:agree:

Amauri for 25m is one the biggest crimes in football history.
Kaka for ~60 (Real Madrid)
Sulejmani for 17 (Ajax (their biggest transfer fee EVER))
Huntelaar for 25 (to Real Madrid, left after 6 months)
Quaresma for 28 (Inter)
Robinho for 40 (Man City)

I can see bigger crimes. Nontheless Amauri never was worth that amount.

That's an insult to Kaka. The guy is a proven world class player. Besides, he probably payed of that amount just by selling shirts.

The rest...true, but hey, at least they were young, talented prospects. Amauri was a 28 year old prospect, late bloomer that never bloomed. Just a horrible transfer. For 10m it would have been OK.

We did pay only 12m. Actually, we paid 22 but we gave Nocerino and half of Lanzafame for 10m eur, so that's how we ended up with a 12m eur minus.
Would have been better business if we kept that 12m and sold those two. Maybe then Poulsen's wages wouldn't have burdened us so much.

On Krasic's second goal, Amauri lost the ball and actually started to put up his arm as if to say, "Help! I was fouled! Blow the whistle!" which he has done countless of times before and which has never worked. However, today he decided to win the ball back, which was a very good choice as he did get the ball to Pepe, who delivered in the cross for Krasic to lunge for.
