Worst Transfers in Premier League History....

[MSC]

Jozy was shite, but Haway he was nowhere near as bad a signing as Rodwell, N’Dong or Djilobodji.

Agreed and added in the fee we got back from him was Defoe which was one of safc best ever transfer deals imo.

1/ Altidore
2/ Rodwell
3/ Flo
4/ Dillyboji
5/ NDong

Altidores transfer far less damaging to the club than the others on that list mate.

 

[Fetch Fletch]

He was for a bit, surely? Not a very long bit, but when he could still run he was unreal. Real Madrid didn't come in for him for nowt.

Aye, but as Steve said, it wasn't a long time and you certainly couldn't say 'by his own world class standards'.

Is it just a link direct to Steve Bruce and his clusterfuck summer 2011

 

[CollingwoodFTM]

26 in 71 for them and he was played as a no.10 for quite a while by keegan. that doesn't seem like a bad transfer?

I wish our strikers had that goal to game ratio.

Roswell

 

[Paolo's Right Hand]

Who?

Scocco or some shit

 

[MackneyHackem]

Scocco or some shit

I have no idea who that is.

 

[danbob]

How is Michael Owen on that list?

It’s a load of bollocks.

 

[Paolo's Right Hand]

I have no idea who that is.

That Argentina striker Poyet signed and then never played

Ah, aye rings a bell.

 

[SAFC11]

Loads in that list were worse signings than altidore. Got to a league cup final the year we had him, only paid 6mill or so and got defoe in return for him when he left

 

[JL1985]

Ricky Alvarez was a cracker

 

[Mallard]

Jozy isnt even our worst signing in the premier league

He scored 1 goal mate. He missed open goals because he thought it would be better to do a Harvey Price in front of goal. That guy was a disgrace.

Dont disagree, but there are players on that list that didnt even manage to score a goal

 

[Laidback Jack]

Owen was world class up to the 5-1 in Germany

Unfortunately his hamstring prevented him from possibly beating linekers scoring record for England, plus Liverpool winning the premier league

He was a top class finisher but I always felt he was terrified of the hamstring going and played within himself

Such a shame imo

Injuries took away his pace. Was blistering from 1998-2002ish i'd say but he never quite reached the same level afterwards. Still quick mind but never lightning.
