WTF russian???? Barca and especially Real spending millions of doallars every year and world keep quiet, no one wants to deal with the "giants". But when Chelsea buying every papery screams AWOL. Get your facts right.
BTW Barca were going nowhere w/o Eto'o. Ronnie can't make a difference by himself, he needs players around him. (Sheva case).
lmfao. i dont c barac spending as much as chelsea do u mate. lets c how much $$ they waste on pointless trasnfers:
Chelsea:
Ricardo Carvalho Porto £19.85m
Paulo Ferreira Porto £13.2m
Arjen Robben PSV £9m
Mateja Kezman PSV £5m
Didier Drogba Marseille £24m
Asier Del Horno Bilbao £8m
Shaun Wright-Phillips Manchester City £21m
Michael Essien Lyon £24.4m
John Obi Mikel Lyn Oslo £16m
Andriy Shevchenko Milan £31.2m
Khalid Boulahrouz SV Hamburg £ 7mil
Tiago Benfica £ 8mil
TOTAL OF: 195.65Mil with mourinho incharge
if u take drogba and robben and
cech out as it was not mourinhos buy he just basicaly confirmed it then mourinho has spent 173.5. ill take away thos bought this season as it 2 early to judge so that makes it 108.3mil
now let c how many of the transfers have been worthywhile.
Worthy:
Ricardo Carvalho
Essien (took his time to settle)
Paulo Ferreira (inbetween is decent player)
the only player who play reguraly at chelsea and are still there that are good.
works out to be 57.45 spent wisely. wot happend to the other 45mil???
shocking transfers:
kezman, del horn, shaun wright philips, tiago= 45.4 mil wasted.
now lets look at barca with rijkaard:
Rustu Fenerbahce Free
Rafael Marquez Monaco Signed
Ronaldinho Paris St-G. £ 21250000
Ricardo Quaresma Sporting Lisbon
Juliano Belletti Villarreal
Ludovic Giuly Monaco
Henrik Larsson Celtic Free
Deco Porto €15M fee
Sylvinho Celta Vigo
Giovanni Van Bronckhorst Arsenal Signed
Samuel Eto'o Mallorca £ 18140000
Demetrio Albertini Atalanta Free
Mark Van Bommel PSV Eindhoven
i couldnt find all the ammounts for barca but as u can c they are way more effective with their spending then mourinho is.
positives: ronaldinoho, guily, deco, etoo, larsoon did well, van bronckhorts, marquez.
davids wen he came on laon also did well.
can some1 find the prices for the other please then i can calculate the prices and im sure that barca didnt spend us much as chelsea and overpay their players.
now tell me why the press yell each time chelsea spend coz they waste ther money. barca pay good money for good players like this season with thurham and zambrotta and gudjunhos. althuoh chelsea did buy well with sheva ballack mikel they need time to settle and there manager doesnt seem to be able to help much whilst rijard imo knows how to play playesr n he buy players he needs no just big names like real madrid who have always been known for the big buys whilst chelsea doesnt seem to give a shit who they buy aslong as they seem to have talent and dont realy care bout the positions and ballack n lampard cant play in the same team duh
