At almost £30 million Depay, for me, is overpriced- and plus I reckon he'll struggle to make a big impact this season. That's just my opinion though, so feel free to disagree.

I'm not certain how good Mori can be: he's only back-up for Jags and Stones, and a lot of the people around him (former managers, etc.) reckon he'll struggle with the pace of the EPL. Plus he cost us £9.5m, when the figure that had been going around was only £4-5m.

I don't think he'll be going in January, but if he is giving playing time and performs well then I can easily see one of the bigger clubs trying to buy him. Richards is also a decent buy and I forgot to put him on the Honourable Mentions list, but as for Lescott I'm not convinced- the guy is...

Otamendi's been playing at a high level for a while- with Porto he was solid, and with Valencia last season he caught the eye. At 27 he's also more experienced and is also a first team player for Argentina- meanwhile, Mangala was still in his early 20's when he was bought (for the same fee as...

Completely agree. De Bruyne is a big signing for them but they really did need a quality CB last season alongside Kompany and I reckon that Otamendi will deliver. With him at the back plus their beefed up attack I reckon they can possibly win the league ahead of Chelsea, who's only signing of...

That move hasn't happened yet mate, and I'm not sure it will.

A very good signing for Palace, and even better since he cost them nothing. Palace need someone who can score 15+ goals, and to be honest I can see Sako filling that void. He, Cabaye and Bolasie will be tearing teams apart this season.

As for Cech, he'll make a big difference for Arsenal but the reason he's only at 7 is because there's only so much he can do for them- in the end, if Arsenal's defence has a bad day then even a keeper like Cech will concede goals. He's important, but the most important part of a teams defence...

Agree completely. Was going to have him as 10 instead of Otamendi but changed my mind at the last second. If he gets playing time then he could make the difference for Villa this season, and at just £7m he could turn out to be a very good investment. Again though, he needs to be given playing...

Oh, and I forgot to give Micah Richards an honourable mention- he'll be important for Villa this season and for Sherewood he's a really good signing.

When Moyes was in charge the target was about 4th-6th, but then City got there millions and Tottenham drastically improved (though hopefully they'll slip back and allow us to take advantage). It would be very hard for Martinez to improve on what Moyes did, and so far he's done a good job in my...

It's been a record-breaking transfer window full of crazy signings, but which teams made the best signings? Just to clarify, I've chosen these signing based on how good a player they are/their potential, and also their importance to the team and their value for money. So the likes of Raheem...

Funny coming from someone who supports Villa :bg: No offence but Villa are bottom 4 this year for sure

I'm sorry to say it but the answer is no. We'll definitely improve on last season- I'm thinking we'll finish between 9th and 7th, or maybe 6th if we're very good and Tottenham continue to have a terrible season- but we won't be able to get into the top four yet. We've got a decent side and...

If they really do sign him for £36 million then surely Martial- whether he's decent or bad is irrelevant, that's a crazy amount of money to pay! Benteke may or may not work out, and as for Firminiho I reckon he'll probably emulate what Coutiniho has done. Falcao at Chelsea won't be any good this...
