no, i backed him up because i don't think you are right, you stated crouch was the biggest disappointment, or at least asked the question, and i have since offered my opinion, which you have argued against, although you now state veron is. If you're looking at big losses what about Vieri on a free to milan, or Figo to Inter for £2million after Madrid paid a world record fee, was he a waste of money just because there's such a big difference?

i think you need to figure out exactly what your point is before you start arguing

Owen was undersold by Liverpool for £8m and Crouch was bought for £7.5m. Is Rick Parry that incompetent?


Owen was going anyway like someone said but we also got that defender in the deal Josami is it, anyway hardly plays but just felt like saying

When you figure out what objective means, let me know. Razz


thats a great response which completely avoided answering the point i was trying to make and one that you had to answer, which seems to be a common theme to your replies to posts on here

Wasn't Nunez part of the Owen deal as well? Admittedly he's hopeless but hey!

Well at the top of my page it says "Is Peter Crouch the worst signing in the history of football"
By your answer it is "no"

Just for us Liverpool fans (and it will make us feel better!!) Peter Crouch, or Sean Dundee? Which is better value for money?

Blond,

Actually Cupra's reasoning is spot on. The topic of this thread, is, Is Peter Crouch, the worst signing in the history of football ?
You said Veron was a worse signing, he agreed with you, and then you slate him...

As they said about Dennis Wise, I bet you could start an argument in a phonebox! Now get those blinkers off, and stop acting like a troll!

Wengers worst signings:

Igor Stephanovs - just really really really bad and hardly played. But did well in the European cup for his country. (even if he is an Igor tthuur Big Grin)

Francis Jeffers - spent most of his time injured and we lost a lot of money when we sold him. We had better youth players at the club at the time.

Kaba Diawara - never looked like scoring

Remi Garde - worse than Cygan

Cygan - dont even get me started

Though I could dredge up some truely awful pre-wenger signings

wreh, cygan, any keeper - arsenal

too lazy to go through everyone, rebrov etc


Veron was absolute tosh!

For a supposed world rated midfielder that was in his prime, he was dire.

I never understood why that was, because he was a genuinely good player before he came to England. Confused

If this isn't a troll-like remark, I don't know what is?

Are you Cupra's mummy? Wink


his partner actually, you know what that is, probably something you'll never have, who could put up with your childishness?

because utd didn't base a whole team around his style of play... he had to fit in with the likes of Beckham or Keane...

not used to not being top dog..

LOL yes Big Grin

I seem to remember he had a hissy fit and wanted to leave. Stating he didnt want to be number two to Seaman for another season. Seaman got crocked about 2 months later, didnt play for us again and Wright is still warming the bench at Everton. Big Grin

i think you'll find all of the comments quoted relate to someone's personal life

i also think you'll find that for every comment i've made you've replied, so how have i worn anything out

tell you what, as you'll never admit you're wrong, even though half a dozen people on this board have had to tell you you're being deliberatly argumentative lets see what happens from now on, clean slate so to speak.....

Why don't you 2 beg to differ and call it quits, you are litery going round in circles and making it unpleasant for other people to post. I'm sure you are both intelligent people who don't see eye to eye but mud slinging at each other is getting you nowhere.
