Manchester City were very publicly snubbed by Kaka, missed the boat on Lassana Diarra and have been quoted exorbitant prices that they aren't willing to pay for Valencia duo David Villa & Silva. The sheiks will no doubt be delighted however that City boss Mark Hughes did manage to snare his Welsh compatriot, the meek and mild mannered Craig Bellamy. Is £14 million for the fiery nomadic hitman good value? You be the judge.
Bellamy started his career at Norwich where he showed much promise amid several spells in the treatment room, injury curtailing him to just 84 appearances in 4 seasons. His 32 goals for the Canaries seemed a good enough return for Coventry boss Gordon Strachan, who signed him for £6.5 million.
