Messi to Inter?

BoomAM said:
Yes he is.
Next question... ;)


Yeah. Because taking on Montero is nothing really. ;)


LOL not really, its because its boring tbqh...cant remember the last time i watched a Serie A game, i do like AC though out of all the teams in the Serie A though but as i said i find it extremely boring and tedious...too defensive for my liking but thats how i see it:).

You've pretty much answered your own viewpoint there for me.
You havnt seen it in a while. SeriaA is a lot different to how it used to be.
Im gonna leave it at that though, before this thread spirals out of control. :)

Not that i'm arguing because you seem to know and it's all guess work my end, but, how exactly do you know?

I would imagine you can provide a fairly accurate figure if you're claiming that he is worth billions. It's all still speculation on both parts until someone provides a figure one way or the other. ;)

If he is involved in oil then my guess has already gone up, but I still don't see him in the Abromovich £5-6 Billion mould, tho he is certainly very wealthy as shown by the way he has bankrolled Inter over the last decade.

How do you know Abramovich is loaded? Do you know him? Or are you going off the reports in the papers and the evident amount of money he has spent on Chelsea?
Its the same thing for Moratti. Its reported in the papers he's loaded, and its evident by the £400m+ he's spent on Inter in the last 6-7 seasons.

If he is involved in oil then my guess has already gone up, but I still don't see him in the Abromovich £5-6 Billion mould, tho he is certainly very wealthy as shown by the way he has bankrolled Inter over the last decade.
Its funny. All this effort to try and prove something that cant really be proved outright. In the same way that we cant prove Abramovich being a billionaire.
Chelsea arnt the only team in the world with a sugar daddy. The only difference is that the other teams that have that backing are already established and dont need to spend rediculus amounts of money to establish themselves. They're at a point where they can make money on their own, and only occasionally need a boost to buy big.
A phase that Chelsea are still in, they need Abramovich to bankroll them until they can go into what Kenyon called their second phase, where they can continue to be a big club without Abramovich's help.
Both Milans & Juve have this backing, and all three are owned by billionaires that have comparable amounts of money to Abramovich, but as ive said, they're at a point where they dont need the injection of cash as much as Chelsea do atm.
I predict that your responce to the above will be the same as before, how do i know he/they have that amount of money? The answer is i dont. But on the same note: you dont know how much Abramovich has either, so how could you comment as well? ;)

As for the Sheva link, interesting to say the least...if anything Sheva has been the biggest flop in the premiership this season imho...i think Chelsea wasted a hell of a lot of cash on him.

a lot of people said the same of Drogba, now he is one of the most in-form strikers in europe. I would give Sheva a few more months before I would start calling him a flop ;)
 
...next season. If he hasnt hit it off by the first few games of next season, then classify him as one. ;)

What a silly comment. :o

Of course I am going off reports in the papers, and media in general. It was well publicised when Abramovich first arrived that he had ammassed a fortune of between £5-6 billion through his dealings in oil.

As you say, it would be pointless to ask how you know what Moratti is worth, but you haven't yet given any reason why you even think he is worth as much as Abromovich. My comments on Abramovich's wealth are of course based on media reports, that's all I can base them on. You don't even provide that much. ;)

As I have previously said, i'm not exactly arguing the point and have no problem being shown to be wrong, I would actually be interested to know how much Moratti is worth. The problem is I find it hard to believe someone who tells me something and then backs it up with absolutely nothing.

Its to prove a point. Your saying how do i know Moratti's loaded, when you have no grounds to know that Abramovich is loaded either. Your going off the same evidence as me, media talk.

Your missing my point completely there. Moratti's reported wealth, just like Romans, is from the media. And in Italy, he is reported to have quite a few billion stashed away.

The problem is I find it hard to believe someone who tells me something and then backs it up with absolutely nothing.
But again, you havnt backed up your Abramovich statement with much either, as ive said, its impossible to prove really.
Your opinion of the two is based on recent spendings as an indication of how much they have, with Abramovich obviously spending more, but, if you read my post, you'd see a likely reason why:

does it really matter who wins this arguement?

moratti is rich, roman is uber rich....leave it at that.
Ah, thats where your wrong, according to wedgie22, its not an arguement, and he doesnt care if he's proved wrong. ;).

My opinion on either persons wealth is in no way based on how much the club they are involved with has spent over the past 3 years, literally, that factor hadn't even occured to me.

That's fine, seein as media reports are all either of us can go on then I don't see any other way of judging them. Like you say, neither of us know for sure, but it's not as if we're going to get hold of bank statements so all it can ever be is speculation and guess work.

If you say you have read reports that Moratti is worth a few billion himself then I accept that, I just didn't think it would be so hard to get out of you when your first reply to my post seemed to indicate you knew for a fact. ;)

Oh the Hypocrisy ;)
 
Would have thought a more realistic fee would be around half that. £30m + Adriano is still pretty huge, especially given Chelsea would probably stump up £20m+ for Adriano.
