What do you think is the worst signing in the last decade:
1) your fav teams
2) overall Premier
?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ???
Some trade you loathe and know your club will regret forever!
Arsenal: Wiltord.
Everton or not, he has not been worth the money and I fear he will not be.

How about Gillespie to Ncastle for A. Cole?
That was not a good trade in Ncastle“s perspective?

Or how about DIRE STRAITS DIAPER AWARD to Everton:
(Money for nuttin)
They got this some foreing signing, who played poorly and after a racist confontration was outta there!!??
That“s waste of money.

Tommy Docherty made some beauties whilst he was the Villa, but we signed an Argentinian called Oscar Arce what a clown

Fav team. Colin Murdock from Manchester United.
Prem: i'm looking closely at Diego Forlan he seems to be a waste of space.
Overall tho it must be Ade Akinbiyi.

Mark: Grimandi cost Arse nothing and is NEVER injured.
Grimandi comes pretty handy, when you are in danger of having to choose between LUZHNY and STEPANOVS (terrible duet from Ural)!!! :eek HELP
Grimandi to the rescue. (Upson is always inj)
I still don“t understand why Wenger sold Silvinho? Stupid move.
Also a stupid move: letting Platt&Merson leave a year too early. They would“ve still been very useful for one year at least.
Fav team- Jordi Cruyff
Prem team- Marco Boogers

You cant count poor Luc, he broke his leg in two places, never played again
yeah, not saying he was bad talent. Just you spent £10M on him and he played a handful of games
I bet ur still paying his wages
If your talking about Nilis he didn't cost anything. He was a Bosman signing.

If anything Villa made money on him with the insurance payoutfor an established International player

Feb 15 2002, 04:05 PM
He got homesick in 1 day? In his own country?

I think you're thinking of Clive Wijnhard? Not sure though i can see the guy's face.
Liverpool - Where do i start. Come on Roy Evans bought players off video eg/ Kvarme - Worst must be either Istvam Kozma or Torben Picnin
Premiership - Faustino Asprilla - He cursed Newcatle and is now a case for Where are they now?
Leeds Pioneer
Feb 17 2002, 07:15 PM
The player is Clyde Wijnhard, Leeds purchased him from Willem for £1.5m in 1998. Leeds sold him to Huddersfield in 1999 for £750k, he was their top scorer in his first season scoring 16 goals.
Before the start of the 2000 season he was nearly killed in a car accident and did not play football for well over a year and has just returned to playing for Huddersfield again in January, I think he has scored a couple of goals since he returned.
As far as the worst Leeds signing, I think Tomas Brolin takes some beating. £4.5m (in 1995 that was a lot of money) 25 apps. 4 goals, free transfer 7 months later!

Have a heart mate - he was a decent player, you can't slate someone because they receive a career ending injury when they've just started for a team - have you no shame at all?

Feb 18 2002, 06:17 PM
Jean Michelle Ferri - Awful. One sub appearance and consistently outclassed in the reserves. He was s**t. Sold back to some french s**t side.
Traore is a future prospect and Heggem has been unlucky with injuries. His contract has been renewed

That Beuchamp bloke the hammers signed was kept outside Harry Redknackers office whiler his agent sorted out his wages,ect,teh agent stitched him up big time.......He did not want to leave Oxford but they forced him out as they found out that he was having a relationship with an underaged girl,not the "girlfriend" that was interviewed by the newspapers at the time.............mind you who would want to drive from Oxford to East London every day.......have you ever done it ? it`s a nightmare,can take up to 4 hours.........8 hours possibly travelling a day......er no thanks..............worst signing the hammers ever made was Scott Mean from Bournmouth,bought him,he wrecks knee second day of training,off for a year,3 weeks into comeback they sell him to .........Bournmouth,3 months later Bournmouth say he is back to his best,put him up for sale...........guess who buys him.......thats right West Ham............where is he now,plays for a pub team in the Sussex 3rd division,when he can be bothered in between modeling and acting assignments !

arsenal have had worser signings. what about alberto mendez, or christopher wreh
Jere Markus

I still think Lauren&Kanu were some of the worst.
But how about trades of "who we let slip away":
1) Silvinho
2) Merson
3) Andy Cole (wasn“t he at Arse?!)
4) Platt
5) Winterburn :) only kidding
