Look at it another way, plenty on here were desperate to tell us how good David Luiz, De Rossi and Gourcuff were and should be signed at any cost.

I regret buying Buster Phillips
Exeter City will always be grateful !
Eden Hazard instead of Scott Sinclair
Fucking hell I still remember blues trying to convince people (themselves) that Sinclair was actually a real diamond in the rough and we'd just been prudent in the market. That window was a true disaster.

Letting Dennis Tueart go the first time. Start of the downward spiral.

Not our best transfer window since the takeover.
There were external constraints linked with FFP which led to penny pinching, and Rodwell / Nastasic were decent squad signings before injury / loss of form.Sinclair

And of the two big money targets missed that season (neither feasible really due to FFP) - Hazard was obviously a loss but RVP was an early, bit more successful version of Sanchez. Got them one title, but cost them close to 80-90mn of fees + wages that hamstrung them at a critical juncture.

Luis Figo came over as a teenager when Peter Reid was in charge but Swales wouldn't pay the £2m asking.

He'd probably have been shit here anyway.
