Pounds is about €28mill Euro. Didn't teams from these so called not so up to par with Europe beat the European Champions twice in a row? Liverpool and the so called best team in the world Barcelona. Also did Michael Carrick prove himself to justify such transfer fee? The answer is obvious. TO Todd:

I hope not. After £128m over 5 years he'd be taking the p!ss to have a testimonial.. Sorry i forgot... it's not about the money. Anyway, no to a testimonial on the basis of his lies as he left Old Trafford. He isn't called Liar7 for no reason. Testimonial. I hope not.

The Authorer clearly has no idea what he is talking about. First of, David Beckham was not offered less money, he was offered the same contract, just extended 2 years. The problem was that David Beckham wanted 50% if his imgagerighs back whice Real Madrid hold, thats where the problem was because Real Madrid Refused to give that up. Secondly! About those 3 South Americans, Real Madrid did not have to break the bank to get them. They payed a fair price for each one of them. Marcelo: €6mill. Gago: €18milll.(Considering Boca wanted 25 for him, i think that was a good deal) Higuaín: €12mill. . Now Compare that to the €28mill. Manchester united payed for Michael Carrick and the €30mill. for Ferdinand. What a stupid aticle .. The Authorer clearly has no idea what he is talking about.
