PREMIER LEAGUE TRANSFER BETTING
The Premier League action is kicking off this Saturday, but you know they'll be just as much going on in the boardrooms and offices of several clubs as they try to shore up reinforcements for the second half of the season. The Transfer Window slams shut on Saturday at midnight GMT and many football punters are having a go on which players are moving where. Personally, I find that one of the best markets out there is Paddy Power's Transfer Betting Special. With cash-rich Man City looking to be in the hunt for several players, it could definitely be them and that's where the bookmakers seem to think it's going to go as City are backed at 6/1. Spurs come in just behind at 13/2 while the Hull City tigers come in at 10/1. Tony Adams Portsmouth (in dire need of midfield options) are currently sitting at 11/1.If you really want my opinion on the matter, I'm confident that Andre Arshavin will sign at the deadline for Arsenal. The saga has simply dragged on too long and you know that his team are resigned to him leaving at this point and why risk him getting injured for the second half of the season and only being worth half as much. I'm confident that he will be announced minutes before midnight, in a similar manner to the conclusion of the Berbatov saga in the previous transfer window. Arsenal are listed at 14/1. This bet applies to the last official transfer announced by Sky Sports News prior to 5pm Monday 2nd Feb Any signings announced on Sky Sports News after 5pm Monday 2nd Feb will not count, Loan signings do not count.Man City: 6/1Tottenham: 13/2Hull: 10/1Pompey: 11/1Wigan: 12/1Newcastle: 12/1Arsenal: 14/1Everton: 16/1West Ham: 16/1Bolton: 16/1Stoke: 16/1West Brom: 16/1Villa: 16/1Blackburn: 16/1Fulham: 16/1Sunderland: 16/1Middlesborough: 16/1Chelsea: 20/1Liverpool: 25/1Manchester United: 33/1
