Re: The picture thread>>>> OUCH!!!! We made more money off of Paulo Ferreira than Sporting did for 2 of their best young players ever
Re: The picture thread>>>> My word...you guys are so technical Here are the official numbers: Ronaldo-Man United paid SCP 12.24 million lbs or 17.79 Million Euros Quaresma-Barcelona paid SCP 8 million Euro plus Loan of Rochemback in which SCP only pays 35% of his salary and attains 50% of his pass when sold. The will also get first right of purchase back of Quaresma if he comes to Portugal and 10% of the transfer if his pass is sold. add it all up it comes to roughly 32 Million USD.
Re: The picture thread>>>> Please don't compare Roman "overpaying" for players as a gauge to the players worth. It is understood by everyone in the football world that Abramovich overpaid so as to secure his players and guarantee given to Mourinho when he was signed that he could bring over his "core" players...
Re: The picture thread>>>> Let's not get into all the "Fabulous" deals that the Lampioes have done over the years... Oh that's right they have nothing to sell.... and when they do the President keeps the transfer fee and buys yachts...
Re: The picture thread>>>> I thought this was a picture thread! Does anyone know who this player wearing a Sporting jersey is?
Re: The picture thread>>>> I guess you mean Beto...even though it really doesn't look like him...but this player is taking a shot and Beto was a forward...
Re: The picture thread>>>> Still one of my favorite players...it was great to see him wearing SCP colors...see we can sign World Class players...
Re: The picture thread>>>> It's not Beto and BTW, Beto did start off as a forward. Any other guesses?
Re: The picture thread>>>> I thought at first it was him, but this particular picture makes him look bigger
