Biggest waste of money signing.

Got a huge cash injection at Celtic and signed Craig Gordon for....wait for it £17 million...fans went mad...lol.

I signed defour for 14 million fans went mad 3 games in breaks his leg and is out for the season

lol
 
Surprisingly, noone.

I'm very sensible with transfers and only buy players when absolutely necessary.

Infact, in the 22 seasons I have played with Liverpool, I spent £73.5M. Kinda proud of that. :)

No need to boast now. :$
 
Jefferson 11M for Shakhtar. Bought in the January transfer window to strengthen for the Champions League. Too late for selecting him in my squad!!! Pointless signing. Couldn't play him back in Ukranian football because of the foreign players rule. Also signed Maxwell at the same time, again for Champions League on loan until the end of the season. A week later he picked up an injury and was out for the rest of the season.

Kinda related to the topic though ain't it? :P

I did have Huntelaar on a free transfer and was paying him £80k a week to tutor a kid. So I guess that could be a big waste of money!
 
Balotelli. Never again

Really?
Admittedly I got him on a free so nothing to lose but her was absolutely immense in my Coventry save. Signed him at the start of the fourth season and scored 27 goals in 42 games. Jordan Ayew (£12.75m) & Mario upfront just ripped everyone apart.
 
For me Fabregas he wasn't getting played at Arsenal and it was 4 seasons in.
He couldn't settle in he hated my players for Fulham bought him for 80m

Yeh I spent 105m on him, averaged about 7.1 in 100 or so appearences for me, have tried lots of different types of positions for him but he just didn't fit into my tactics! Oh well, I was Man City and had so many other good players it didn't matter (H)
 
definitely Caroll....he becomes one of the top target men in both my games (fm11) but never scores as much as other target men such as Babacar/Sanogo/Derdiyok/Guarch etc.

Also - Alexis Sanchez as winger never works for me for some reason, I tried inside forward/winger etc. barely got 7.0 ratings - but most importantly didn't give quite as many assists/goals as I would have liked.

I've seen a lot of people say Cesc is ****, and I agree...he was **** for me in fm10 and fm11 until I retrained him as AMC/Striker - he is amazing there...his mentals/ppms are just epic.
 
Signed Carroll on 11.2 for Man Utd. What a useless ****!
 
Bale - £22m + clauses (Overall, something like £34m). ****** ****, the man can't stay injury free for two games in a row!!!

Also, Lukaku for £9m was not the greatest ever deal I've done.
 
Aguero for Man City in first season - played awful. Second season, however, got top scoarer :)
 
Surprisingly, Neymar, played 24 before he even got a goal and he's not contributed much else. £24million down the drain! :@

neymar was quite poor for me in my 1st season as real madrid, missing chance after chance and generally not playing well.

Same as when you had him he did score his 1st goal for 20 odd games

He is playing alot better in my 2nd season now and already has scored 11 goals in 17 games equaling the goals he scored in the 1st season
 
Bale - £22m + clauses (Overall, something like £34m). ****** ****, the man can't stay injury free for two games in a row!!!

Also, Lukaku for £9m was not the greatest ever deal I've done.

Lukaku is scoring freely for me at around a goal every 1.3 games, i rotate quite a lot as I'm man city and have balotelli at just over 1 a game too. Aguero however is failing to impress. Also I find that Neymar plays better as one of multiple AMC's.
 
Jeremy Toulalan for £24m. Playing as Man Utd, and didn't really need a DM, he was OK when he played, but not for the amount I paid for him.

Ended up selling him for £8m 4 seasons afterwards...
 
Eren Derdiyok on my Arsenal save.. dreadful when he's played.

Atleast RVP and Chamakh score goals for fun though.. :D
 
None... £3m on Kadlec, 2m on El Ghanassy £5m spent so far with PSG.. the rest from the excellent youth setup.
