    i know incredible.

    Nearly as bad as jack chodewell for 12m and paying him to be on your injury list. Whichever muggins did that, and gave him guaranteed money in the championship should be hung and quartered

    Kagawa is another one, I remember getting excited when we got him, He didn’t do nothing much.

    I remember when we signed Powell, He was one of the best young players in the lower leagues, He scored once for us, Ironically against Wigan.

    these are all the CMs that went during the transfer window for less than what we paid for our CMs that spunked 40m on bakayoko (at least he had rave reviews) and ****ing drinkwater:

    Tollisso
    Matuidi
    Tielemans
    Kessie
    Kongdogbia

    Christ almighty!

    We've bought some **** at Liverpool too. Many should simply have never been allowed within 10 miles of the club - even to visit Goodison. Such as:

    Jan Kromkamp
    Salif Diao
    Aspas
    Bruno Cheyrou
    Paul Konchesky <laugh>

    And the expensive ones like:

    Andy Carroll £35 mill
    Stuart Downing £20 mill
    Benteke £32 mill
    Ballotelli £16 odd million
    Aqualung at £17 million

    In fact Aquilani was really really disappointing.

    Good player that just never worked out.

    If there was any geordie ****wits on here, we could laugh at their purchase of Michael Owen. He had their pants down big time<laugh>

    £19m (record signing) on a striker in January that a new manager can't even find a place on the bench for and he is perfectly fit!.

    If we swap Pogba for Kroos this summer it'll be the best transfer we've done since Fergie retired.

    Di Maria was the worst in our history, an utter ****house of a player but still infinitely better than Bakayoko <laugh>

    Pogba getting hooked in less than an hour vs WBA was a statement from Jose.

    He's a lazy ****.

    Epitome of everything I don't like in a modern footballer.

    Having said that under the correct manager he can flourish (if he can be arsed).

    Morgan Schneiderlin £25m - looked a decent buy for half a season, but has stunk the place out this one, famously got booed on recently, the lazy, half arsed, cheese eating, surrender monkey. Absolute ****ing ****house

    I didn't think he was given a chance at Utd and thought he'd be good for you, I was very wrong.

    Evertonians will accept a trier who’s a bit ****, but they can easily spot a shirker, and they’ll always let them know.

    We were playing Palace and 3-0 up and Fat Sam brought him on and he was roundly booed, it was quite funny tbf
