Re: New number 9
Something I read ;
" Jean-Kevin Augustin is not just the worst Leeds United striker of all time, he also has the infamy of being the single worst signing of all time, by pretty much every single measurable metric.
HITC Football did a video on it a couple of months ago where they went into far more detail than I could ever dream of.
But they pretty much concluded that for the money we spent, versus the amount of time he was on the pitch, and the actual contribution we got from him during that time, he goes down as the undisputed single worst signing in football history, or at least recorded history. "

Which tells you no matter how good the manager or how good the player, sometimes even good to great managers miss the bleedin' obvious

I don't imagine you will find a player in football history worse.
So they probably right

Re: New number 9
There can't have been a worse signing in football history surely ? I could have run frenetically around the pitch for 50 mins and made just as significant a contribution - and I would have done it for a bargain £100k such is my tender conscience in terms of giving value for money....
