anyway back to the real topic-
for me Buffon is the best keeper in the world,he could easily do a Dino Zoff and play till he is 40 so if we were to sell him we better be buying a quality YOUNG replacement. the trouble with us right now is that we have 1 tremendous world class keeper,4 top quality forwards,2 very good DM,but only 1 great wide man and only 1 quality CB...now there is no point having the worlds best keeper with an average defense, we are the epitome of "all fur coat and no knickers!"
with the money we would get for buffon, yes we could buy ribery,but it would be pointless unless we used the money we have and the transfer to regenerate our side. selling buffon should only be an option if we are doing as we did when we sold zidane. we have a history of selling players we have nurtured into world class stars for huge profits and using it to unearth even bigger gems,but selling buffon would be suicidal if the money is not used wisely.
