23 mill Euros. Paid in cash.

Wonder where they got the dough...

Maybe Ronaldo is going to Real after all ...
 
Inter is becoming an all star team of Real Madrid stature now. On top of this, they have plenty of cover and have young talents like Emre and Dalmat. Let's hope they will not be as succesfull as the latter...
 
Cannavaro is over-rated, but £15m is reasonable in today's market.

Cannavaro would be the star player in a team full of carnies. (small hands you know)
 
skysports say it was around £10 million??

canavarro's a better defender (at the moment), but rio's better long-term value.

or at least should be.

i'd loved to see canna, handle crosses...

I doubt Rio would have been classed as being a better defender by you Mancs last season..

But then Stam was the best CB in the world..

Till he left

;)
 
Davo, pay no attention to Man Utd fans; they look more and more like ass roma fans, they think they always have the best. <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laugh Out Loud]" />
But to be honest, at least they have a glorious and winning team, while ass roma... <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laugh Out Loud]" /> <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laugh Out Loud]" /> <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laugh Out Loud]" />

Anyway, great news Canna at Inter: shite papers will leave Nesta alone, now! <img src="graemlins/smirk.gif" border="0" alt="[Smirk]" />
 
Couldn't sell Nesta ehh ? Shocking as he's far and away 'the world's best defender' ;)
 
Here comes the childish Raoul again: Nesta is NOT for sale, unless somebody comes up with at least 55 million euros. Or 30 million euros PLUS a great player of our choice. End of story, while your liver still aches because you'll never see him at Old Trafford.

Wheres our money then parsimonious percy.

You havent given it to Arkan have you?
 
Doesn't Nesta have a huge buyout clause in his contract?

10 million for Cannavaro is a very good deal...no matter how short he is.

I gave it to the Neurologial Institute, to release you. But they want you in there, you are such a nutcase! Science needs to study real stupidity.

Don't think so. Not at the moment anyway.

Cannavaro has more experience at playing at the highest level, be it the National side, the CL or Serie A.

Rio has had one excellent tournament so far, namely the WC, but he is only 23 yrs old. In time he might develop into the best defender in the world..., but presently I think the likes of Nesta, Cannavaro, Montero, Samuel, Stam, Hyppia and Lucio are slightly better.

Have you ever seen him play? He has a phenomenal jump. But then again, looking at Iverson you might ponder whether he can play ball in the NBA. <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laugh Out Loud]" /> <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laugh Out Loud]" /> <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laugh Out Loud]" />


You won't find me often praising Inter, but this time they made an excellent buy.
