首相 League 2011-12: 最高の,を越す 10 worst 調印s of the season

It doesn’t 事柄 whether a 移転 is a pre-planned 取引,協定 完全にするd during June or a last minute panic buy on the eve of September ? there will always be 調印s to forget.

This 首相 League season has been no different. Some players have failed to 正当化する their large price tags after moving with big 評判s, while other young 星/主役にするs have struggled to adapt in new surroundings and the 錨,総合司会者d 投資 placed on them.

With the (選挙などの)運動をする coming to a の近くに, Sportsmail 査定する/(税金などを)課すs the 10 biggest 失望s in the 移転 market this season.

?

10. David Ngog

Bolton (£4m from Liverpool)

No 10: David Ngog

Over his three-year Liverpool career, two thirds of Ngog’s 63 league games (機の)カム from the 代用品,人’s (法廷の)裁判.

< p style="font-weight: bold;">The Frenchman’s time at Anfield wasn’t a 失敗 but neither was it a success as he never managed to get a decent run in the 味方する. But Owen Coyle was willing to give the striker his first team chance last summer.

But 27 games later the 23-year-old has yet to 得点する/非難する/20 at the Reebok Stadium, netting just four times in all 競争s. Ngog has 得点する/非難する/20d just one league goal since January and has been 設立する wanting playing for a team that doesn’t create many chances.


9. Romelu Lukaku

Chelsea (£18m from Anderlecht)

No 9: Romelu Lukaku

It looks 厳しい to 裁判官 a player who is yet to make his first league start for Chelsea and is still just 18-years-old, but the price tag 大(公)使館員d to Lukaku 示唆するd at least some sort of 衝撃 would be made.

The striker had been chased by 最高の,を越す European clubs 事前の to arriving at Stamford 橋(渡しをする), but in his 10 Blues games so far, Lukaku has failed to find the 逮捕する and doesn’t loo k ready for the 首相 League.

The ベルギー international hasn’t played for over two months and although 開発 time is on his 味方する, he looks a long way off the finished article ? and an £18milllion striker.


8. Samir Nasri

Man City (£24m from 兵器庫)

No 8: Samir Nasri

によれば Nasri, he joined Manchester City to 勝利,勝つ トロフィーs and he may 井戸/弁護士席 達成する that by winning the league 肩書を与える this season.

But it will come at a personal price to the Frenchman. At 兵器庫 he was 決定的な to the midfield with his keen 注目する,もくろむ for goal and talent to 陳列する,発揮する a defence splitting pass making him one of the 首相 League’s most exciting 星/主役にするs.

Since joining City, the 24-year-old has become a bit-part player. The talent is still there but his 陳列する,発揮するs are 存在 far 影を投げかけるd by his team-mates and his 在庫/株 has fallen.

Considering the relentless 追跡 by Roberto Mancini, many 推定する/予想するd Nasri to have a bigger 衝撃.

No 7: Jay Bothroyd

Last season Bothroyd was playing in the 選手権 but such was his form he had already 得点する/非難する/20d 15 goals by the time his shock England call-up (機の)カム in November 2010.

Only five more goals followed for the 残り/休憩(する) of the 称する,呼ぶ/期間/用語 but QPR’s 逮捕(する) of the striker in the summer for 解放する/自由な looked to be good 商売/仕事 for the newly 促進するd Hoops.

But the 29-year-old has struggled 不正に on his return to the 最高の,を越す flight. Just two goals in 敗北・負かすs against Tottenham and Manchester City are the only strikes he has managed in 23 games.

The arrival of Djibril Cisse and Bobby Zamora since means his Loftus Road days already look numbered.

7. Jay Bothroyd

QPR (解放する/自由な from Cardiff)

6. Jordan Henderson

Liverpool (£16m from Sunderland)

No 6: Jordan Henderson

After two 約束ing seasons at Sunderland had done wonders for Henderson’s 開発. Before he had joined Liverpool he had already made his England debut.

But it’s his 単独の international 外見 against フラン two years ago that showed the midfielder may have 可能性のある but is still a rough diamond.

Henderson still has much to learn about the game and 存在 central to Liverpool’s midfield this 称する,呼ぶ/期間/用語 has been too much too soon for the 21-year-old.

More playing time と一緒に Steven Gerrard will see him 改善する, but 権利 now he looks overpriced at £16m.

No 5: Wilson Palacios

特に during his first couple of seasons at Tottenham, Palacios was 決定的な to Harry Redknapp ’s midfield, so the Honduran’s 移転 to Stoke last summer looked smart 商売/仕事 for Tony Pulis.

But unlike fellow arrival from White Hart 小道/航路, Peter Crouch, Palacios has not nailed 負かす/撃墜する a starting 役割 at the Britannia Stadium and looks a 影をつくる/尾行する of the player he once was.

The 27-year-old has featured more in the second half of the season but where you could once 保証(人) he would be hassling the 対立’s playmaker, Palacios now looks much more 保守的な at a cost to his 全体にわたる game.

5. Wilson Palacios

Stoke (£8m from Tottenham Hotspur)


?

4. Connor Wickham

Sunderland (£13m from Ipswich)

No 4. Connor Wickham

In fairness to Wickham, Sunderland has not been the ideal club this season to make the step up from the 選手権 into the 首相 League.

A big turnover of players and a change of 経営者/支配人 示す a 過度期の season for the 黒人/ボイコット Cats and the 19-year-old has 苦しむd from it.

The striker has 得点する/非難する/20d just once in an 傷害-攻撃する,衝突する (選挙などの)運動をする where he has featured 18 times, but his 早期に struggles in a 実験(する)ing 環境 will be seen as a 失望.

Wickham hasn’t started a league game since December.

No 3. Charles N'Zogbia

Alex McLeish has struggled all season at Aston 郊外住宅, but he wasn’t helped last summer when the club sold their best creative players in Stewart 負かす/撃墜するing and Ashley Young before he arrived.

The Scot’s choice of a 交替/補充 winger wasn’t a bad one, on paper at least. N’Zogbia’s form and nine goals for Wigan last season, 特に the latter half, played a big part in keeping the Latics up.

But the Frenchman has not 攻撃する,衝突する the same 基準s at 郊外住宅 Park. Almost 匿名の/不明の in games and just two goals has led to the 25-year-old 存在 dropped from the 味方する in 最近の matches.

3. Charles N'Zogbia

Aston 郊外住宅 (£9.5m from Wigan)




?

2. Roger Johnson

Wolves (£7m from Birmingham)

No 2: Roger Johnson

With Scott Dann と一緒に him in defence, Johnson was 決定的な to Birmingham, and Wolves looked like they had 安全な・保証するd a 最高の,を越す 調印 by bringing in the 28-year-old last summer.

Mick McCarthy 即時に made him his captain but it’s been a terrible season for the former Cardiff 星/主役にする.

A loss of form and off-pitch 出来事/事件s have seen him feature just twice since McCarthy’s 解雇(する)ing two months ago but even before that he looked a 義務/負債 in the Wolves backline.

Unfortunately for Johnson he now looks 始める,決める to be relegated for the second season running with his Molineux 未来 uncertain.

< /div>
No 1: Stewart Downing

負かす/撃墜するing’s final season at Aston 郊外住宅 was arguably his finest of his career. Seven league goals and nine 補助装置s for a club that was having a torturous time on the field was a decent 記録,記録的な/記録する.

But that didn’t stop the eyebrows 存在 raised when Liverpool paid a 抱擁する £20m for the winger. The 27-year-old has failed to become the 重要な player he was at 郊外住宅 Park and has had an 普通の/平均(する) season at best.

負かす/撃墜するing has still yet to 得点する/非難する/20 a league goal and looks like his 信用/信任 has taken a 攻撃する,衝突する 裁判官ing by his 欠如(する) of runs into the 刑罰,罰則 box to 修正する his 欠如(する) of goals, with or without the ball.

1. Stewart 負かす/撃墜するing

Liverpool (£20m from A.郊外住宅)
