The most underated player in the Premierleague...

How much did Mark Hughes value RSC at though? anyone know roughly how much Blackburn turned down?

I think Mark Hughes, and the Blaqckburn board are more qualified than the rest of us at judging how good the player is, other than those you've gotta go back to Bayern...

For a club Blackburn to be able to refuse that money, shows how much he is worth to the club.

For me he is underated, definetly one of the bargains of the premiership era.
If he was not hampered by injuries this season i honestly think he would be up there in the goal scoring charts.

It's only when he joins one of the bigger clubs, and when he is given more chances, then a lot of people will look back and say they underated him.

Im just hoping by that time his little brother will be able to fill his boots at Blackburn

He was with a bigger club and he wasn't good enough. He's much better suited as a big fish in a small pond.

If memory serves me correct, Andy Johnson finished second top goal scorer in the 03/04 season, are you saying he was worth upwards of 20m because of that?
If Santa Cruz can score another truckload of goals in next two seasons and prove he is a consisent top class scorer in the PL then i'd value him maybee at 25m, right now its a joke tbh to class him as a 25m striker.

His is perfectly suited to the English game, a classic Centre Forward and he will score plenty of goals. He just ended United's clean sheet record and made Ferdinand look like a fool while scoring that goal.

But again you see, here you are saying that he will be worth it if he keeps scoring the goals, so at this moment in time you are underrating him. I know already how good he is and thats 25 millions pounds worth of talent at the very minimum.

Lol @ Xavi, if he was at Man City now you would be raving about him, the fact that the man has a bit more respect for his employers than Berbatov had should make him more valuable. Imo he is a far better player than Berbatov.

I would strongly strongly disagree with that, but maybe I'm biased

Darren Bent

Daniel Cousin

Danny Murphy

Brad Friedel - best keeper in the Prem

Michael Owen - still absolute class when fit

agree on Murphy - never really noticed him much when he was with Liverpool, but was generally superb for Charlton and is the main man at Fulham.

11 pages and no Scott Parker? Great midfielder with a fantastic work ethic who's good on the ball, strong at breaking up play and has the eye for a killer pass. I reckon he'd be great at somewhere like Arsenal.

Actually I just had a quick scan of the thread and you're the third poster to nominate Parker. I'll be the fourth -- Parker has been West Ham's best player pretty much every game this season. WHU would be in the relegation zone without him (and may be in it soon anyway with the lack of cutting edge up front).

I remember in 1 game he was in with newcastle he got his tooth knocked out and kept on playing, I had a great amount of respect for him after that.

As a pool fan id say

But Darren Fletcher outside us. If they had paid 5-6 mill for him...

Was just going to say Scott Parker myself. Think he's absolutely class. Not sure if James Milner is getting all the credit he deserves this season either. Very solid player.
