10 Biggest 'One Season Wonders' In The Premier League

10. Robinho

Manchester City's takeover by Sheikh Mansour in 2008 was marked by an influx of superstars, none more so than Robinho. The Brazilian winger was signed for a then-record fee and came out fairly valuable for the price. Or so did the club think initially.

He struck 14 times in the 2008/09 season from 31 appearances, including an awe-inspiring free-kick against Chelsea on his debut.

Robinho was touted to lead the Sky Blues to even greater heights the next season, but an unfortunate injury and dramatic fall from grace later upon returning, spelled the end of his time at the Etihad.

Without a single goal in 10 appearances, he was loaned to Santos but returned to Europe after signing for AC Milan in 2010, where he rediscovered his touch once more.
