Some observations I've made while playing numerous games as Newcastle boss.
As we start off with so little cash, I always try to raise some by selling who I can.
Given - set his asking price to 8.5 mill - Bayern always match that - any higher, they wont.
Carr - sell for 1 mill - usually Reading
Babayaro - 250k to Bolton
Bramble - 500-600k to Rangers
Moore - cant give him away
Dyer - between 2.2mill and 4mill - Villa etc
N'Zogbia - 6.5mill to Chelski
Luque - 375k is the most Ive got for him - Osasuna
Solano - 1.9mill Sampdoria a few times
Ameobi - 1.9mill various teams, particularly Charlton
I've not sold any of the others but I've had good offers for Parker, Martins, Emre and so on.
Now, I'm not saying you want to, or ought to sell any of those players but with a lack of any funds (which I find odd, considering we were making late big bids for Huth, Viduka etc) these are some options.
I must say, I always sell Nobby, and replace him with Sherman Cardenas, wonderful player.
Brian McBride is great value for 150k and better than Sibierski, who I forgot on that list and will sell for 1.5mill easily.
I have to admit, I'm only 6th place with a few changes, we're definitely not a
prem champs side.
If you get the cash, Marchena is a great defender and available for 3.6 mill, Maduro, again around that price, two young Chilian players, a left back and CB, forget their names, both cracking young players.
Cheers.
