papaguy51 912 Posted August 1, 2008 Author Share Posted August 1, 2008 Not at all Chambo, even without our wee discussion this morning I would still have said it. Sneijder is actually 2 inches smaller than Beasley funnily enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sneijder is actually 2 inches smaller than Beasley funnily enough. And weight? Regarless, putting Beasley and Sneijder in the same sentence is criminal.

TMWWBK 0 Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 6m euros was it? No fucking way? Closer to £10 million i believe.

Its ashame he'll come in as a straight replacement for Sneijder though, i was looking forward to seeing them link up again. Been looking about and Sky sports said the price was 10million euros. Absolute bargain. To think players like Bentley/Keane/Bent go for 16-20mill and this lad goes for 7mill.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Stars Bearette 1 Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 decided in the night 13 mill Euro plus 2 mill success bonus Real certainly got a bargain. EPL has distorted the market so much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMWWBK 0 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Do you think you and Guti are compatible? Guti is a fantastic player, but so is everyone else who plays for Real Madrid. I don't think we'll have any problems playing together. The coach will decide what position each of us will play, but Guti is one of the best players on the squad.
