After a very quite three weeks and six days of January transfer window on 31st January Premier League clubs open their pockets and splash a lot of cash. English giants Chelsea break all transfer records after they grab Fernando Torres from Liverpool in £50m. Before this exclusive signing Manchester City holds record of most expensive signing worth £32.5m when they signs Robinho from Real Madrid.
Chelsea spends around £75m on deadline day for Spanish striker Fernando Torres and Brazilian defender David Luiz. Chelsea had their worst run ever in the Premier league over last 10 years. They had six games misery without a win. Due to such winless streak Chelsea are now 9 points behind their worst rivals and Premier League title contenders Manchester United. And deadline day signings show they are desperate to win trophies this season. Remember Chelsea had a massive double last season under their new Italian manager.
Not only Chelsea, Liverpool also splash around £55m on the deadline in order to sign Andy Carroll and Luis Suarez. They lost one brilliant striker but signs two young guns.After their worst run since 1960 Liverpool are at the seventh spot in the Premier League and are improving day by day under their newly discovered manager. And if they keep on playing with this momentum they still have very good chance to reclaim Champions League spot.
The competition at the top is increasing day by in Premier league where every team have a very competent squad and is capable of beating each other. English Premier league history is is not favorable for the expensive signings during the last ten years, Clubs like Chelsea, Bolton, Everton, Manchester City had massive losses with the signings of Shevchenko, Elmander, Yakubu and Robinho respectively and lot more. These players were failed to adjust themselves in the English conditions and style of playing football. which requires more strength and stamina then any other league in the world.
