3. Mario Balotelli

This one was always a gamble; even Rodgers stated that when he signed Balotelli and if one thing can be proven is that Balotelli has contributed to the Liverpool cause, not by scoring and creating goals but by being their best bet on social media handles. He has done more for Liverpool on Instagram and Facebook than on the pitch but Liverpool did not have to pay £16 million for a social media handler.

2. Yaya Toure

Cake, off season was all about Cake and Toure. Yaya seemed miffed that Manchester City missed out on his birthday that he was willing to move away from the club but cue a few months later and obviously a ton of apology cakes, it hasn’t really done much for Toure. He has had an average season and some of his performances have been frustrating for Manchester City. We wouldn’t be surprised to see Toure leave the club or be sold by the club at the end of this season.

1. Radamel Falcao

One of the most expensive players, at least in terms of wages, it isn’t all Falcao’s fault for his inability to click after such a major injury but the Colombian should have spent a little more time recuperating rather than trying hard to get into the flight for Brazil 2014. Signing for United on loan might have been a good move initially but he has not been able to hit his high notes and has only scored 4 goals for United this season, surely not the way both parties expected this season to go.
