    Which player in the last 5 years that we have signed has been the best value for money? Not best player.

    Bent did very well for us but at 16 million was not particularly a bargain.

    We have to have bought the player. Not a loan.

    Thoughts....

    Maybe the now Liverpool keeper, pretty much kept us up and then we sold for a massive profit!

    Think mine would be Mig

    We'd most likely be in the championship right now were it not for him

    Henderson cost nothing and we sold him for a tidy profit

    Mignolet for what he did and his sell on price/profit. Bent if we got the full 24m, which I doubt we did.

    I'm still going to say Bent. Came in for £16m scored goals tor us then left for >£20m. So loads of goals and a nett profit. Value for me

    Mig for me.

    But pure profit, it has to be Henderson.


    The player who should have had this thread sewn up (see what i did there?), should have been Sess, sadly he was to hot and cold.

    Gotta be Mig ain't it?

    Kept us up, 600% profit, and replaced by an arguably better keeper for 1/5 off his sale value.

    Mig just keeps giving ;)

    Henderson was home grown. So that is the best value but I wanted players we have signed.

    What was the return we got for Gyan?

    We rarely seem to sign players that go on to bigger and better things?
