If we sold Clichy for say 6 million, and then brought in Baines for 12 million, would you guys be satisfied? I personally quite like Clichy, I love his work-rate and speed, despite his lack of awareness BUT if we were to get Baines, then I think it would really soften the blow. What do you guys think?

if leighton baines is worth 12 million, the footballing world has truly gone nuts.

We can hope, eh ? I personally think its funny that our transfer record is still 14 million (for Wiltford I think?) when you have teams like Chelsea paying 18 million for Zhirkov. Strange.

Why? He's better than your useless Clichy. By a country mile and has been better than Ashley for about 18months now. Should be England's no1 left back.

I swear it is for Wiltford ? Who else could it have been?

Unless it was Arshavin. I still don't know what our final price for him was, something around the 14 million mark?

Arshavin, I think it went somwhere near 17 million in the end?

17 MILLION ?!?! wow, is all I can say. I didn't think it was anything more than 15 million (max) but that has put a whole new spin on things
