Fickn ManUre, Chavski and ScousePoo have adopted our strategy of finding good players on the cheap. And look what they've managed to pick up. Why the feck can't we find them there as well???
Sorry to say generally Africans can't and generally aren't interested in the art of defending. They love to attack. The Eastern Bloc is where it's at.

Well it's just all the talk about them other lots getting in cheap Easten European imports when Manure paid £7 million for Vidic and I'm sure Skrtel wasn't a kick in the arse of 7 million either.

I think Vidic is quality, Skrtel(how cool is his name btw?) has a lot to prove and apparently Chelski paid near enough £10 million on Ivanovic who still has shed loads to prove as well. Granted all of them have improved their price tag but I think the only two with any real resale value is gonna be Ivanovic and Skrtel, Vidic is in his prime now and Manure won't let him go for a good few seasons. When he does go I'd imagine it would be for less than they paid for him.

But why is £7m too steep? How much would you expect to pay for one? We paid tuppence (if anything at all) for Silvestre who, for all his experience is generally substandard.

To me finding one on the cheap would be about £2 million £7 I'd be expecting someone with CL experience and international prefereably at a EURO or WC. Prices of players are ridiculous these days.
