Yo bro...
U missed out Fabien Barthez.
Diego Forlan also sux.
Eric Djemba Djemba also sux.
alan smith starting not bad actually, just that he was for no reason demoted to midfield
wa lao how can fabian barthez compare to Taibi + Bosnich...
I saw with my own eyes Taii and Bosnich do the exact same thing - - - - - let strikers GO past them...

He brought in alot of flops, like howard, djemba, bellion and later saha, who was injury prone and still is. i cant remember the midfielder bought from celtic, he is from ireland, hailed as the next keane omg LOOL
I know i know!!
Liam Miller..
He is shit
Maybe there is more flops but we simply forget the names. LOL.

Jaap Stam is a waste... Go Ajax is sibeh waste. Ole cannot be first 11, he is super sub...
Yes... if Jaap Stam was not sold, Blanc wont come at all.
Duno y Buy 33 years old replace Stam

I think Fergie want to pair Bathez with Blanc together. Blanc like to kiss Barthez's forehead b4 the match starts. Its like a ritual.
But they are a joke at United even though they won the world cup.
I see i see....
How about Luke Chadwick...
I know him as Pimple boy last time.. Dribble lose ball, cross cannot make it, kena bang fall down...

I think he is known for his dribbling (save for the fact he cant get pass more physical players)
When I played championship manager last time... i rememebr his dribbling stats is 19 or 20.
I also dunno much about him except pimple boy too. Maybe that time dont have too many choice to replace giggs or becks on the wings thats why he was used.
he is used to replace beckham one...
Now he plays for MKD third tier...
That time i watch MKD vs scunthrope.
He no more pimples and is first choice player in flank or forward..
Worst player? Andy Cole - he's not just the worst I've seen at United, but the worst by a long mile.
It's incredible what can be achieved when you have all the luck in the world...
Saha isn't a flop to me, just that he wears glass legs.

you look like one who has only started to watch football recently...
you forget the greats like Steve Bruce, Captain Marvel himself Bryan Robson, Peter "The Giant Starfish" Schmeichel... and the commanding presence of the Kung-fu expert, Cantona..
dig deeper and you'll see the almost magical skills of George Best who was amazing..
Alan Smith, Phil Nevile and Saha are not exactly flops. Neither do Laurent Blanc and Fortune.
If you were to let me choose, i would say is Veron. Expensive flop. (Probably BPL style does not suit to his style of play)
Semi-flops..
Anderson and Hargreaves?
Anderson - If not for his tireless running, I think most fans would have rated him as the next Kleberson liao.
Hargreaves - Hasn't disappointed when he plays. But too injury prone, can fight with Foster for most appearances on treatment table.

P Neville, Laurent Blanc, Saha shouldn't even be on that list of yours... Blanc did rather well helping United win the EPL title in his second season... He was also a very cool defender... I believe Rio learnt a lot from him cos I somehow find Rio's style quite similar to his then...
Another one is Saha... Although injury prone, he contributed a lot to them winning the 2006/07 season's title during a time when Roon and Ron were coming of age only... Fergie bench Rvn due to Saha's top form... It was then that Rvn and Fergie didn't get along... Cos Saha was scoring more goals and performing better than Ruud, and Fergie drop him in favour of Saha.
The likes of Fortune, P Neville also don't deserve to be called flops... They are very much what Fletcher is to United today... They were utility players asked to cover different positions when the team needed... only difference is they were not in a great side like what Fletcher has now...
Veron and Alan Smith well, while Veron was there, he played many games... and they did win the premiership title too with him in the squad... and the return they got for him $15m isn't too bad either... So I can see it otherwise. Smith, he came and left at about the same price... So its ok, and we can see he really did tried very hard... Many United fans still like him...
The others like Chadwick, Richardson were like from their youth team, didn't cost much, if anything, they made handsome profits for the club somemore... Good to have more of these type of players, how can you call them flops... lol
Liam Miller, he was signed as a free so its still ok, nvm.
Only ones I can agree on your list are Kleberson, Djemba Djemba and the Italian keeper... But Taibi had a great debut leh, even getting man of the match award for his great performance helping United win Liverpool... For this we forgive him... lol
