A little unfair. It's not like any of them cost us lots of money. All 11 players probably cost us less than Shevchenko cost Chelsea (probably the most expensive flop in English football) and we even made a profit on Bellamy.
Putting Rafa's comments about Gonzalez into perspective, I watched him a few times the season he was on loan in Spain waiting for his work permit and he looked the goods. In one game against Real Madrid he ripped them apart. But as we all know, Spain is not the EPL and not every good player is suited to English football.
Besides I'm sure if we troll through the signings of all the top sides we'll find them littered with flops.
