The irony is that Lukaku leaving is the same as Zlatan's transfer. But nowhere near the effect, either on the pitch or in the aftermath of the sale.
One was a one man team that ended up getting us a world class forward in Eto'o plus the funds for triplete catalyst Sneijder, the other was amplified by everyone else's work and his transfer barely returned us a loan+ deal for Correa despite the high transfer figure.
Ronaldo's transfer is more similar to Hakimi from the recent ones at least for those last 1-2 months.
Cannavaro was a complete asshole but the word traitor should be reserved for people who actually stood for something here. He didn't and all he cared about was playing for Italy. He could have said something but instead he willingly got blackmailed...
Zlatan was always a mercenary. He never hid that.
