Now Ciro Immobile wasn't as incredible for Juventus as he has been since, especially for Lazio. In fact, he only played three games for the Old Lady, but there can be no dispute that he's gone on to become a world class striker.

No, this is more about the player they decided was going to fill in the goal glut at Juventus. That's right, it's the self-appointed best striker in football, Nicklas Bendtner.

The sight of the big Dane pulling on those iconic black and white stripes was confusing for any football fan who'd seen him play for Arsenal, but his goal return was less surprising.

9 games. 0 goals. Gone by Christmas.
