We shall see what them Germans can bring to Real Madrid. Another Inter perhaps from the times of Andreas Brehme, Lothar Matthäus, and Jürgen Klinsmann which was very successful by the way.

Woodgate hardly played due to injury, Owen was left on the bench for the majority of his time there despite being 2 top scorer for the club behind Ronaldo, and Beckham has just won La Liga and played an important role in that achievement. "English plan" sounds bizarre when there were more Spanish and Brazilians (Baptista, Ronaldo, Carlos, Robinho) there at the time. Typical Puro Spin ;-)

A poll on Marca's website has 37% of people saying Woodgate was the worst signing of the 21st century in La Liga

dudek and gravesen beat out woodgate?

Well, Dudek hasn't had a chance to f@ck up yet. Let's hope it comes soon

Woodgate is one overrated piece of shite. I'm better than that fucko nowadays, and in my prime...forget'bout it.

[quote="otto hat Euch alle lieb"]good point , alive

but German clubs are notoriously bad at putting a decent price on their players

France as well: Just a few examples:

2006 Gourcuff signs for Milan Ac: 4-5 millions

2003 Gaël CLICHY (Arsenal) £250,000

1996 Anelka signs for Arsenal for £500,000

It always makes me laugh when I see these kind of players sold for peanuts to foreign teams. It's a waste of money.

So did Madrid look on you tube?

since he only played 2 games for Berlin!
