That's just a rumour and Wigan have offered about £8.5m for Andy Johnson, he's not that great.
but english players are always more expensive, more or less anyone near our national squad is £10m at least so not really a fair comparison |

I'm not sure that English players really tend to be more expensive. Rooney was a total bargain at just £20m, Owen to Real Madrid for £8m was similarily cheap and if Gerrard had moved last year it would've been for around £30m which seems very cheap for one of the world's best midfielders
There's been plenty of overpriced foreign players, eg. £28m for Veron and Robinho who has done nothing to justify his price of nearly £20m yet.
There is the odd one though, Heskey was never worth £15m, Wright-Phillips was overpriced and maybe Andy Johnson soon.

You could certainly argue that Drogba and Essien were overpriced but if Chelsea bid for a player that instantly puts their value up.

Rooney was nearer £28m wasnt it?? Anelka moved to Arsenal the same sort of age as Rooney and cost 500k

The Rooney fee was complex with only about £11m initially and then more a year later and then more if Man United won the champions league or premiership, the total fee will probably end up at around £25m but that is very cheap.
Anelka isn't in the same class as Rooney, Real Madrid paid £22m for him which was ridiculously overpriced.
