Let's face it, while we have seen some great players strut their stuff in the premer league we have also seen some garbage too. Here's a couple to get the ball rolling and I will start off with some of the many dead legs United have bought.
Juan Sebastian Veron: Lazio to Manchester United, £28.1 m (2001)

Angel di Maria: Real Madrid to Manchester United, £59.7m (2014)
images

Christian Benteke: Aston Villa to Liverpool, £32.5m (2015)
images

Fernando Torres: Liverpool to Chelsea, £50m (2011)

images

Andy Carroll: Newcastle United to Liverpool, £35m (2011)
images

Andriy Shevchenko: AC Milan to Chelsea, £30.8m (2005)
images

Robinho: Real Madrid to Manchester City, £32.5m (2008)
images

Robbie Keane: Tottenham Hotspur to Liverpool, £20m (2008)
images

Roberto Soldado: Valencia to Tottenham Hotspur, £26m (2013)

Adrian Mutu: Parma to Chelsea, £15.8m(2003)

Just looking for a pic of donny van de beek as he is truly abysmal, shocking, can't believe he was ajax captain, it's totally baffling why he is so crap.

For Chelsea biggest flops at a guess alvaro morata/benayoun/bosnich/mutu/shevchenko/Wright phillips/kalou/malouda/bosnich/torres/anelka these are personal preferance
 
This is the second time I've recently seen the OP criticised for starting a thread, it's turned into something of a witch hunt with people following him round finding fault with his posting.

Good thread topic Red - the most baffling of the flops for me was Torres, everyone knew he was on the wane yet Chelsea paid top money for him. Liverpool must have been peeing themselves laughing.

His all round game performance is outstanding with the work rate he puts in he's just not as good as a drogba who we've never replaced
 
Slightly off topic how the best signing in recent years without a doubt is Riyad Mahrez and Vardy for Leicester. Mahrez cost 400K! Less than half a million and then sold for 60 Million. And Vardy cost 1 Million. When they won the league between them they banged in 35 Goals at 1.5 Million Between them. Absolutely mental.

Mahrez alone that season scored 16 and assisted 11. Solely responsible for 27 goals at 400K. Nothing compares in my opinion in recent years.

Back to the flops. Maguire and Pogba cost nearly 200 Million between them. 2/10ths of a billion. Garbage both of them.
