Expensive flops

All the fellas here are good players, strictly speaking. But thinking of the economics of football. A fella can go from a hero to a zero very quickly. The money is all 'relative'.....it can be PSG or Crawley Town...the key thing being that the fecker cost more than he was really worth. Very often they arrived after a triumphant career at another club.

1. Kylian Mbappe .....the Real Madrid fans really hate him.

2. Shefki Kuqi....divebombed our bank account and almost never divebombed in a goal-celebration.

3. Angel Di Maria.....went to ManUre for crazy money, and was gone before anybody bothered to remember him even wearing the shirt. Subsequently he had a good career elsewhere.

4. Mesut Ozil......Bug-eyed Marty Feldman doppelganger.....started out good, then he got lazy & lacking in hunger. Ended up mediocre like a 28 year old George Best.....but with a big price-tag.

You can also include brilliant players who were always sidelined through injury/suspension.....hence.....

5. Owen Hargreaves (injury) & Richard Dunne ( Red Cards )

what others ? you can also include costly managers who only managed to annoy the fans.
