Though it may be sacrilegious to some Manchester United fans, not all of the clubs transfer woes have come since the club fell into a gradual decline in the last decade. After all, despite being renowned for his recruitment, even Sir Alex wasn't averse to a few misses in his time, including famously signing Bebe despite never having actually seen the Portuguese midfielder play.

However, Chilean Alexis Sanchez pips Bebe to the post based on his incredibly high wages, coupled with higher expectations. Sanchez was expected to become a legend at Old Trafford but failed to find the form that had seen him be recognised as one of the world's elite during his time at Arsenal and looks set to leave the club this summer after spending time on loan at Inter Milan.
