Perhaps the reason that we apparently bid so little is the fact that we were getting no additional extras with Villa (sponsorships etc). I believe that the club saw him as a puller for interest in the club from overseas & was therefore worth a punt for a 31 year old who has recently recovered from a very serious injury.
Take those away and any deal doesn't look quite as tasty from a club point of view. If we had to choose between a deal for Villa or a deal for the 2 Croatians, I'd take the Croatians any day of the week. Let's make our own world recognised superstars than buying some piece of sirloin that's been sitting in the cabinet for the last month! Fresh meat will be more mouthwatering and far, far tastier!
