Exception to the rule, he'd favour it over the premiership though. When was the last time a premiership club signed a world star? I'd like to say Torres but he wasn't in the same class as he is now if you get my point.
Surely that's a compliment to the league?
We seem to consistently buy players before they are world stars, then develop them into world stars and make big profits.
Players like Essien, Torres, Mascherano etc., weren't exactly world stars when they came here, but they'd all command £30m+ transfer fees.
