Surprised no-one has owned up to Bentley yet, there was a major clamour to sign him.
Can't really remember to many flops that I've wanted (most of the ones I've wanted to sign did sign, and we discovered they were shit whilst they were playing for us). I suppose Rivaldo might qualify, because although he was one in of the best in the world at one point, he didn't do much after we tried to sign him.
I was convinced Stephen Schumacher would make it, thought Billy Sharpe might be worth a punt (he might still make it at a higher level...), Patrick Kluivert who turned out to be utter shit at Newcastle....

There it is! Bentley. He's one of mine.
Still think he's good...
[/quote]
Where is he now ?

With big sam I think.
He's got talent in spades, just thick as 2 fat planks

Oh, right.
I honestly had no idea where, or if, he was actually playing.
There's no doubt he's talented.
There's also no doubt he has demonstrated a massively high opinion of himself.
Bit like Bendtner.
(But without the talented bit).

Actually i didn't want him badly. I just said he would be a better signing at whatever price he was eventually sold than Downing for 20m. Looks like he is set to prove me wrong even then...I would have preferred we bought someone who wasn't already playing in the Premiership and proven to be an average player.

Well, turn back to page 3 of the thread and you'll see I put my hand up for him days ago.

I was also of the Bently persuasion, though I argued I'd like him converted into a deeper lying midfielder rather than a winger.

I really wanted us to sign Totti some years ago. I always thought that would be a dream signing....
But judging how Italians have been with us, I guess we would have been left dissapointed!

Keirrison. Signed for Barcelona about 3 years ago, and I was gutted - though he'd be the dogs bollocks. He's never played a single game for then, and has been loaned out to Benfica, Fiorentina and now back in Brazil on loan at Cruzeiro having not played brilliantly at any of them.
Milan Baros, I saw him when he was 16 or 17 in the milk cup I think and thought he was super. I was delighted when he signed but he just didn't turn out to be particularly good for us.
Where are all the Quaresma fanatics, I distinctly remember several people wanting the useless stepover queen.

Mine has to be Julio "The Beast" Baptista.
I thought he'd be great for us after watching him smash 60 goals in for Sevilla. He was harshly treated at Real Madrid initially (as he wasn't overly fashionable) but when he got the opportunity at Arsenal he looked absolutely lost. A good player but didn't develop into the star I thought he could be and perhaps unsuited to the league.
As for Joaquin, I'd still have had him with the benefit of hindsight. Even with the smoking habit and dodgy attitude he'd have been a good wide option for us consider the alternatives we've tried out there in the last five years.

Like Arshavin, Baptista saved his goal-scoring for us.
The cunt.

Yeah, the game when we got destroyed by Arsenal's "kids", despite our team being younger.
