If Blackburn and Wigan are after him he must be great
To be fair Blackburn have a very good recent record in bringing in little known or under valued players who then go on to double or triple in value
Pederson, Bentley, McCarthy, Santa Cruz off the top of my head.
All signings that if we had made we probably would have been moaning at at the time yet atleast a few have them I have seen memebers of this site begging for since playing for blackburn (at one time or another)
So maybe if the likes of Blackburn and Wigan are after him it is not as damning a valuation of his ability/potential as it would seem on surface value.
Edit: add to this, 2 years ago fans at teams like Man U/Chelsea/Arsenal would have probably turned their nose at if they had been linked to Berbatov (with comments like If Spurs want him.....) yet 2 years on I bet those same fans would have a very differnt valuation.
