World Class Players who turned out to be sh*t signings
Category 1: "Top" signings that turn out to be shit.
Category 2: "Average" signings that end up being excellent.
give examples.. for example...consider quality of the player, signing fee and wages and all other circumstances
Category 1: Rush to Juve, Veron to United, Shevchenko to Chelsea, Kaka to Madrid
Category 2: Valencia to United, Garcia to Liverpool, Ivanovic to Chelsea, etc

I put Valencia in the second category.
People laughed at the signing and the fee when he signed (to replace Ronaldo) simply because he was a Wigan player...now look at it , so far turned out to be an excellent signing

If you read the description Category 2 was for players that seemed to be average players at the time but turned out to be excellent signings

Category 2 : Vermaelen to Arsenal, Sagna to Arsenal.

Depends on what you consider world class but Bergkamp was world class then. Yet you have Hleb in category 1 and Bergkamp was better than Hleb.

funny, Sagna is the best RB in the EPL , thats high profile to me. Vermaelen is also one of the best CBs in the league.
Hleb was a great player when he went to Barcelona and flopped hard. Sorry if he wasn't under your category of great player

For Liverpool in recent times:
Category 1:
Robbie Keane - Though not world class was considered one of the best strikers in the league when we signed him.
Category 2:
Gary McAllister
