Babel will cost Liverpool £13.5m

Bellamy to west ham for £7.5m

Surprised to see bellamy go for that much again, surely dave nugent would have been a much better purchase

First of all, he's 22 according to the Nigerian FA. So take that with a grain of salt. They have a somewhat dubious history of reporting.

Secondly, I am not saying he sucks or would be a terrible signing. I just don't expect him to suddenly turning into an elite finisher and realize all his potential. I do not claim to have a crystal ball and can predict with 100% certainty that he won't improve. I only think that most peoples' perceptions of him are more in line of what he could be rather than what he is.

heh, I agree with the age dubiosness.

Anyways, of course peoples perceptions are of what he can be. Same with nearly every player who is 20-23. I think he has the pace, which can't be coached. All he needs to do is work on finishing, which can be.

This is a good point but I remain skeptical. We shall see. I invite you to bump this in January after Martins nets 20 in the fist half. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

hopefully for Arsenal!

Honestly, how much better is Rooney than Martins?
