You all wanted the drama, you got it :
PSG/Palmeiras (29/2) bids 10M on Warren Zaire-Emery of PSG
Also, can Zizou confirm that BLAUGRANA’s second bid is invalid since he didn’t mention Barcelona in it? If so, my bid would be 6.5M.
Wow.
Yes I thought it was a sign of respect to tell.
I think I’ve done so with multiple GMs and only you and Chris have thought it would be cool to do that.
If Z is fine with it, then so be it.Fine with it would not accurately describe my feelings about this. However, in these kind of scenarios I prefer to let the shareholders (you all) decide. If you want to ban self-countering, let the crowd decide and ban it. I’d be in favor of banning it. But there’s only a few things I’ll swing the hammer for. I prefer not having to wield it.
Like I said, it’s up to you, but I think a decision needs to be made here. Also, since my bid here and other bids didn’t include FC Barcelona for any of the SC Freiburg bids and Boca Juniors, does that invalidate them? Please advise.
By countering my own bid it made my prior bid inactive in the same step.
See, that’s not how it works.
Let’s say I counter this one, it doesn’t make my U21 active bid inactive.That’s not for me to decide, but I would think that you can’t bid on WZE until your bid for Mudryk expires or is countered by another eligible team. IMO there is a way for you to do this, but it would mean a 10 million bid for WZE.
It IS the rule. You can’t counter a bid when you have one active already.
I would say you bidding on your own bid is a counterbid, thus it is against the rules since you have an active bid.
But again, if Zizou said it’s allright, then it’s allright.
He seems to have told you it was, and apparently he told PP too.
So rules will be rules.The rules states:
“– Only one open bid per team is allowed.”
I have only ever had one open bid with Boca Juniors as I do presently.
For the record, Zizou hasn’t said anything to me saying this was allowed or not allowed.

Like I said, this isn’t personal and for the record I don’t think it’s “cool”, but it’s an option as the rules are stated at least as I read them. That said, of course I don’t enforce the rules. For the record I did reach out to Zizou prior to bidding and immediately after the bid was made. I have nothing to hide with regards to that conversation, but since it involved both of us I’ll just share what I told him after I made the bid and that was simply informing him of the bid as I wanted to be upfront.
With regards to this sort of bidding, I actually think it should be an option. Say you miss out on Messi and you in turn want to up your bid on Ronaldo you can then do so. I also think that communicating you plan a counter bid is in some ways a “gentleman’s move”, however if it also involves the option of you offering a trade to get the player cheaper than your counter bid then I would say that should be considered with regards to the how “gentlemanly” it is overall. That’s not to say I think Evilo had any specific intentions.
By countering my own bid it made my prior bid inactive in the same step. Also, there is precedent for this in past free agency transactions.
Nothing personal, just business,
Boca Juniors 27/1 bids 5 million on Warren Zaire-Emery of PSG
I’d have sold him for 500k.
Confirmed. I’ll post roster moves in the elevator thread. Thank you Evilo, May we never have to trade with one another again! 😂
FC Barcelona
Mathew Ryan
Hmmm…
😮
Well looking at some of the bids out there all I can say is that I could be wanted to be counterbidding. And with regards to that for me it’s not personal and if it is you’re wasting your time and money. My second bid ever was a counter of Gooner and with respect to everyone else is probably the last person I’d wanna do that too.
And on a sidenote if you ever see my posts a bed instead of bid that’s Siri…
SC Freiburg
Toni Lato
Christian Kouame
M’Baye NiangWell the coat is part of the contract that I had to give him.
Waiting on Blaugrana to counterbid 20 mil…
Oh there’s plenty of time for that! Still no need to insult me my friend. Why would I bid 20 million when I only have to bid 19 million?
You spent all that money already?
You sir are not a personal banker are you? 55 million and counting!
