Who do you think has been the best signing of the summer on the evidence so far?

I pick Chamakh for Arsenal. He has been instrumental in Arsenal picking up points at crucial junctures and has scored winners or late equalizers. He has also added teeth to the final third of Arsenal, so I think he has been the signing of the transfer window this season in EPL. What is your choice of the best signing this summer? Cheers! Ram

I can't single out a certain player. This year with the down-side to English football, I find it very difficult to point out a player who I can claim to be the best signing in my opinion. With teams spending very little, it really falls down to giving more time to tell as when there was many players switching/moving you could notice the disappointments more easily. I can say that Joe Cole as not been the best signing despite being free, he's hardly established himself within the Liverpool team.

In fact, even by Joe Cole's own assessment, his performance ever since joining Liverpool has been his poorest till date. So yes he has not really kicked on at Liverpool. Cheers! Ram

If you are talking about EPL, then my pick is Van Der Vaart. He had performed brilliantly so far in the season. While Chamakh did scored some important goals and give Arsenal another option up-front, he can be frustrating to watch at times.

Yes, Van Der Vaart was another great signing of this season. He has been phenomenal for Tottenham. BTW, Chamakh scored again last night!! Cheers! Ram

I cannot figure it out who the best transfer of this summer was so far. There are too many leagues, too many transfers and I cannot keep an eye on every team and player's performance. Of course Chamakh is a great player who has made a great impact on Arsenal's game, but Ozil is also a very good transfer, Huntelaar for Schalke, Kuranyi for Dynamo Moscow, and others as well. It is very hard to decide, I hope that the best signing this year will be the returning of Toni Kroos to Bayern.

BTW, Chamakh scored again in yesterday's Champions League. Seems to be getting prolific!! I agree Ozil also is a smart buy. Jury though is out on Huntelaar though he might be great for club like Schalke. Cheers! Ram
