For me it's Pennant. I remember us signing this 15 year old for 2m and was so sure he would be a beast for us. Let's not forget this is before the internet (days of refreshing tele text to get football news ). Obviously these days a quick youtube makes us all experts on every player in the world but the hype around Pennant as a kid was crazy.
So what signing disappointed you the most?

I remember Jeff Blockley, Fred. I think he even got an England cap somehow.

he bloody wasn't!
game that said it all to me was an FA cup tie against Cardiff in his last season, was a perfect opportunty for Joey to impress and he fluffed it
1-1 at half time, Joey playing like he'd never even seen a football in his life the much maligned Kalou came on for him and we went on to the game 4-1!
knew after that his Chelse career was done

Checked up, Alf Ramsey did cap him for England. Once was enough as he won no more !!
