Remember what we did with the Zidane sale?

I'm not suggesting we do, I love Gigi but the money we would get if used wisely would be huge.
:D

I see what you mean, I just don't think it's worth it right now. We're on our way back to being one of the big boys in Europe and simply need him. For me, Buffon is irreplaceable.

Just out of curiosity.. Do you know who exactly we bought with Zidane's money?

Not bad at all. I don't think we'd be able to buy such quality now though, but I see how people find it tempting.

Let's just keep Superman if we can, I reallllly don't want to see him go. :p

Exactly. One player bought us 3 world class champions. Just as mark said, not bad huh?

And look at what those 3 player brought this team. What Buffon/Nedved brought has been priceless.

I don't think Zidane alone financed those three moves.

Inzaghi was sold at about that time as well, wasn't he?

Not sure.

I'd need to see the value of the deals in Euros, since I can't remember what the exchange rate was like back then.

we also bought Zenoni and Salas that year and sold Pippo, Bachini, van der Sar and Kovacevic.

We sold for about 306m liras and bought players for ~265m liras.

In: Thuram, Zenoni, Buffon, Nedved, Amoruso(back form loan), Maresca(same), Zalayeta(same) and Salas.

Out: Brighi(loan), Inzaghi, Bachini, Zidane, Perrotta(co-own?), Ametrano, Zanchi(loan), Fonseca(out of contract), van der Sar, Esnaider(loan), Kovacevic.
