Guimaraes, Aresnal enquiry rejected by Newcastle, varying prices £50-80 million. 28 yrs old going into last 2 years of his contract. What we be prepared to offer? Or to old?

Guimaraes is far more prone to theatrical diving than Mecca. I'd hate to see our club sign him.

Does he actually want to leave Newcastle? He seems to love the club.

Imagine him and Macca,
With that much acting, we could set up our own leg of the Royal Shakespeare Company.

Too old for our model of trading.

I think he's the perfect age for our model of trading. Give him a 5 year contract and he's the right age to leave on a free after he turns 33. ;)

I don't think it will happen, because of his age, he would also want high wages, plus a high transfer fee and at that age there is little resale value. If you're in charge of finances, this transfer wouldn't make sense... Great player though.
I genuinely believe we need to sign someone who can play both 6/8, as I think Dom and Grav can be really good as the 6 & 8 in an AI setup. I am also expecting AI to unlock Macconnell and for him to step up this season.

Are we using AI to choose team setup now? I told you nothing good would come of technology.
