Really? I know his legs were shot but he was the most creative player we had at the time and i remember him setting up several goals with well weighted passes.
Was Posuso signed by Dowie...if so 4 on the list were his! Weaver, I know it's controversial and probably a little unfair but i have always hated the bloke AND I had to include one of Pardews signings.
The most pointless
1. Omar Pouso 2. Stuart Fleetwood 3. Paulo Monterio 4. Dorian Smith 5. The young bloke Dowie got from Celtic (Staunton I think?) 6. Simon Walton
Christ didnt know old Jonah had so many fans.. remeber the grief he used to get in the coverd end.. just for the money we spent on him just thought he never made the impact he could have done, glad to take him off my list now and would replace him with:
Pin the tail on the donkey but my personal in my personal opinion:
1: Mamdy Faye (rubbish & couldn't give a toss) 2: Djimi Circus (2 memorable contributions, getting sent off at Wham & costing us that last minute goal in Pardew's first game) 3: Omar Pouso (£850k loan fee + wages for 50 minutes of Ali Dai esq dross in a defeat) 4: Marcus Bent (£2m for more appearances in the tabloids than in a Charlton shirt) 5: Cory Gibbs (Richard Murray's worst signing. Would love to know the signing on fee, wages & mediacal bills that cnut cost us)
[cite]Posted By: StubleyAddick[/cite]Shaun Barlett good in his first two seasons but lazy and crap the nest seasons and we paid like 2 million for him
Bartlett was tremendous for us and it was largely because of him that Curbs' much maligned boring 4-5-1 was so successful in keeping us safely mid-table in the Prem.
He willingly took on the unglamourous unrewarding role of lone striker and made the system work.
Lone strikers invariably get flak I give you Deon Burton as a current example.
El Khalej Spector Petterson (apart from THAT save against Palarse)[/quote]
Petterson wasn't that bad, got player of the year 96/97.
Probably doesn't justify a place in the top 5 but Darren Ambrose has never anywhere near lived up to his supposed potential. Robbie Mustoe was a bit dull but don't think anyone can live up to Traore and Faye's spectacular woefulness. Bartlett and Steve Jones should not be mentioned on this list. Might not have been worldbeaters but both made significant contributions during their spells here.
FFS, i aint the only person who put John 'after 90 mins of sheer hell' Barnes. i thought he was gona be a great signing but he looked like my over weight dad puffing around the centre circle.

1. Bent M
2. Gray
3. Traore
4. Redfearn
5. Varney L
I've based my selection on end product against expectation for the money paid. There are a number of others but these are the five that came to mind.
2. Alan Pardew
3. Traore
4. Pouso
5. Hasselbaink
And the winner at Swindon, and the winner against Portsmouth, and the two at Maine Road, not to mention the goal at Anfield...
Okay, there were not too many more, but one of the five worst? C'mon Adam...

3) Rommedahl
4) Rowett (although not his fault)
5) Traore
agree with most posters above but would also add
El Khalej
Spector
Petterson (apart from THAT save against Palarse)
And Chris Wilder was prior to the return to the Valley, and also only on loan.
Sorry to be picky!
Really? We've needed a striker like him since he left. Best forward for holding the ball up Ive seen for a long time! one of the 5 worst? No chance.
Bartlett was tremendous for us and it was largely because of him that Curbs' much maligned boring 4-5-1 was so successful in keeping us safely mid-table in the Prem.

Def disagree with Barnes replace with Blomqvist
