Being honest is 35 million justifiable for the potential of a player
A young English striker who scores 24 goals in his first season for his club playing no small part in getting them up in to the Premier league.
He takes his goal scoring form straight in to the premiership with him and has scored 14 goals by January terrorising defences with his physical presence and this remarkable form leads to an England call up and first cap in an international friendly where he comes on as a substitute and impresses. Then comes the transfer window. Do you reckon this lad is really worth 35 million pounds in this day and age? Spoiler: click to showhide
I don't, he's Michael Ricketts.

Great nrews by the way :-
http://www.skysports.com/story/0,195...716282,00.html Obertan happy at United Winger not planning to leave United By Pete O'Rourke - Follow me on Twitter @skysportspeteo Last updated: 1st February 2011 Subscribe to RSS Feed Obertan happy at United Obertan: No transfer request Gabriel Obertan's agent has rejected reports that the player has handed in a transfer request at Manchester United. Reports emerged on Tuesday that French winger Obertan had handed in a written transfer request because he doubted he could make the grade at Old Trafford. The 21-year-old has struggled to make an impact at United since arriving from Bordeaux in the summer of 2009. The France Under 21 international has made just 14 appearances for United this season and he started last weekend's FA Cup clash at Southampton. Obertan's representative, Karim Djaziri, insists the Frenchman has not handed in a transfer request and is happy to stay at Old Trafford. "I have read that Gabriel has handed in a transfer request, but no he has not done this," Djaziri told skysports.com. "He is very happy at Manchester United and he doesn't want to leave. "He is still learning and he knows he is not ready to be a regular starter in the team, but he is working hard to be a member of the first team." |

I watched him at Derby for Newcastle last season, Derby won 3-0 and he was useless, took him 3-4 touches to get anything under control. Less than 12 months ago. He will be a handful, as per Ferguson, Dublin, Crouch and so on, but he won't be much more. I heard the other day that somebody tried to buy him at the start of last season and offered £1m, Newcastle said they could have him for £1.5m, the buying club didn't want to spend that much. |

35m is a lot to pay but who cares. If he turns out to be a good player it makes no difference to them. There will be a lot of pressure on him, which might prove to be his only stumbling block in terms of making the move successful, but the talent is there. Just because he plays for the vermin you are allowed to say what you really think everyone! |
