Which player has been football's BEST buy EVER?

can we at least have some fresh ideas sportingo? or is that beyond you?

for me its kolo toure wat a bargain. so consistent over the years

Kevin Doyle £70k and Im not even a Reading fan.

Henrik Larson for the mhanky mob has to go down as one of the greatest buys of all time, shame about the £1M pay off to stay an extra year at the end.

i cannot make my mind up between Ralph Milne ,Eric DJEMBA DJEMBA OR Taibi THERE has been so many MISTAKES i mean BARGAINS that SIR ALEX could NOT TURN DOWN, OH BEFORE I FORGET david bellion

£4 Million - Marlon Harewood to Aston Villa.

Just bcos spurs arent having a good season and these players arent playing so well doesnt mean that they should not be considered!!! Robbo - A bargain from leeds at what 2mil? Lennon - Another bargain from leads and a world class winger in the making again around 2 mill? Robbie Keane! - 7mill at teh time seemed a fair price but looking backl what a bargain!! Keano is the greatest 2nd top scorer with the team thats 16th! And one for the future Gareth Bale- 5mil now 5 mil l8r ok 10 mil is alot but this guy is sh*t hot absolute wonder kid any team in the country would love him and welcome him with open arms!

£12m to anywhere will be the best transfer ever!!

chris samba £400,000 or ryan nelsen for freeeeee and as for barry scott cilit bang be gone with u if u dont like stay away

He may be a legend at Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, Spurs or Manchester United - or perhaps he plays for "less successful" clubs Newcastle, Aston Villa, Everton, Celtic, Rangers, Manchester City, West Ham or Blackburn. We want YOUR final choice.

I'd have to say Toure for 150k in the current transfer market is about as good as you can get. I'd say Cesc equalls that but he wsnt paid for so he wasnt really a buy, more of a find. Samba and Nelson would be up their, as would Cahill but actually on second thoughts it wpuld have to be Darren Bent!

Has to be Nicolas Anelka - bought by arsene Wenger for 500,000 and sold less than thirty months later for 22.3 million. In between he helped Arsenal win The Double

for me it's Viera. He was instrumental to their success and was less than a million.

The claim that Aaron Lennon is a world class winger is probably the funniest thing i have ever heard in my life, however i do agree he was a bit of a bargain, but he does not come anywhere near world class. 2 mill for Robbo is a bargain for the good years he had at you, but look at him now! Keane is a fantastic player but 7mill is not a bargain for him & Gareth Bale definitely shows alot fo potentially and is a great player for his age but 10mill is hardly a bargain for him and can barely be justified as even a fair price. As long as he stays fit though I think he will fufill his £10mill price tag. You Spurs fans are SO-BLOODY-DELIRIOUS its untrue!!!!!!!!!!

Paul Mcgrath. Man Utd to Villa. Thanks Alex.

It has to be Henrik Larsson for the Bhoys,what a bargain,the Huns must have been glad to see the back of him.

David Weir

If this is the best ever bought worldwide then it has to be Maradona for Napoli. They were a half decent team but he made them into Italian and european champions.

There is not another Club in the world more successful than Rangers. Check your facts.

Clattenburg cost us nothing and gas got us more points than stevie g

Agree with Paul McGrath to Villa and just about every Arsene Wenger signing (apart from franny Jeffers), but can't believe no ones mentioned Cantona or Schmeichel! Man Utd wouldn't be the team they are today without them.

Vieira wasn't under a million? he cost £3.5 from Milan although that's still great business. Cantona @ £1m from Leeds, Anelka @ £500k just for the profit the scum made on him, but as a Spurs fan it has to be Jimmy Greaves @ £99,999 from Milan

Bennis Bergkamp. 10 times the player Larsson ever was

michael mifsud coventry... scored two away goals against man utd at old trafford and top scorer for coventry at the league...

Brad Friedal Years of consistantly brilliant goal keeping all for free!! Since he arrived at Ewood, a promotion to the Premiership, a trophy (Worthington Cup 2002) and 4 visits to Europe in 8 years. Consistantly amongst the Premierships top keepers

Really hate to say it but Henrik Larrson has got to be the best buy ever and as a Rangers fan it shows how much quality the boy had for us to think he has possibley been the greatest player to play in the Scottish premier League
