OMG Balotelli for Chelsea.
Start of Season 4 from Man City for £5m.
He started ok wouldn't talk to me by October, requested a transfer in November and joined Valencia 1st January.
Got the transfer fee back but wrote off the signing on fees and 100k a week.
7 games :(
 
Purchased Robbie Keane for Leeds United for 3.2 million 6 games into my 2012/2013 season. Average rating so far? 5.6!!!!! No goals, no assists, 2 red cards! Excellent

I got Balotelli to Aston Villa for 9M, and he`s been happy and amazing for me. Only downside is that he`s making 110k a week, Ashley Young, who is the second highest earner, makes 68k. :S
 
Juan Mata signed for 23M, did absolutely nothing in 1 and a half seasons, he became unhappy with rio ferdinand and demanded i sell him, scored 1 goal had about 3 assists which from an attacking midfielder/winger is a disgrace. Tried doing everything i could to make him happy and get him playing well. In the end he requested a transfer so i offloaded him to Barca in the summer for 13M, i see him now currently playing out of his skin for them. He better watch out if we play each other in the Champions League
 
balotelli on my man city game is rubbish up front and out wide and i dont understand why, and jo on my besiktas game is awful as well and i thought he would be a good buy :/
 
I bought Steve Howard for Brighton in my first season and he's been a disgrace. His stats are really good for a League One player but he just can't be arsed. He got eight goals in three or four games then did absolutely nothing for the next ten. He's like a fat Dimitar Berbatov.
 
Saurez for me, Don't even like him so not sure why I signed him on football manager. Cost me about 20 million and never settled. Ended up playing Pacheco over him at the age of 19.
 
Macheda from United for 16mill.

First game - Broke his leg, out for 8 months. 6months in complaining about how "my squad status seems to have changed"

Demanded to move. Sold him for 5mill to chelsea. 11 mill for less than 30mins work

pretty harsh luck there
 
Suarez man!!
he s an ok player but pretty useless
was top scorer of Champions League
bought him for 30 million including clause
never got tthe best of him since I had Higuain and Benzeima
my bad maybe

However Mexes is a beast man. Got him for free signing
scored 9 goals for me in one season..all from corner!! pretty nasty right? :D Woody Tactics!

Celestine Babayaro! I got him on free transfer, but somehow he made me regret it.
 
Lee Choung-Yong.
Signed him from Bolton with Birmingham for £6.5 million and then £750,000 after 30 games.
Absolute nightmare, was utter rubbish.
 
Don't have a bad signing but I paid out of my a** for Hulk. However, he was my leading goal scorer and was absolutely dominant so I guess it was an ok deal.
 
luis suarez 20 million over 4 years - signed him in january played 13 scored 1, 1 assist then second season started great got 8 in 7 but then fell out with torres gerrard reina and johnson so he had to go took 5 million loss
 
Ibrahim Afellay. Despite getting him for free and the fact he scored a hattrick and got two assists against Chelsea on his first full debut he's basically been bullshit, finishing the season with the 3 goals he scored against Chelski plus 2 more assists in 24 appearances. Although now in his second season it looks as though he might be settling in...still a massive dissapointment. Good job Nasri and suprisingly an ageing Arshavin are doing the damage in the league for me this season! :D
