"Was thinking earlier this evening"

We got John Terry, Damien Duff and Arjen Robben all for less than Man Utd paid for Rooney.

Think I know who got the better deal.

Arsenal probably got Henry, Vieira and Pires for less than Man Utd paid for Rio.

EDIT: And yes, we got ripped off for Didier, even though he is class.

i thought lampard came through the academy.mebbe not.but whered he come from?

2 shillings and a penny nickle.

...failing that though, wasn't it £7Mil?

How much did Lampard cost?

...AND IN THE FACE OF THOSE FACTS; Arjen Robben is a good player, and Duff is a bench warmer :D

You're not allowed to include John Terry since he's a club-starter.

SR rules :P

mutu/crespo

Anyway, rooney's standard transfer was £20M and the other £7M is dependent on performance.


And here they are...

"United will pay Everton £1m if they win the Champions League, £500,000 if they are runners-up. Winning the Premiership will cost them £500,000 and for finishing runners-up they will pay £250,000. An FA Cup success has been priced at £250,000 and another £1m will go Everton's way when Rooney has won 40 England caps. Should he sign a contract extension, Everton will receive £1.5m."

p.s.(Duff and robben are more expensive)

Cole all the way.
