Summer transfer window review – Assessing the transfer window activity: English Premier League (Part 2)
After elaborating on the likes of Arsenal, Blackburn http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Rovers-c40385 and Aston Villa in the first part of this featured series on the transfer activity in the summer transfer window, it is time to take a look at the rest of the teams in
the English Premier League and their endeavours in the summer transfer window up till now...
Bolton Wanderers
Bolton haven’t done a whole lot of business in the present summer transfer window. The Wanderers ended the 2010-2011 Premier League season at a low as they lost in the F.A Cup semi-finals to Stoke City of all teams and thus missed
out on their big day at the Wembley stadium. Nonetheless, Owen Coyle has reformed Bolton into a different footballing outfit altogether. Coyle has instilled a sense of discipline and offensive football at the Lancashire club but now he needs some reinforcements
to get them to the next level in the English Premier League.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Daniel-Sturridge-c10076 is set to stay at Chelsea after having a short loan spell at the Reebok Stadium last season. Thus Bolton need a striker and David Ngog is being touted
up as a possible transfer target. At the back, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 but Bolton are holding out for a bigger offer at the moment.
Chelsea
After finishing 2nd in the English Premier League season of 2010-2011 and that too level on points with Manchester City, Chelsea need investment in the summer transfer window to make themselves competitive once again
and more importantly to challenge the likes of Manchester United for the league title once again. Chelsea parted ways with Carlo Ancelloti right after the Premier League season came to a close and the Italian manager has been replaced with Andre Villas Boas
at Stamford Bridge.
Villas Boas is seen as a keen tactician but he is currently finding his feet at London as he has confirmed that he will be looking to evolve the club slowly rather than bringing in revolutionary changes. Drogba is set to sign a
one year extension but Essien has been ruled out with a knee injury for six months. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786’s shopping list but Tottenham are reluctant to let go of their playmaker for the time being.
Everton
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jack-Rodwell-c17462, thus Everton will be happy with what they’ve got. However Yakubu has left the Merseyside minnows and now Moyes finds himself in a precarious
scenario which means that he has a lack of funds at his disposal. Goodison Park can surely use another striker as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Everton-c13019 suffered last season due to the lack of depth in their offensive department.
Luis Saha’s fitness issues mean that he is not dependable and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Tim-Cahill-c35085 has been struck down with his own injury problems of late. Nicklas Bendtner’s name is being thrown around but the overconfident Dane might not be welcome
at Goodison Park with his attitude problems.
