There is no shadow of a doubt that the Premier League is the best football league in the world when it comes to the combination of media coverage and the quality of play shown by the top-flight clubs simply prove that they deserve all of the attention they are getting.
With that being said, it will be understood that every transfer decision a Premier League club makes immediately gets converted to hot football news that the British and global audience consumes without reservations. Every sale and purchase they make gets analysed and thoroughly inspected by every fan and pundit.
The many SBOBET tips that we provide through the blog also arise from thorough analysis of club structure and form, so it’s never a bad idea to check out the transfers made by the clubs this season and deem which side made the best business in the transfer market.
Even though you may think that your team did fantastic business this summer, the physical limitations of this piece cannot allow every player to be included. This article will list the most impressive transfers in this humble writer’s eyes.
Jack Wilshere, Free Transfer to West Ham United
This is easily the most brilliant move done so far in the Premier League if economic savvy is your most important criterion in a transfer. Hammers fans are understandably delighted when they saw the former England international’s name next to the “West Ham updates” tag.
Jack Wilshere is a quality midfielder in a rather disappointing Arsenal side that saw Arsene Wenger walk away from the club in disappointment. Disruptive injuries that hit him in rapid succession derailed what should have been a fantastic, lifelong career with the Gunners. affecting his performance.
While I understand that there is a breadth of superb midfield options that Wenger could have used ahead of Wilshere, but he could have provided a bit of stability in Wenger’s weird 3-4-3 last season if he was only given a chance.
He showed that he is slowly recovering his old form in his year-long loan with Bournemouth and his final year at the Emirates. There is no question that he will be used plenty of times at the London Stadium.
A player of Wilshere’s quality will definitely be used at the London Stadium, and new Hammers boss Manuel Pellegrini is confident that he will change the team’s mentality for the better. If the former Man City boss’ prediction comes true, then the Hammers got the steal of the window.
Alisson, £56.25M Transfer to Liverpool
Liverpool’s need for a consistent man that can make high-quality saves at the drop of the hat was made evident when Loris Karius saw a dip in his form after a disastrous Champions League final against 2018 champions Real Madrid.
Jurgen Klopp wasted little time to find a reliable pair of hands and quickly found and bought his man in Brazil international Alisson. The 25-year-old had a strong season with Roma, gaining an average grade of 6.99 in 37 Serie A appearances.
While some would question his goalkeeping capabilities after Brazil’s disappointing exit at the 2018 World Cup, it is important to remember that the team all in all failed to back him up with more consistent attacks to allow him some breathing room on the defensive end.
He will be set to battle Karius, who performed well in the Premier League, for the starting keeper position. If everything goes well, Klopp will enjoy having two quality players ready to stop on the world’s best attackers in every tournament they participate in.
Jorginho, £51.30M Transfer to Chelsea
Chelsea are trying to transform themselves into champions once again after a disappointing season under Antonio Conte. New boss Maurizio Sarri understands that surviving in such a tough environment — one where the defending champions reinforced themselves yet again with another quality winger — from the get-go is extremely important.
This is why Italian midfielder Jorginho’s choice to move to Stamford Bridge over the Etihad is a coup for the Blues. Not only will he be able to help the players adapt to the ways of the former Napoli boss, his quality passes from the midfield will be a great help to Eden Hazard.
Sarri’s Napoli used a 4-3-3, where the full-backs were expected to provide the necessary width. Jorginho was in the middle of the formation, supplying accurate passes to a prolific final third of Dries Mertens, Lorenzo Insigne and Jose Callejon.
Jorginho will likely work together with N’Golo Kante to create a deadly space in the midfield for the Blues. The thought of Kante snatching the ball to him and Jorginho giving the ball to Hazard from deep should send a lot of Chelsea fans to excited palpitations.
Jorginho, Alisson and Wilshere are only three of the biggest names to make a splash in the 2018 summer transfer window. The market is still weeks away from closing, so we might see more exciting transactions happen within the following weeks.
In the meantime, let us applaud these clubs for the very smart business they made in an effort to secure the Premier League crown.
