    There has been much talk this morning about Paul Pogba's failings at Manchester United and whether its his, or Jose's, fault.

    So I was thinking, which player or players purchased by your club have most disapointed you?

    For me I remember being quite excited by Fernando Morientes coming to us and he ended up with 12 goals in 60 games in all competitions!

    Most disappointing in the sense I thought the player was crap and never should have been purchased would easily be Stuart Downing for £20 million :emoticon-0121-angry

    There isn't enough space on the internet to list all of Sunderland failings.

    Recently that’d be Klaassen

    Koeman kept picking him and I watched him for awhille thinking, there must be a player in there somewhere as we’ve paid £24m.....turns out there wasn’t, and he was just absolutely ****ing dogshit.

    Too many to list them all <laugh>
    But a few of the very notable ones

    Chris Sutton - PL golden boot winner, one half of the Sutton and Shearer title winning Blackburn front line, pay a club record fee of £10m (which, in 1999 was a ****ing fortune) and he was totally ****e for us.

    Mateja Kezman - Awesome goal scoring record in Holland, broke Van Nistelrooys record, again, came to us and was ****.

    Brian Laudrup - Signed from Rangers, great player, after 2 months at the club, he started whining that he didn't like London and was homesick, so we sold him to FC Copenhagen in a part swap deal for Bjarne Goldbaek

    Bakayoko - He has been utter **** this season, nuff' said <laugh>

    lol heres mine off top of my head (theres been a lot at chelsea, a graveyard for strikers) not in any particular order:

    1. Chris Sutton. The really **** half of SAS

    2. Shevchenko, awesome in championship manager, awesome on pro evo, awesome in real life and we put him under mourinho and he's absolute dog ****.

    3. Bakayoko, heard he was a beast at monaco, looked weak, can't pass or control a ball, can't believe how bad of a midfielder he is

    4. Danny ****ing drinkwater for 40m.

    5. Falcao, why loan a guy if you aint going to touch him

    6. Torres absolute dog ****e

    That is one hell of an expensive list!

    Di Maria really should have done more at united.

    yup that ****er was 40m. The sad thing is he's meant to be at his best right now and when we signed him the ****er was injured.

    Unbelievable Jeff
