Worse signing of the season

Bebe - i reckon the scout who recommended him has been fired :D

Sebastien Squillaci - i'm surprised Arsenal went for him firstly cause of his age and secondly cause he is dross!

Alexander Hleb - perhaps if he spent more time putting in an effort instead of telling everyone how he wishes to join Arsenal, he could find himself in the starting line up.

Stephen Ireland - once labelled by somebody here as Gerrard's successor. how the mighty has fallen lol

Christian Poulsen - he just doesn't have it anymore.

Paul Konchesky - out went Insua and in came PK on a contract which is too long IMO. and we paid too much for someone who was in his last year of contract with Fulham as well.

Milan Jovanovic - i liked his enthusiasm when he first arrived but he faded.

Roque Santa Cruz - his only telling contribution so far was a header which hit the post.

Edin Dzeko - considering how all the big clubs were sniffing around him, and his price, i was expecting him to light up the charts but i've been largely disappointed.

Mauro Boselli - for a small club, the money should have been spent more wisely. i believe he missed a penalty as well.

Fernando Torres has been left out because he is one for the future. i find it hard to believe someone of his quality is capable of being poor to that extent.

Mario Balotelli made the list but i took him off to bring in Jovanovic. i just cannot comprehend why on earth anyone wants to buy a player with the mental age of 6.

this list is applicable to players only hence Roy Hodgson does not make the list.

i voted for Konchesky cause it was a bad signing in so many ways.

Poulsen for me I reckon, how much did we pay for Konchesky?

Both of them are sh!te nontheless - that's about £10m down the sh!tter isn't it?

Balotelli should be there, what a waste of 24m

Dzeko is too early to tell and Torres should be in that list, 1 goal in 14 games for a 50m striker :laugh:

Where is Torres?

Anyway i voted Dzeko. 35million for a bad striker.

Its Torres half season or not - hes been twice as bad as everyone else in half the time so when you combine that with the British record transfer fee its not even close in my eyes.

Konchesky for me.. lost us a lot of points.  You know you have a bad player on your hands when they can single-handidly be pointed out for losing you the game or the win.

Horrible for us and now horrible in the championship as well.

Just throwing this out there... FA cup final we won against west ham.. He scored on us via a bad cross for you guys that don't remember :laugh:

I went for Konchesky... A few factors to consider such as age and price paid... Rules out the likes of Bebe, Balotelli, Dzeko and Boselli for me.... Konchesky for the price paid, his age, and where we had to send him to get rid all add up to a disaster signing

i'm giving Torres the benefit of a doubt. he was poor not only at Chelsea, but also at Liverpool. hence he wouldn't be the worse signing of the season but would be the flop of the season.

I went for Konchesky. Was never good enough for us. His mum was an idiot too.
