Rust’s upHe's not the 'worst' I've ever seen and that's by a long shot. The list is long and plenty on that front
Rudy still holds that record for me.
Especially when you throw in he cost 6mil and probably as much again in wages for 6 league goals in 4 years.
You have to wonder why we bought Akpom looking at his stats? He's never scored goals.

It depends on what you value in a striker, but certainly Gestede was a worse deal. But over the course of a season he’d score more than Akpom. That’s purely what I’m judging him on.
In terms of goals scored, potential, goal threat and general impact on a game, he’s by far the worst I’ve seen. Gestede at least offered a focal point up front, Akpom offers absolutely nothing and never has. On top of his non-scoring season with Hull, he was also voted one of Brighton’s worst ever XI.
I was livid when we signed him, even more livid when Warnock claimed he was his number one target.
