No 'fixation', it's simply where the value is, along with Spain.
Spain? Value? Lol, you'll have to contend with Barcelona+Real before signing anyone.

Italy is where the real value is, desperate clubs with a decent set of players. But, yep, Germany has a far superior pool of younger, talented and technically gifted players.

Whereas in Germany there is Bayern. Barca/Madrid can't sign everyone, and the Spanish league produces a surplus of players that are good enough for top PL clubs. Wenger used his 6 incher on Malaga last season, getting 40m worth of footballers at basically half the price.

Nope, the quality just isn't there right now.

United/Chelsea/City/Arsenal can comfortably compete with Bayern whereas Barca+Madrid are far tougher competition.

Brilliant value in Spain at the moment. Any player that Barca/RM don't want is shipped out for half of what they'd be sold for if they were playing for an English club. Villa for €5m, Benat €8m, Michu €2m etc. Crazy figures for what you're getting.

Exactly, some of the Spanish clubs are in crazy debt. Once the Spanish clubs (and Spain full stop) can figure out the economics, they'll be the best league in the world.

You can say the same for Italy, Di Natale, De Rossi + Montolivo (free) are priced cheaply.

Urgh. We've already been discussed Di Natale dude. Montolivo was available for free and didn't listen to any offers bar Milan's, who made him club captain and now deem him 'untransferable'. As for De Rossi, he's hardly value. Getting older and he's on well over 100k per week at Roma.

Then there's Verratti (£10M), El Shaarawy (around £25M), Balotelli (around £20M)and Pirlo (free).

Balotelli? Fuck are you on about mate, he came from the PL. Going to cost at least two and a half times what Milan paid for him to take him.

I assume he's on about when those players were signed. Verratti joined PSG from Pescara for around 10m, Balotelli joined City for 20m ish. Not sure what the SES reference is about though. Maybe it's "too late" again :cheek:

Verratti was good value in hindsight, but he was a player that hadn't played a single game in Serie A. Balotelli was nothing more than a prospect when we signed him, very young, very raw, a massive gamble. Neither represents brilliant value as such.
