Me and Berbinandez were talking on my ''Antonio Valencia goal - cross or shot ?'' thread and we got talking about the worse team we've had in the league i mentioned 03/04 because we were in transition at the time because we sold David Beckham to Real Madrid for £25 million pounds and we let Nicky Butt go to Newcastle in the january transfer window. Of course we Had signed Cristiano Ronaldo from Sporting Lisbon for £13.24 million pounds which at the time was a lot of money at the time, and we signed Tim Howard as well. We signed Louis Saha from Fulham for £12 million pounds in the same month, although we won the Fa cup that season, we were off the pace in the league when Arsenal went unbeaten throughout the season. 05/06 team is intresting, we signed Wayne Rooney from Everton for £28 million the year before, we also signed Gabriel Henize from PSG, Alan Smith from leeds, and Liam Miller on a free transfer, in the summer of 05 we signed Edwin Van Der Sar from Fulham for £2 million pounds and has to go down as oneof the masanger's greatest signings. That year we went out of the champions league, we finished bottom of the group, out of the fa cup after losing to Liverpool but we won the Carling cup after beating Wigan 4-0 that trophy has proved vital to our history.
Yeah, i remember we were top of the after christmas, shame him and Mickael SIlvestre decleoped a nice defensive partnership.
