Sneijder 35M € Pastore 43M € does that make sense?

United is offering 35M euro for Sneijder when Pastore was sold for 43M euro. That is crazy. Does anyone think Moratti would sell him for less than Zamparini got for a relatively unproven Pastore?

Could it be media hype?

" Il Manchester United è tornato alla carica con un'offerta di 35 milioni di euro"

"Manchester returned to the charge with an offer of 35 miliion euro"

we all know that pastore's price is inflated. 30 mil max, and that sounds far fetched still.

dont know why compare these 2 deals.

sneijder's is good and balanced, we know what to expect.

while pastore isnt as clear and is inflated.

PSG can afford to overpay, Manchester Utd cannot.

It doesn't make sense, but when you have oil-rich clubs like PSG about most transfers just don't make any sense. They'll pay over-the-top prices simply because they can afford to.

of course it doesnt make sense.

Yes it makes sense.

Pastore will be on max 100k a week wages whereas Sniejder will want around 250k a week.So over the length of their contract (assuming 5 years) Sniejder will cost nearly 35 mil higher than Pastore.Also Pastore would still have high resale value after 5 years whereas Sniejder wont.

Trnasfer fees are not based on just quality of player alone.

No way Pastore will be on 100k wages.

Nothing makes sense these days...

But beautiful game has a pretty fair point.

Well el kun to city was £39m but barca want cesc for around £35m. some clubs are supposedly ready to pay in xcess of €45m for neymar. and clichy should be worth much more than 6mil even if he had only a day left on his contract. the transfer market is so so crazy!

Plus PSG were in a bid war with Chelsea, while no one else is bidding for Sneijder (not that it justifies it, but that more than likely affected there prices allot)

Rumours said only 2 more years to go till the new transfer policy take effect... So I am guess the transfer market will have a very high inflation for another 2 years...

Thats a wrong peerception regarding FTP

Pastore may be overpriced, but he's also younger isn't he?

Look at the difference of age. You have to factor in potential resale price. That's why younger players usually are bought for more if they are stars.

Because 45m is alot of money.

Also, since when did the Ballon D'or dictate players prices?

And no, he shouldnt of won the ballon d'or.

Yeah being the best player in a treble winning squad and the team which reached the World Cup final in one year is not enough

Well the Ballon D'Or is a matter of opinion.

Was he even Inter's most important player when winning the CL?

Lucio and Samuel take the biggest credit for beating Chelsea.

It was a total team effort to beat Barca, nobody stood out. I think Cambiasso and Samuel were the best two players over the two legs.

In the final against Bayern, I think Milito was the best player.


In the league, he had great moments and he had a great season. But Eto'o and Milito could be called just as valuable, so could the two at the back Samuel and Lucio.

In the WC, he scored quite a few goals. Most of them lucky deflections and rebounds. Credit where it was due, he got the goals, but Holland didnt actually play good at any point and Snijeder never really stood out.

I concede he should of been in the running, no question about that, but the Ballon D'or is about the best individual player for that season. I dont think it was Snijeder to be honest.

I have to agree with you. But most of all it is difficult not to give the Ballon D'Or to a player on the WC winning team in a WC year. He should have been in the running at least, though. But, he is worth more than Pastore, that's for sure.

Who do you think it is Dani ?
