Ricardo Quaresma - 15M or so. Simply awesome when he's on his game but that didnt happen too often. Became a fan favourite because he scored a few goals against the big teams. But overall was pretty poor.

Rafael Van Der Vaart - 12M. Didnt think you could go wrong with him for 12M. Well I did go wrong. Hardly ever did he get a 8 or 9. Mostly was in 6's and 7's. More often that not, 6's! Shame, because pre-patch he was awesome.

This list could go on forever but he top few are
Jonathan de Guzman- £7mil
Downing- £12mil
Capel- free
Ruben Oliviera- free
Silva- loan
Pennant- £5mil (drop him for one game and he complains)

van der vaart?! really? i nearly bought him for bolton but he chose to go to milan.

michael dawson i bought him for bolton for 10.75mil and he rarely gets a 7

Huntlaar bought him for Man Utd about £14mil got about 9 goals in all appearances not many assists, seemed terrible got £22mil at end of season off arsenal for him

cant really call free players a failure i dont imagine... get them free... sell them on for pennies.... still a good deal

retired_nursedawn

well u got a good deal there... i bought him for 11mil and hes been amazing. outshone tevez. so sold him for 21mil

giovinco 17mil. Useless.

Rodrigo Palacio. Paid 10mil and clauses for him, 9 goals in 20 games. Bought him to replace Bellamy who I sold early on, who is now standing as top scorer in league for portsmouth (26 in 30).

Not really the best idea I've had.
