    Nah, Aston Villa managing to get £20m for Stewart Downing is the greatest sale in football history.

    Mourinho getting more than £80 million for two players he never fancied from the start in Mata and David Luiz is brilliant business for the club when he's more or less replaced them with Willian, Salah and that Zouma? from St Ettienne for probably a £30 million profit.

    Then if he can use the 30M to buy a striker with maybe a little bit extra on top he has done some great business. Loan or sell a few of the back up players and they will be easily with FFP which is a huge boost.

    Don't make David Luiz a scapegoat for what was a terrible team performance.

    David Luiz on his day is one of the best players in the world but he just isn't a defender.

    Without reading the thread fully, didn't most of us agree on this at the time?

    He has been asked to do a job, that he clearly has to ability. But he just isn't interested in doing. For both club or country.

    He does have fantastic ability, but where do you play him? Defensive midfielder?, but clearly doesn't want to defend. You wouldn't play him as a striker, or a winger.

    Serious question.

    How much would you have to be paid, per week, to walk around with a barnet like Dave?

    I would not step one foot out of my house for less than £250 a week.

    I'm not overly happy at that price either.

    Balls, make it £300.
