To achieve the next level of success, the manager convinces the board that their team needs that kind of player. The player who is believed to bring instant success for the team was given by the board a check of several millions. After two or three months, this player hasn't shown yet his expected skills because playing to another team or in a different league is not easy, who became famous and impress the crowd after leaving his team? Sergio Aguero made his long desired move to England from Athletico Madrid, but to Manchester City and not Chelsea who he had been linked with for several seasons. High expectations both from the club management and its fans are the things a famous player always carry around his shoulders.

Sergio, who was assigned by the team to deliver goals, came in with a bang and faithfully do his task. The Manchester City's thirteen goals this season was courtesy of this man, so the 35m spent on him didn't go to waste. Cesc Fabregas returned to his place in Barcelona and left Arsenal. Many fans and betters watched with abated breath as he had to find his niche in such a highly ranked team. The million dollar question was whether he could side-line the masters in Camp Nou.

The answer came quickly when he scored many goals and proved himself to be more than able to replace Andres Iniesta after an injury earlier. The young man scored like he was playing football all his life! When Manchester City wanted to replace the tall, African striker, Emmanuel Adebeyor, Harry Redknapp snapped him up on loan. Adebeyor had played against rivals Arsenal and in the last season, his goals against Tottenham had crushed their hopes in the Champions league, making this move controversial. The striker left no choice but to put himself up by boasting his 8 goals in the game.

He then remembered how he got a nomination for Africa's best player way back the years. Opting against a move to Liverpool. Phil Jones left Blackburn and moved to Trafford for 16.5 million. The youngster wouldn't be deterred by an uphill task of getting a regular starting shirt in Manchester United. He started his games mostly in either being the centre back or the defensive midfield position. The hearts of most united supporters was won by Jones when he had proved that he was a good player when the United defines looked shaky sometimes.

An England cap was built to draw extraordinary and promising youth of this season. The story would never be complete without naming Demba Ba, a 25 year old striker in Senegal. The managers were a little bit suspicious on signing for Demba Ba, in replacement for West ham being downgraded, but convinced with his 11 goals letting him in for Newcastle. Demba Ba's success story is unlikely to end half way into the season as he is currently the most wanted player to have in Europe. It is more likely that he will score more and win more games for Newcastle United.
