Yeah sadly it was Beppe. Diego, Melo and Amauri were Secco. But to be fair no big players wanted to join us when we were that bad and not in the CL. I am sure we could do alot better with that money right now. I just wish we paid over the odds on quality back then. If thats what it took we should have done it cuz at least if u blow 40 million on a guy like Aguero you know what you get.. its much better the spending 40 million on 3 decent players hoping they will perform better then they have ever performed in their lives. Thats kinda a foolish approach which we have hopefully seen the last of.
It makes me shiver thinking Jorge 'Malaka' Martinez costs as much as Tevez lol

50 million is a joke offer. We could easily get 70 million for him in the current market and he shouldn't be sold for less.
Yeah, if it was a team like Arsenal or Milan bidding 50 million it would be realistic considering they are cheapskates. But for Madrid to offer 50 million, that is actually low balling us. They spent 39 million Euro on Illarramendi so I would expect them to offer much more for Vidal after the last few seasons he has had.
Maybe 50 million plus Modric or 80 million euro straight up. Either way though they can F-off. Vidal is the heart of our team and an anomaly in terms of his combined attacking and defensive play. He is like having Makelele for defense and Lampard for goals in one player. I would honestly sell anyone at the club before I sold Vidal.
