put extra 9 million and get Diego instead !
Its ironic how most persons in this forum dont think that Frings is worth 11 million Euros when the vast majority of Werder fans consider him to be their BEST player (NOT Klose or DIEGO) - 30 is a good age in world football at this moment. Not only is Frings ripe with experience but he can be that midfield engine that we need for A...he is a 'box to box' player who contributes a lion share both to his team's offensive and defensive cause. I would more than welcome him for that money...Can't wait to see him in the black and white

Let take a step back and think of this for a second. We currently have in the central midfield:
ZANETTI
GIANNICHEDDA
PARO
MARCHISIO
With the option of:
TACCHINARDI
NOCERINO
On the flanks we have:
NEDVED
CAMORANESI
MARCHIONNI
SALIHAMIDZIC
I am definately all for bringing in one defensive midfielder, but we need to focus on the flanks where we have Camoranesi (who we don't know is staying or not) and Nedved (who is reaching the end of his career). Behind them there is no one guys. Salihamidzic is a solid sub, even a good rotation player, but we need some more depth here for sure because I have my doubts on the starting ability of Marchionni.
We need some players who can move down the flanks.
To hear the names Frings, Diego, Almiron, Ribery are great, but we need to think about picking up some Italians as well. I don't want to turn into Inter Milan.
According to my notes, we will need to spend money on 2 CB's, 1 DM, 1 SM, and 1 Striker. That is after we acquire Grygera and Salihamidzic.
Also, we can't be foolish thinking that we can go into the Serie A season with a totally new lineup. That is just silly. Knowing well that we have to replace the central defenders and possibly the RB, we can't just go putting a new central midfield in as well.
Between Zanetti, Giannichedda, Paro, Marchisio, and Tacchinardi we will have a decent middle core as far as depth goes. If the assumed departures of Tacchinardi and Giannichedda take place, than we are certainly due for 1 maybe 2 DM's. The first being a very good defensive midfielder and the second a good youngster or solid vet.
The point is:
We have to work new players in with our current squad. We can't just think that our next years lineup will or should consist of more than 4 new starters. It is just silly. Please stop with these bogus lineups.

What with the new trend of us fearing of expensive players! We got three players, two of them are free; Salhimadizic and Grygera. Frings won't cost us more than £7m at the maximum and we still haven't broken the bank.
Did you guys forget that the club has launched officially a £72m capital increase to cut debt, improving our youth section and for the transfer market?! This means that we'll spend around £45m on the mercato according to some announcements and prospects. Plus, the players whom we intend to sell by the summer. Therefore, to break up the bank for a player like Diego, whom we desperately need, is a wise step and not the opposite.

Ahmedios.
I think we need to spend money on
2 CB
1 DM
1 SM
1 CF
5 Player isn't a lot for 45m, especially if we spend some money (as we should) on a striker like Huntelaar or Bianchi. Or a solid CB or two. I would personally indulge in M. Diarra or Gilberto Silva.
I agree with you that there is a trend forming on these forums. Everyone likes to think it is a video game and they are wheeling and dealing. But, I can understand it too an extened because 45m is not too much to spend on 5 players.
