Middlesborough with arguably the worst signing so far:
Middlesborough sign Ashley Fletcher from West Ham United for £6.5m.
West Ham signed him on a free last year and in that time he has played in 20 games for West Ham and scored 1 goal in the league cup. Add to that Boro have already spent £24m on 2 strikers!

I was going along with this until it sunk in that you'd said someone at the rags was being astute :-)When you consider that he's a very limited footballer that only works in a top team under Mourinho's ultra negative setup it's quite astute really. Mourinho won't last 3 more years there so the minute he packs his bags, half of their squad is going to need showing the door too if they have any chance of competing. Better than being lumbered with a very expensive version of Sam Allardyce's Bolton long after Mourinho has gone.
