For £3.3 million i think Blackburn has aquired a bargain, Roque Santa Cruz is a good player and he is young at only 25-years-old, also take into account that he has amassed 46 caps for the Paraguayan national side, scoring 16 goals in the process.

I think as soon as Luca Toni and Miroslav Klose joined Bayern, Santa Cruz knew he was below the pecking order and it’s interesting to note that he was linked to a number of clubs around Europe, including Real Zaragoza but in the end opted to partner Benni Mccarthy at Blackburn.
