Accurate.

Add in Marcelino and Luque and that's 4 of the top 5 for us

 

[Smartin]

Fletcher
Flo
Johnson
Sillybody
NDong
Rodwell
Gordon
Alverez

All signed for big money and left for nothing.

 

[jcrossan]

Shoala and Steve Harper sat on the toon bench for over twenty years earning + 40 k
Stole a living

Alvarez could have sat on our bench for quarter of a century for the same amount

 

[Hull_Mackem]

In no particular order

Rodwell
Gyan
Muto
Jacob Murphy
Almiron
Ndong
Fletcher
Mitrovich
Wijnaldun
Thauvin

Half of them are probably not even in the top 50! Did you put any thought in to this or just type the first ten players that came in to your head?

 

[Burnopfield Mackem]

Not at all what I remember of him marra. He was expensive but a quality keeper, IMHO!

Fantastic reactive shot stopper, poor on crosses, poor kicker and slow getting down to low shots from longer range. Was delighted when we signed him but he was hugely disappointing.

 

[GK]

Why nufc?

 

[lurker]

Shearer
Phillips

 

[West_Winger]

Us
Rodwell

Them
Owen

 

[Binxy]

Shearer

Werld record fee and won them the grand total of fuck all.

 

[chunkyshanhawk53]

What a strange thread

Anyway some that haven’t been mentioned for us (or I may have missed)

Medina - 3.5m and didn’t play
Davis - spunked most of our budget on him
McFadden - why?
McCartney
Halford
Stokes
Coates - we even had him on loan so we knew he was shite

 

[Alovesuperb]

Angeleri.
scocco.
etc etc

benjani,
saha,
cole.
kyriagos.
why to all of them

 

[alexsafc4]

Fletcher
Flo
Johnson
Sillybody
NDong
Rodwell
Gordon
Alverez

This implies that you expect a fee for every departure. Surely the 60 goals fletcher and Johnson contributed in their 4 years here make them far from worthless. Gordon had a big hand (literally) in keeping us up 07/08 and played well when admittedly he wasn’t injured

 

[BigPete]

Oh so many to name few people may have forgot Ndong, Johnson, Giaccherini, Graham, Altidore

Defoe came as a result of Altidore so it was a cracking signing IMO also the assist

 

[iansun]

Swap gyan for flo

 

[Ohnonotagain]

Michael Owen for them Rodwell for us

Us
Rodwell

Them
Owen

Damn, you beat me to it.

 

[West_Winger]

Michael Owen for them Rodwell for us


Damn, you beat me to it.
