Boring part II

I continue my survey on the EPL with which transfers i deem to be too expensive for the player bought. I think this is rather insulting to be honest but i guess everyone is entitled to their own opinion. You probably wont read this on official websites, due to its overly critical nature but most forums have such arguments anyway and could prove interesting as games come and go.
1. Nigel Reo-Coker (8.5m, West Ham to Villa) -- Frankly i feel Reo-Coker is better than most ppl make him out to be. He tackles well and has reasonable pace and positioning. Has stamina to help out in most attacks as well. However, for 8.5m, its just too costly. There is this crazy idea now that clubs must pay more for young players because they have potential, but i just dont feel Reo-Coker will justify his price tag playing as a defensive midfielder. Having said that, i think he is better than Villa's current captain George Boateng and in that sense is maybe just a tad overpriced.
2. Craig Bellamy (Liverpool to West Ham 7.5m) -- Liverpool bought him from Blackburn last season for 6m. And after only 7 goals in 27 starts, Bellamy is actually sold for a profit?! I just find this unbelievable. Has bags of pace but is getting older and has never really been a prolific goal scorer. West Ham just seem to be involved with crazy amounts of cash changing hands this summer. If they do lose Tevez they must hope that Bellamy can score a lot more than his record 13 league goals to repay their 7.5m.
3. Darren Bent (Charlton to Tottenham 16.5m) -- It pains me to know that my beloved club are throwing money away but i guess honesty is a virtue. HAHA. I dont think Bent is a classy enough striker to be worth in excess of 10m. He has good scoring instincts, but is too straightforward sometimes as a striker to trouble more accomplished defences. Furthermore, with other good strikers at Spurs, he wont play enough games to be able to show that he wasnt a waste of money.
With 4 more weeks till the transfer window closes, i think there will be a lot more signings of interest and i will see if i can come up with a top 10. For now, i hope this has bored you enough to warrant me stopping here.
