Rating: £60,000

Having played well at Euro 2012, West Ham picked up a bargain from Marseille, spending just £2m on the holding midfielder. Sadly, they also decided to take on his £60k wages, and watched as he got injured and lost form, and played just 6 times for the club before his contract was cancelled with a year still to run.
