Anton Ferdinand's inevitable move away from West Ham United is almost complete, with perennial fringe purchasers Sunderland his likely destination. I won't comment too much on the subject, but I am surprised at the value being placed on Ferdinand's head. He has never struck me as anything more than a 'decent' centre-back. Transfer values are all relative, and so here is a list of recent transfers of Premier League centre-backs. Decide for yourself whether £8m for Anton Ferdinand seems reasonable...Carlos Cuellar Glasgow Rangers to Aston Villa, £7.8m
Nemandja Vidic Spartak Moscow to Manchester United, £7.2m
Jonathan Woodgate Middlesbrough to Tottenham Hotspur, £7m
Martin Skrtel Zenith St. Petersburg to Liverpool, £6.5m
Matthew Upson Birmingham City to West Ham United, £6m
Younes Kaboul Tottenham Hotspur to Portsmouth, £5m
