Mad transfers

Honestly, I expect deals like Heinze to Real Madrid to have more of a saga, something the press would enjoy. Or at least something done minutes before the transfer window closes. Pretty much something more dramatic.

Suddenly, without any warning, Belletti moves to Chelsea, Robben goes to Madrid, Heinze to Madrid, and Daniel Alves to stay another year?

Smartest move of the lot would be Belletti to Chelsea. This is one classy right back, playing second fiddle to Zambrotta in Barcelona. Coming to Chelsea means first team football and a team that is hungry of trophies. Yes, Alves is an exceptional talent, but he deserves to stay at Sevilla for one more year before moving to Liverpool next season. Ho ho ho.

And Real Madrid, once collecting galacticos, then started to collect Brazilians, then a bunch of use to bes, then prospects, and now the Dutch collection.

Funny isn't it?
