Flamini -- especially at that price -- for a truly world class player such as Ibra? I'd do it in a heartbeat. Flamini wouldn't be that hard to replace. Ibras don't come along very often.

It could be his year ... with a coach having faith in him, wanting to give him the keys of the midfield, I don't think it's the right time to sell him.
It's a huge mistake when we know we could have sold Gattuso earlier this summer (of course, not for the same kind of amount).
Economically, it's a good move: a free player sold 15M, but tell me who we could buy who could be as good as him without spending too much money ? I don't see any player right now.
