Ok obviously some people think that some of Rafas buys for our squad have been poor - or in some peoples words :censored:

. So who should rafa of bought instead of these players and realisticly that we could of got for the same price we paid for these players .

Babel 2007 10 mil
Kuyt 2006 10 mil
Lucas 2007 6 mil
Yossi 2007 3mil ?
Dossena 2008 7-8 mil
Ngog 2008 1.5 mil
Pennant 2006 6 mil

Plus anyone else i have missed .

Diego instead of Babel
Berbatov instead of Kuyt
Mancini instead of Lucas AND Benny
Stuck with Riise instead of Dossena (I always liked Riise)
N'gog and Pennant - I wouldn't have bought and saved the money to put towards buying someone decent.

My spends around £20million - Rafa's around £47million.

So who for 7.5 mil for the right hand side saint ? and ovbiously hindsight is great when looking at berbatov cause Rafa nearly bought him couple of years ago and when he played against us he was poor beyond belief .

You asked who would I buy and I told you ..... now I can't use hindsight

I wanted Berbatov years ago mate.

With Diego playing in the creative seconnd striker position, I would play Gerrard on the right mate.

Btw Mancini can play left centre or right.

Diego about £4.5million (I thought he was dearer)
Mancini was a free I think ?
So having saved a bit of money I might even have spashed out on Van der Vaart for £8.5million as well.

yeah i know seen mancini play a few times . mr stepover king .
Sorry didnt say you could use hindsight - but i guess you would be in the minority of people who wanted berbatov before he went to spurs as he was shocking a number of times for bayer.

Didnt mancini want to stay in Italy thou ?

We were interested in him , maybe he got an offer he couldn't refuse? Maybe we should have made him an offer he couldn't refuse? I don't think it was anything to do with wanting to stay in Italy...... just about money...... it usually is.

I may have overdone the creativity a touch mate

but they are all good players.

Yeah they are mate .

If Im honest my world player info is not very good, I dont know about many players in other leagues, so all I can say is I wish he had bought less players of a highe standard..

I can't make you

Babel - Aimar (only 12mill Euros when he left his club in 2006)

Kuyt - Anelka

Yossi - Simao ( linked with him for ages!)

Lucas - kept Sissoko (at least he tackles and stops threats)

Dossena - kept Riise or Warnock (so much more better then Doss!)

Ngog - kept Sinama

Pennant - Ludovic Guily

alot of the current players are no better then what we had or could have had.
