    Pjanic - Arthur deal was so fraudulent, basically a trick to get the balance sheet right. Both players fell of the cliff in terms of performance on the pitch

    Vicente Iborra to Olympiacos. He is way too slow to do anything at 35. In his first interview he said that he “can’t wait to go back to Levante”. He hadn’t even met the rest of the team at that point

    Mount or Antony, when we had diallo sancho rashford garnacho and more. It annoys me whenever we take a chance of youth it pays but we always want a quick fix that never works - mount was washed ages ago just a dumb mf move

    If anyone pays for Toney north of £70m as is rumoured it will be the most bizarre one I can think of. The guy is 27 and has 8 months betting ban and they want top money for him 😂

    Djed Spence. Didn’t need him, the manager clearly didn’t want him, why did Spurs buy him? Baffling.

    Signing Arthur Melo on loan on deadline day when our midfield was falling apart

    I’ve very rarely criticised Liverpools recruitment team but that was truly staggering

    From a ManUtd supporter:

    - Mount

    - Van der Beek

    - Amrabat

    - Anthony

    Kim Kallstrom to Arsenal, now don’t get me wrong he was quite a good player especially in his Lyon days but the signing just didn’t work, we had enough good players in his position so he was never gonna make a big impact at his advancing age and then to find out he had a bad back in the medical just made it even worse

    To his credit he came up with a big moment, scoring a pen in a shootout which helped us eventually win an FA Cup that season, but it was signings like this which made the fans sceptical bout what Wenger was doing

    Back in the 90s Seth Johnson and Mark Draper went for big money, it would be equivalent to paying &75mil for someone like Sambi Lakonga today.

    Solanke for £20mil before getting a game or goal for Liverpool seemed, and was crazy.

    £30m plus for Iwobi to Everton seemed steep but he got better.

    Man utd are the kings though £85m for Antony, £80m for Sancho £75m for Hooijland? Barely any goals btween them.
