Are there any others that rival the waste of cash this 'free' transfer has become?!
I can't think of any off the top off my head.

He started off pretty well for the Arse when they signed him.. But kinda fizzled out as the season went on..
He's been shite ever since..

Who was that player Chelsea got and sat on the bench for his entire contract.
Cole? Yep.
Fixed...etc....
Bellamy and Maxi are the only ones out of that lot I look back upon fondly.
Degan in particular was an abomination of a footballer......
Meh - Ok Grudgingly. He scored a beauty against the scummers I think
When he wasn't injured, he did his job well. Nothing special, mind, but not a complete retard like the rest of the guys you listed.
Yes, yes he did, and another against the Chavs, so ssssssssh !
Duly Shhhhhed...

Ha ha no I mean for Chelsea. It was maybe 10 years ago now.
That's what I meant 😉
Cole was excellant for Chelsea for the most part 🙂
You might think that Cole has led a charmed life but imagine actually being him. You'd think The Truman Show was some sort of ironic clue as to how your life had been set up. You'd be constantly expecting someone to pull back the curtain and scream 'hahaha you talentless cunt, it's all been a lie, smile for the fucking camera you shit eating dwarf.'
That's the boy. He didn't start the first few games so was like fuck I'll train with the reserves and pick up my big cheque every week thanks lads.
Ah yeah, that could be up there with this burning of cash.
Easily my favourite ever Chelsea player.
" I may be one of the worst buys in the history of the Premiership but I don't care"
Mine too - 9 appearences in 4 years @ reportedly £40,000 a week. Rather wonderfully - Chelsea won the FA cup I think during this time triggering a bonus payment in agreement with his contract, despite Bogarde not featuring at all for Chelsea that season 😀
Happily playing with the under 12 team, like a Jimmy Saville wannabe.
He did a lot of bench warming too, to be fair.
