I personally think it may be an every 1-3 hours type deal. Chances are they are already registered and it'd be a bit rude to take the spotlight from the Romanian leagues biggest transfer ever and also the fact that these guys are all kids and want to experience it themselves and not have to necessarily "share it" for right now.

Bigger than Mutu when he left?

Hilarious reaction to our window from Uncle Arsene:

It is not really hilarious. It is a valid point that integrating so many players is not easy. However, that is what we are paying AVB and his team for.

I'm so 'Vlad' he's signed.....

Welcome to the revolution!

Very true

It's also a disguised excuse as to why they aren't signing anyone of note

Small donation made *awaits lots of nice rep*

And for Vlad

It's hilarious in the sense that he is trying again to explain his reluctance to improve his own team.

any update on lamella?

Yeah I get that he is using the problem of settling lots of players as a veiled excuse, however it doesn't change him having a valid point. It also suggests that he is only looking to add one more player to their squad as he says integrating more than 3 is difficult and they have already signed two players.

i was quite proud of that at the time.

Thanks for ruining my weekend.

i don't get it if that helps

 

[tom4s]

I am not in the least worried by the fact that Roma announced Lamela to us before Steaua announced Chriches to us and that we now have announced only Chiriches so far...

It's a valid point but he must also be the most risk averse manager in the prem right now.

 

[EnfieldYiddo]

To announce Vlad then go completely quiet, I think we are preparing another announcement.

This is a message to all you haters out there. For the past few years, at the beginning of every transfer window, myself as well as other Football Manager fans, would post a list of players we would like Tottenham to sign that transfer window. Such list would usually include young, exciting players, lots of them, and a large spend by Tottenham for that window. We have been mocked and laughed at, "This ain't Football Manager mate, this is real life" or "What planet are you living on, those signings aren't possible". I've dealt with this treatment for years. So as we stand here today, a few days away from the close of the transfer window, and Daniel Levy has already signed or is in the process of signing numerous Wonderkids and FM legends, I say fuck you to all of those doubters out there that said a Football Manager transfer window was not possible in real life. Daniel Levy has proven that Football Manager transfer activity is realistic, as he has made it happen.

Fuck off Daniel!

Can I ask if donations are anonymous in terms of real legal names. Not worried about my username showing up but am a bit precious about my actual name and job stuff being easily found out.

I'm obviously Donna Cullen, obviously.

We know who you are, you are the postman, turn your user name round mail_live!!

Guys, I have some good news.

I've just leaked a confidential Sheffield United memo on to a Sheffield United forum (don't ask) - in return I have asked karma for an announcement on Erik Lamela.

You're welcome!

 

[LedleyNoKneesStillKing]

Long time lurker, second post, 10 Bills dropped in the donation pot (I don't think one of them was Bill Oddie but!)

 

[Snarfalicious]

My guess: Lamela to be announced maybe 30 minutes to an hour after the Europa draw.
