I went when it opened and I spent ages in there but was a bit disappointed that the top 2 floors were all about getting extra money out of you

It included Sol Campbell and Lescott..

I'll give you that. I like the dedication. Puyol is right behind Xavi apparently. But that's another Barca player. Chiellini just made his 300th with Juve which is nice.

Roma are a decently big club in Italy and aren't Totti and De Rossi Roman as well? One could understand staying at a boyhood club and not moving, especially if they get some success.

They are both Romans but Totti is the only one of them to have won the league and that was 13 years ago. They have shown flashes of being close to repeating (like this season!) but they aren't really at the level of Juve, Inter and Milan, all of whom would have taken either of them during their careers.

There was a time when Xavi was booed in the Camp Nou for being boring with his tikitaka and the club was considering selling him and he had a bunch of offers, hell he wasn't even a guaranteed starter under Rijkaard...
