for a player of his quality, 17-20m is too much.
rafael buys without brain at all.
not that he isnt good, but what he has doesnt tally with the
price tag.
Hi Poignant, seriously after reading a few posts from you, I'm
doubtful of your judgement of players and their ability. <-- is
my judgement of yours fair, after only a few posts? Just like how
people are judging Aquilani after a few games?
True, RB buys using money instead.
Anyway, price tags are inflated these days anyway. Aquilani is a
really good footballer. He's just as quick thinking and technically
as good as Alonso, but he's much more mobile and more attacking
than the former.
Case in point, he's always moving about into the empty spaces,
releases his teammates early, can pass with both feet, and willing
to take on players. All these, unlike a certain Brazillian that
cost us $6 Million back then.
I can't wait for Masch + Aquilani, or Gerrard + Aqulani combo to
hit it off soon. It's just... tantalising. : )
