For £8 million. £8 million.
Let me put this in context for you. Louis Saha went for (how much was it?), £11 million? Alan Smith was nearly £8 million. £8 million is being touted for BEATTIE. Jeffers went for about that.
£8 million. This is ridiculous. Oh, I know we're supposed to be getting some rubbish Madrid sub midfielders in the bargain(Juanfran and Antonio Nunez) but it means nothing to me. I don't want Mikey to go, but if he does go at least let's get £20 million.
£8 million. This shocks me.
Oh, let's make matters worse. The Vieira deal appears to be stalling. Not only is one of the dirtiest players left in the Prem, but Real Madrid will now go looking for the next best thing. And that is?
Xabi Alonso. He's our player, you dirty Madrid toenails. Hands off, we bid and it got accepted. But no, you saved a ton of money by paying Beattie rates for Owen, so you'll probably outbid us for him.
But it's OK! We've got Juanfran and Luis Garcia!
Bloody hell. And Maniche isn't even coming to the Premiership and all. And Hamann will still be first-team.
It's all going so very wrong.

He's so nice to us, helping us in our neverending quest to know as much about football as him.
I wish I was Vampyr. Who's with me?

Ive heard he will be on £100,000 a week

I dont think he would care to much about an etra 200g over 2 years, pocket change.

So he's not, technically speaking, a galactico? That's gotta smart.
