Rebrov has got to be up there. Can't conclude on the Chelsea two as they've only had 1 season so far.

Hugo Viana

The 21-year-old began his career with Sporting before moving to St James' Park in an £8.5million deal in June 2002.

He played there for two seasons and then returned to Sporting on loan. At the start of the 2005-06 season he went to Valencia, again on loan. In March 2006, Valencia have signed him permanently for £1.5m according to reports.

Lique, although he was injured for ages still cost £10M

Its no wonder Newcastle have won Sweet FA.

Fabien Barthez - £7.8 million, he was so bad that Manchester paid £2.4m (the rest of his contact) just so he can **** off!!

Youstolemyname · 25 May 2006 at 17:20

Paul Stewart. Julian Dicks. El-Hadji Diouf.

Or basicly 90% of Houllier's signings and 100% of Souness'
