What am I missing here?
7m for a bloke who cant get in Norwich's team ahead of Cameron Jerome, has scored 1 goal yet is moving back to Bournemouth for this ridiculous fee.
I knew football had gone mad but this is surely ridiculous even by premier league standards.
Edit - apologies. Just seen this mentioned on the transfer thread but it is so ridiculous it perhaps merits a separate discussion on its own.

With the injuries (thanks big phil  ) they have I am not surprised they are throwing the kitchen sink at staying up. The money is lucrative if they can just stay up. |

They've got Callum Wilson to return as well, good luck keeping two prospects in him and Benik Afobe content, on top of having Glenn Murray, Lee Tomlin, Yann Kermorgant and now Lewis Grabban all fighting for a maximum of two places.

Absolutely ridiculous price for him and Norwich must be laughing all the way to the bank.Average footballers going for stupid money and I include Afobe in that also.Our club must take note of the prices these clubs are getting for players like this and start valuing them at the correct prices.

Knowing Stoke we would give the cherries a deal if they wanted a player, let alone RAISE the price!

Agree with Grabban. Disagree with Afobe. He is a good player from a good academy. He'll do well I reckon. |

Anyone still think the ever so astute Mr Peace at West Brazil would even bother his arris to open an email from us saying "£15m for Berahino" in the subject line?

Are we any closer to establishing just what the hell he's done to justify this 7m (8m in some reports) transfer fee?

Perhaps you can also admire the commercial acumen of the selling club to get those fees for average players rather than below their value well done to chief exec at Norwich and wolves...errm maybe delete wolves  |
