Recent big money strikers that didn't work out.

I'd say Pavlyuchenko and Crouch have been really pretty good  in all fairness. Unfair as it may be, Eduardo at Arsenal hasn't been a great signing.

 

Aye in terms of injury he's been unlucky but when he's actually played I don't think there's a more clinical finisher in the league.

 

Agree. Eduardo was a class above pre-injury.

I'd say Rebrov was one of the worst.

 

Kezman didn't work out, still rate him though.

 

Shevchenko was a massive flop.

 

Bent was for the money spent.  If they had got him for near half that then I'd say he was ok.

 

Francis Jeffers was a shite at over £10m for Arsenal.

 

Diouf for Liverpool was overpriced.

 

Chopra for Sunderland, he is never worth £5m.

 

Adebayor would have been the worst if he went for £34m to somewhere.

Ronaldo clearly didnt work out, the fat jabba that he was / is.

 

Looking less podge now. still way to injury prone tho nowadays but still had like a 1 in 2 record at milan i think

Bianchi.

 

Good shout.

 

Svennis with two flops on his hands.

 

Bojinov and Caicedo to make it four

Neither of them cost that much did they? What happened to Nery Castillo?

 

Not sure on Bojinov but Caicedo was £6m i think & i'm sure City broke there transfer record for Bojinov. Castillo got injured early doors and was only on loan anyway. I assume he's gone back to Eastern Europe.

Bojinov didn't cost more than five or six pounds.

 

"European football reporter Dave Farrar thinks Bojinov could "light up the Premier League" and emulate a previous City cult hero.

 

"Bojinov's got all the talent in the world, and I can see him being a Georgi Kinkladze-style fans favourite," Farrar told BBC Five Live Sport.

 

"He's one of those players around whom there is always something happening. He's a fun signing."  :lol: :lol:
