If you ignore the Premier League, then there won't be much of a thread! It's clearly Assombalonga. (Edit: I say "clearly" because isn't he the 2nd highest fee into a Championship club... AND he was crap, so surely must represent the worst value)!Ignore the premier league, who is the biggest flop per pound in English football?
My nominee Britt Assombalonga 15mil. Scored some goals, on reflection should have cost about 3 mil maybe.
Marcelino?The Spanish guy Newcastle bought, no idea of his name. Think he broke his finger and never played a game.
I've probably imagined the whole thing mind...
He looked class against us! (went off injured I think)Isaac Mbenza or Benik Afobe to Stoke are worse. Met Mbenza in Brugges on a stag do before he signed for Huddersfield- load of my mates are Huddersfield fans, he told them he was signing and he was class = he was utter crap.
Xisco?The Spanish guy Newcastle bought, no idea of his name. Think he broke his finger and never played a game.

No way was he a better signing than Braithwaite!!Britt scorred an average of 11 a season in a mid table side who didn't create much. Realistically, he was a better signing than either Fletcher and Braithwaite who came in the same season, although yes, he cost more.
I'd put him as a better singing than McCormack for Villa (I think 3 goals in 20 games and cost almost as much) and Carvalho for Forest.
I don't think Britt delivered as much as we'd have wanted for his fee. But he's probably the most consistent goalscorer we've had at any level for a long time.
Yeah, himMarcelino?
