Season 25 Week 15 processing...

Walcott & Chamberlain have moved to Charlton, whilst Shaw & Gabriel & £25millions have moved to Arsenal. Kyle Lafferty has also joined the Gunners from Leicester.

Lewis Holtby leaves Watford for Tottenham in a £9millions deal.

Gremio sell Forlin back to Boca for £9millions.

Real sell Pulido to Atletico for £1.5millions.

Nice to see a few of you taking advantage of permanent bids made by reality managers.

Gareth Bale's move from Ancona to Watford for £40millions has been ratified and he'll join Watford's bid for the Premiership title next week.

Barcelona have recalled Alex Pato from his loan spell at Flamengo and he is currently in negotiations with Schalke and a possible swap deal involving Neymar, more news on that to follow.

If I'm completely honest, I've had worse weeks in Hemsoft than this one....

More transfer news as deals are done and agreed before the impending deadline...

Harry Kane has agreed a move to Ancona from Villa in exchange for Christian Benteke, Andy Robertson and £30millions.

A decision has been made on the Neymar Pato swap deal but i'm just trying to get confirmation of the outcome before broadcasting it. Wont be long now if I can find somebody to confirm the outcome.

Yes, I can confirm that Neymar has signed for Barcelona for £67.5millions whilst Alex Pato has joined Schalke for £25millions.

There have been some big deals in the last few weeks.

That's it for the transfers, time for the coaching & finances now.

Thanks Paul. Great week. Did Assombalonga go to Villa as well for 7m?

We've signed him purely for the fans as they have some great chants prepared for his name. Oh yeah and he's really good. Watch this space.

Printing now...

There will be a 3 week deadline for the week 16 as the next 2 week deadline falls on my wedding anniversary and I'm guessing my wife will want me to take her away somewhere romantic so CF will have to take a back seat for a few days.

Paul ........... word of advice. Apparently football stadium tours are not the way to go. I know this sounds crazy but they just don't like it and don't think it's romantic ........ even in Madrid (no-one can tell me the site of the 1980 European Cup final isn't romantic).  I speak from painful experience. And I'll obviously never understand women.

Congrats mate, how many years you been tied down....

Lol I agree with you Rob, I can't even get mine to sit through a game on Sky...

I think over the years I've wore my missus down, she never use to be interested in football at all, when I met her she didn't really know what football was or how it affected us guys, but then she found out one weekend when City lost and I was in a "mood"  . Now she's pretty good, even knows a few footballer's names and certainly knows most of the teams and how good they are, I make her sit through match of the day each saturday just to serruptitiously keep her current  . She use to support "people", like when David Seaman was playing she was an Arsenal fan, then when he signed for City she became a City fan. I "think" she's still a City fan, ( but you never know with women ) cos she asked me the other week how we got on against Burnley ( she'd been out all day ) and was a bit disappointed that we'd lost. That's the upside of a long relationship with the right person, the downside is that I have to reciprocate by taking an interest in her interests, which is endlessly boring trips to antique fairs and shops to look at bone china. So she's now a decent expert on City and i'm an expert on bone china, go figure

I don't feel as though i'm tied down, but married life is certainly a lot different than bbeing on your own, we first met in 1977, spent a couple of years living together then got married in 1980.

Finishing the printing then I'll send out the email turns.

Email turns all sent.

Thanks Paul, didn't actually think this week could get any better, but then find out I've managed to pick up David Alaba and Nathan Souza.

Happy days.

I've gone back to a 2 week deadline for week 16 but week 17 may be a 3 week deadline, I'll be sure to let you know as soon as I know for sure.

Just opened up my turn and very pleased that herr muller has joined Flamengo with a few others coming in too.  Now to figure out the squads! 

Hi Paul, for some reason Andreas Pereira has decided to up and leave to Watford when i havent sanctioned any deal?
