    Will be easy to watch - he is slow now - and with Danny murphy in midfield - looks like Blackburn are going for youth

    Murphy will tear the Championship up I suspect - very astute signing. If he has a young gun doing his donkey work then his passing ability will be a cut above anything else in the division

    not so sure he will be able to play 46 games a year and stay injury free. The money he must be on i can only see this as a gamble.

    Murphy, Gomes and Leon Best are three very decent signings.

    Gomez is 36 now signing a two year deal with Blackburn.

    a year older and a much more physical league this year with a 2 games in a week.

    on probably a combined £70k @ week....a massive gamble, they clearly need to go straight back up

    I can see them in league one in the next few years.

    Blackburn will struggle badly this season. 3 players whose main priorities were their signing-on bonuses. I guess now they can put their feet up and relax, eh?

    West Ham's wage bill last season was obscene, but the rewards for them now are great. However, a gung-ho approach to Championship football does not always work, as we can testify.

    Their wage bill will be sky high. If they don't go up this season I can see them running into financial trouble very fast even with Venkys backing them.

    Murphy will struggle as his playing style is more suited to the premier league. His PL teammates compliment his playing style too.
    Plenty of teams would have taken him e.g. Southampton.

    Why the step down to an unsecure relegated team murphs?

    I'm looking forward to the Blackburn fixtures. I hate everything about Blackburn, but the games will be a big test.

    Opened this thinking great indie band Gomez were playing a gig at Ewood!!

    As for Gomes, will never forgive him after I backed him for top scorer at one tournament. He was brilliant in the qualifiers and then the worst striker I had ever seen in the big games!! He'll probably score against us now!! :(
