Sakho to replace Abidal in a year or two makes a lot of sense.
One of the youth prospects we have will be the one to replace Puyol.
I'd prefer Pato over Mata to replace el Dave in a few seasons, I think, depending on how they both progress. I'd love Aguero if keeps improving but he's not...
So many awful buys...
Alfonso deserves a special mention even though he probably wasn't the costliest.
More recently the money spent on Caceres, Henrique, K9 and Chygrynskiy when you consider the players we have in the B team is/was just criminal.
I don't really think there's been a truly outstanding centre-back so far this season in European football.
Not like Rio Ferdinand was between 2006 and 2008 and Pique/Vidic/Lucio stood out in 2008/09 and last season.
First leg - we have Sporting (away), Athletic (home) and Mallorca (away) around that time.
Second leg - we have Zaragoza (home), Sevilla (away), Getafe (home) around that time.
