Something dodgy about the Bebe one, surely.

Ali Dia is comedy. I suggest listening to Le Tissier on the Quickly Kevin podcast - great fun.

There have been way worse than what Wahl listed but I voted for Keita. For the return on what was spent on him he is easily the worst there

Kepa is easily the worst there. Most expensive goalkeeper in the world and last season produced the worst season of any goalkeeper in PL history.

Do you remember when that journalist Ollie Holt predicted Charlie Adam would be a better signing than Sergio Aguero?

Brilliant stuff.

Think he blocks anyone on Twitter who reminds him about it.

Kepa is a shiiit signing but he has at least kept himself fit and has had a handful of decent games

We are promised an Iniesta/Kante hybrid when Keita came to the PL. He’s been injured for most of his time here and when he has played he’s been woeful

Aquaman was the most costly. Brought in to replace Alonso and never got close. The fall in competitiveness from Liverpool was quite severe and they failed to qualify for the CL for a while after Alonso left.

.......

There was if the person that recommended him to SAF got a back hander from the selling club. I think it was Queroz.

I had forgot about him. He was another that got bigged up beyond belief by the dips before any of them had seen him play.

They did the same with Downing. He became better than Giggsy overnight.

Balotelli to Liverpool?

posted on 2/9/20

I'd put Ndombele in that list!

Never have I seen a player not willing to put in some effort to settle in and get used to the pace, like this guy!
Honestly he's got to be one of the worst signings just because he is one of the most talented players signed who couldn't motivate himself!

Andy Carroll to the Mousers, £35m at the time was a huge fee

Has to be up there. Worst attitude of a player I have ever seen at the club and I include Diouf in that. Had all the talent in the world but preferred to adopt an everybody is out to get me attitude and fight everybody instead. Set the club back massively when he was brought in to replace Suarez, seemingly against the wishes of the manager.

Different category obviously, but Ozil's contract extension has to be one of the biggest wastes of money in PL history.

loldado is up there

Not that I don't agree with it, but it's strange that the OP decided to include Sanchez's transfer to Man Utd.

What a waste of a career. He was very talented as a kid. I used to watch a lot of Italian footy when he was coming through at Inter and he looked like a special talent.

Het got sumin half right i guess

Kepa n mustafi are by far the worst i remember recently. For the prices theyve looked absolutely pathetic.

Di Maria was awful too, attitude too. But atleast they got 40m of the 60m bk.
