10 years ago we had shittiest transfer market ever since the Sheikh Mansour era..
Mancini was waiting for De Rossi and RVP and maybe Bale as well :D TBF Mancini had the point -> guy won PL title against fucking Fergie and his United, who were playing like robots.. You can hate current Liverpool team, but at least they have got some quality players and even though you can't bear, it's logical when they win.. But United ? Phil Jones and Johny fucking Evans and other shitheads, except Rooney - they didn't have quality players, so it was Fergie and his "magic", which made this whole process unbearable..
And so Mancini waits for those three players, to compete for another title and maybe CL and at this stage at the end of July we only had Jack Rodwell :DDD and Adam Johnson / Dejong were gone.. And on 31-th of August we got the perfect pack of players: Scotty Sinclair, Xavi aka slow Garcia, Maicon's fake double and Nastasic..
10 years later our transfer window is masterpiece created by Txiki and other ones.. You can't even wish for the better one...
