I 2nd that Gaetan. If Moratti blows this (getting Samuel) then I'm gonna be pissed off. I'm absolutely shocked that Real are willing to give up both Solari and Samuel, and to be honest a chance like this just doesn't come around every day. Even better they are willing to loan him out and then let us buy him next season. That's all to perfect.

Maybe I'm dreaming because it's to good to be true. Hopefully things don't turn into a nightmare with Moratti and co. screwing up.

Samuel is a must for our defence, but I cannot help remembering the blunder we did last year on the transfer market (I mean Gobbivarro) so everytime I hear some rumours about us buying/selling someone I get cold chills up my spine.
And Chivu is just too injury prone (altough I heard that he wants to move away from Roma because of their crappy physios), but nonetheless a very talented defender.

For us to get Samuel, Moratti will to pay for him is not sufficient, I'm afraid.

We also need:

1) Samuel to WANT to join us and not staying in Madrid, or move to Juve/Milan/Chelsea.

2) Samuel being reasonable about contract/wages.

3) Real being willing to sell him for a reasonable price.

It's not just a question of Moratti pushing a button, or giving up going on holiday to save some money. It's not that freakin simple!!!

samuel's fading... chivu closer??

Inter Milan are going cold on the idea of signing Real Madrid defender Walter Samuel on-loan.

Real's asking price of £16 million at the end of the 12-month deal is too steep for Inter, as is Samuel's £3.5 million salary. Inter supremo Massimo Moratti is also upset with Real's insistence they cough up a fee to take Samuel on a temporary basis for the new season.

Moratti is now reviving his bid for AS Roma defender Cristian Chivu. The Romania international has told close friends he wants a move to Inter and Moratti is ready to meet Roma's £10 million asking price.

If that's true, then it's ridiculous and disgusting :yuck:

Samuel fits us 100x more than Chivu. I wanted Chivu but now that Samuel is available, I don't want Chivu near the Meazza. He is good and all, but is too injury prone and isn't exactly the tall CD that we want.

I don't believe the rumor though, Samuel is worth more than $16M, and Moratti realizes that. Real paid around $25M to get him last year, and we will be naive to think his value would drop $10M in one year.

If Chivu wants to come as an LB, then I guess it's all right, but I don't want him to come as the promised CD.

We will be making the same mistake, get Cannavaro, Adani, Miha, Burdisso etc. etc. instead of settling for one class CD.

Yeah. Chivu also great CB. but if we getting Samuel and Chivu both great defenders? so Samuel on LB? no way... 3-back? I hate 3-back. :fero:

However I'm happy Moratti getting Chivu or Samuel. Chivu and Samuel both? superhappy. dreams come true :happy:

I believe official news in today. Samuel+Solari!! :star:

Guys, what's this talk of Samuel being our new tall defender?

He's about 180cm's tall, if not a cm shorter.

Take a look at some of the stars he could be up against if joining us, stars like Zlatan,Trezeguet, Gilardino, Crespo, Toni, Lucarelli...

They're all way taller than him, you'll see that if Samuel ends up facing them every week.

Height doesn't really matter imo, but c'mon, we can't say we're buying a TALL defender.

that's true, yet some people think Chivu would be worse than Samuel because he's shorter... yet Chivu is 184cm if I'm not wrong.

I'd still prefer Samuel, he's a solid defender, and if Mancini can make Materazzi-Mihajlovic tight at the back (no goals conceded for 630 minutes at the end of season) then imagine what he can do with Samuel-Cordoba!

Real Madrid offcial site- Samuel 184cm.

AS Roma official site - Chivu 183cm. (www.gazzetta.it also)

Not shorter.

Juve 0 - 1 Inter at Delle Alpi. Miha(183cm)-Cordoba(176cm) no problem air against Zlatan and Zalayeta. even Mihajlovic not good jumper.

Height? so Cannavaro(174cm)-Thuram(182cm) why didn't had air problem? Chivu and Samuel more good jumper/air than 04-05 season Thuram. of course Thuram also good jumper.

Example.. Gobbi against B.Munchen.. Makaay(187cm) and Pizarro(184cm) no chance air against Cannavaro-Thuram. even Miha-cordoba also never had air problem against taller strikers. problem is set-piece situation.

Chivu/Samuel-Cordoba is really great. maybe best. really not need that height worry. worry is Moratti getting Chivu/Samuel or not and if will coming? it''s defensive line organizing ability problem. because Samuel/Chivu-Cordoba is new combi.

Chivu, 183 cm is a big lie. He's not over 180. He's about 1.75-76. A couple of cm's taller than Cordoba.

Samuel being 3-4cm's taller than Chivu.

Unless you've met him, I don't think you're qualified to say how tall he is.

Hehe, I have actually seen him, when Romania was here in Norway.

I'm pretty sure that Chivu is not over 1.80.
