Didi Hamann at MK Dons.
Did he really play for them?
- Thread starter R.N7
- Start date
Quaresma at Chelsea? Totally missed that...
Bastian fecking Schweinsteiger
Matic at Chelsea...first time around.
Wilshere at Bolton!
Chygrynsky and Rustu at Barca and Figo at Inter.
Batistuta at Inter.
Socrates at Garforth Town
Gazza at Boston United
Gennaro Gattuso for Rangers
basically Balotelli then
Not really. Inter is renowned of giving some real gems to AC Milan in exchange for less talented players. The classic exchange of the Baresi brothers (Franco and Beppe). The exchange of Pirlo and Giullimpietro, the exchange between Coco and Seedorf etc. Eventually they stopped doing it and focused in strengthening other clubs instead. For example they gave Juventus Cannavaro for Carini. TBF Inter are renowned for such deals. Its a shame we haven't yet noticed such trait. I wouldn't mind us getting Icardi in straight swap with Valdes
Saviola at Real
Not a player but this was fecking weird at the time
which was swiftly followed by this
Michael Ricketts apparently played for England
as did Francis Jeffers
Edgar Davids for the mighty Barnet

Bergkamp at Inter.
Batistuta for Al Arabi

Madrid have had a few weird ones
They had a period around 2006-2010 when they had some very questionable signings.
Lassana Diarra at Real Madrid
Christoph Metzelder at Real Madrid.
Lassana Diarra at Arsenal.
Keep forgetting Christian Poulsen at 'Pool.
I keep trying to forget that, thanks.
I remember Campbell playing for Arsenal but certainly not him coming back after 4 years at Pompey and Notts County, in 2010.
Oh god! Any Liverpool fan who tries to compare whats going on now to those days really has no clueYou had some really erm... interesting signings around that time.
No chance. Got one for Celtic alright.
Pretty much. Di Stefano looks like he's thinking "Who are you and why are you here?"Quaresma at Chelsea and Batistuta at Inter are good shouts, had completely erased those from my memory.

Ah yeah, you're right.
Here's Yaya Toure in his only game for Arsenal
Completely forgot about this!
Albert Luque at Newcastle
Emre at Newcastle
Kluivert at Newcastle
Pongol at liverpool
Baros at Aston Villa
(one for the future) Cambiasso at Leicester
Campo at Bolton
Christophe Dugarry at Birmingham
That's disturbing, genuinely gave me chills. I also couldn't work out if it was Arteta or Baros for the longest time.
Seedorf at Inter
Becks at PSG
Kluivert at Valencia
Silva at Celta
Henry at Juventus
Jamie fecking Vardy on the NT
Adel Taarabt, QPR.

Jordi Cruyff at Man Utd
He then played for Metallurg Donetsk in Ukraine!
I'm loving this thread, but some of them seem a bit silly. Ronaldo was a god at Barcelona, Deco was (occasionally) brilliant and definitely memorable at Chelsea, Figo was at Inter for ages, Taarabt played over 150(!) games for QPR, Aquilani was a very famous flop at Liverpool...
Hilarious how often Saha, Eto'o, Robbie Keane and Saviola seem to pop up though.

This one springs to mind. Scouse bastard.
Definitely this.Christophe Dugarry at Birmingham
