprove the pysche hypothesis by putting in the same 10 m bid for the Inter Adriano)

I don't care.. let it be any Adriano Gandalf wants it to be.

But from now on.. people need to be sure about the player they are bidding for.. ask first if u have to
