You must really hate that you've signed Lukaku, Courtois, Romeu, wanted Pastore, chasing Moutinho then?

you're completely missing the point.... all those transfers are relatively cheap compared to the Sneijder one.. well except for the Pastore on and we evidently disagreed to match Zamperini's ridculous valuation of the player
I didn't directly compare, said with some work, he could be that sort of player
He ain't been the same player since those injuries a couple seasons back.
possibly cos he was not fully fit with the World Cup and what not..... still if he flops this season then your point is fully valid cos all my reasons would be negated
£20m for Lukaku is cheap, now? You're completely missing the point, hypocrisy is awesome bro. England isn't as special as we make it out to be, if a player is determined to succeed he will succeed there. The "Non-PL proven" excuse is a pile of **** by opposition fans who are fearful of a rivals new big signing.
Whenever a smaller club spends their budget on a foreign player no one bats an eyelid, usually just a "top player, good signing". Even though RELATIVELY that player is as important and costly to the small club as the big club. Just when City sign Aguero, it's easy to say "Oh yeah, great player, thankfully he's not PL proven, no worries".
Sneijder has played in 3 different leagues and has excelled in all of them, clearly showing his determination to succeed. If you don't think you can hack the big bad England, don't move - ie Ozil. I have no doubts in my mind that should Sneijder move, he's of the mentality to make sure he's a success. Hernandez would have been seen as your typical "Not PL material player", but he was determined, got his head down and hit his weights to adapt. Do I need to remind you what Hernandez did last season, or are the memories fresh?
Birmingham City today played against Spurs in a behind doors friendly at Wast Hills losing 6-3.
This being due to promoting fitness and handing trials to a mass of free agents
Anthony Gardner, expected to sign later this week.
Lomana Lua Lua
Darren Carter
Craig Fagan
Radamas da Silva
and others who are yet to be named!
Loving the resourcefulness of Hughton since he took over, yes i know many of you will look at the players named and whom we have already acquired as useless and squad players at best for most teams, but with the situation we have at our club, and the small size of squad i see every player linked to us as a positive. I certainly wouldnt want to be going to Blues in the situation we are in, however Hughton seems to be able to convince these players otherwise.
I also really like the philosophy of going for local lads Darren Carter and Craig Fagan, both developments from the Blues academy, both Blues fans!! Passion, aggression, playing for the badge, thats all we ask for as fans, especially after the desertion of our entire squad!
Apparently one of if not the only money signing at Blues this summer may be Ben Turner CB from Coventry, as he also is a long life blues fan. Old school yet effective man management philosophy from Hughton is aces in my book, and the football we played against Everton at home in the friendly and Derby away was sensational!! Once a bedding in period of gelling and team cohesion occurs i think we will develop into serious playoff contenders, although i will settle for respectable top half after the summer windows events
Keep Right On the Bosman Blues!!!

I seriously doubt that, wasn't he supposed to sign for Bunkyondor last year?
No this time its very close and maybe completed very soon. Even Branca said that they will discuss about the deal.
I think 20 or 30 Million Euros transfer fee and Eto'o will be paid 20Million Euros Net..
Samuel Eto'o move to Anzhi Makhachkala is almost done - Inter star's agent - Goal.com
Aight. Not bad. With Arshavin possibly coming, Anzhi are beginning to have a team capable of overtake Zenit and CSKA as the best team. I mean, when you've got shitloads of money, why stop spending and be a smaller club than Zenit and CSKA? Why not use the money from that bottomless pit and make yourselves a force in Europe even.

It started way before Abramovich. He has started a chain of careless spending though.
A football club is a business..
