    Ozil £42m: wenger can't get the best out of him
    Fellaini £28m: invisible man
    Mata £37m (bit harsh to judge juan on five games I know but a panic buy)
    Rooney £75m for a 28 year old with the body of a 50 year old
    Andy Carroll £15m: bought injured
    kallstromm; loaned inured
    other

    Don't try and hide it in a genuine question, such a blatant dig at Ozil :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    LOL. I've gone for Rooney contract unless it is an elaborate ruse to get £25m out of Jose this summer

    Rooney hasn't left them with any choice really, if he leaves what's it going to look like to potential signings?

    That Cornelius fella for Cardiff surely? £8m, played 8 games scored 0 goals and sold 6 months on for a lot less money.

    Fellaini is definitely up there, astonishing how awful he looked!

    I'd probably go with Fellaini.

    Edit: Although, not really a transfer. AVB's decision not to play Adebayor turned out to be a pretty horrendous one.

    Probably Moyes to Man Utd.
    Actually think Moyes was sold a pup by Fergie who bailed out knowing the piss poor state he had let the squad slip to.
    So Fellaini for mine.

    Plenty of candidates really. Ozil doesn't look interested at the moment but his signing lifted Arsenal and gave them the platform to have a really good season (so far at least). Weirdly I think the money spent on Ozil was worth it more for the impact the signing had than his actual performances.

    The 60 odd million Spurs spent on Saldado and Lamela has to be up there given they were both transfer records for them and both been woeful.

    This season we did great business with AVB when we sacked him...it was last season that we ****ed up by getting him.

    Re Lamela...Definitely the weirdest transfer of the season...£30m with add ons for a player that never plays <yikes>

    worst one is Fellanni imo...£27m and has not done a single thing right ... weird cos he was fantastic at Everton so didn't need to adjust to the premier league

    Van Wolfswinkel must be up there. 1 goal in 17 appearances for £12mil.

    He wasn't bad, he was just getting good until he headbutted a teammate! We didn't give him a regular run of games even though Lambert's looked quite average this season. We'll make our money back for him though in the Summer when Juventus buy him.

    Is Terry likely to start on Saturday (for my Fantasy Football team)?

    For the flop of the season, Fellaini probably as even before he was sold, Man Utd fans didn't seem very happy - a clear panic buy. Honoirable mentions to Lamela who was a huge rip off and Soldado who can only score penalties.

    Kallstromm for sheer comedy and showing how badly run football clubs are
