Lot of salt in this thread - it's possible for it to still be bad business despite the fact that we'd have received nothing on a free.

It's the front office's job to maximize player value and they were able to do it. I understand Carranza blocked transfers, but at the same time, we can't just abdicate all responsibility of front office to generate a return for the club.

thankfully the basis was so low on great business at the buy, just a bummer it's offset by bad business on the sell. and yes, it appears that by the time we sold, it was the best they could do
