For all the various transfer foul-ups of the past few years, I can't think of many players we've shifted for below their value - we've generally been pretty good at the sales end of things.
I can't see anyone going for Neto for that sort of money, given his injury record, but I can't see us...
There's good money in the right-wing pandering game, and Barton making that shift in the light of his reputation and negligible managerial talent makes all the sense in the world.
He's just really bad at it, is all- no plausible deniability, no self-styled telling-it-like-it-is common sense...
The hell of it is, provided Marinakis keeps his nose out, I can see that being a really good fit - something where Nuno can really build an identity and an ethos. It's the sort of move he should have been looking to make rather than going to Spurs.
