Top Four Worst Buys In EPL (2013) Including Manchester United And Chelsea Stars

 The last year was certainly transfer-full, as two big stars, Neymar and Bale, moved clubs, breaking record transfer fees. There were various moves and many of them will remain in our memories, not for their success but failure. While some clubs‘ supporters glorify their new signings, others would willingly forget about them. Here are top four worst buys in the English Premier League over the last year:

4. Marouane Fellaini | Everton to Manchester United

Perhaps this season’s biggest flop, who after as sensational move following David Moyes to the Red Devils has totally disappeared. From a first-plan Premier League player, the Belgian had become a back-up to United’s first team, playing only four full 90-minute matches this season in 11 appearances. To make things even worse the 26-year-old is set to undergo a wrist surgery, as a result would be out for another 2 months. Fellaini must find form after his recovery if he doesn’t want to leave the Old Trafford in summer.

3. Andre Schurrle | Bayer Leverkusen to Chelsea

The German youth international was said to be Jose Mourinho’s sensational transfer move last summer, however the 23-year-old forward will not become the new Didier Drogba under the Special One’s wings. It was another striker the Blues failed to develop and now Roman Abramovich is forced to splash the cash on a new goal-scorer. Schurrle’s future is doubtful at the moment, however as long as Mourinho remains Chelsea’s manager the player is likely to find a place in the first team. The ex-Leverkusen footballer might have been a flop until the halfpoint of this season but if he manages to gather momentum he could become a new star at the Stamford Bridge.

2. Wilfried Zaha | Crystal Palace to Manchester United

Zaha was Premier League’s number one starlet last season and after moving to Manchester United this season, his talents has been totally wasted and development stopped. The Red Devils had spent millionson him just to leave the young Englishman sidelined and it would have been better for Zaha to extend his stay at Crystal Palace, as a result play first-team matches in the Premier League. The 20-year-old winger should leave Manchester this January on loan in search of minutes on the pitch.

1. Demba Ba | Newcastle United to Chelsea

Bought in the January market, as a goal-scoring Newcastle striker to replace  out of form Spaniard Fernando Torres in Chelsea’s starting eleven. However the Senegalese had managed only to score twice in the Premier League since arriving at Stamford Bridge, while this season has found the net once. It seems the Blues will want to offload unwanted Ba after one-year service at the club this transfer window, in order to get money for their January spending.
