Isn't it all about the performance? Everyone is raving about one man. Of course , bojan was electric , but crouch and Walters did the business as well I aren't suggesting they aren't but.....never mind.

Best signings or most important signings are all pretty much the same for varying reasons.. Shawcross, Fuller, Rory,Hendrie, Begovic etc but for me the most important are Shawcross & Whelan for the reasons that they were signed when we were a progressing Championship team and they are the only pair to stand the test of time and still be 1st team members today..
The worst signing for me has to be Paul Williams.. He was a shocker. Closely followed by Sonko and Perricard

Why start another Pulis thread ? We all know where it will end. Why not start a Hughes best/worst signing,that's more relevant surely ? Not a Pulis thread, it's a Pulls thread

I would guess the Dean Whitehead blind spot is is a fairly similar confition to the Jon Walters blind-spot and shared by similar folk ! Whitehead blind spot very good , best has to be Ryan or Bego value for money/potential resale value, worst Kitson, Collins, Arismendi, Brek Shea, Ness, Edu, Palacios, Carew, Gudjohnson, Oily Vagina, Owen and for the money Dean Whitehead.

Best Signing - Has to be Shawcross, £1million for a player who has gone on to play 300 games for us, become our reliable captain fantastic and become the best English centre half around. Special mentions for Crossley, Akinfenwa, Taggart, Higgy x2, Delap, Fuller, Beattie, Ethers, Huth, Bego, SJW and N Zonzi.
Worst Signing - For me, it has to be Danny Collins, what a pile of wank he was! Mind you Palacios, Diao, Tonge, Soares, Gudjohnsen, that Jamaican lad (Phillips?) and Shea cannot be far off.

Demar Phillips. Signed by Pulis by Fuller's recommendation. Played 2 games. And when we tried to send him to Oldham they couldn't get a work permit for the bugger, so we were stuck with him till Jan 09 window.

Demar Phillips wasn't signed by Pulis on Fullers recommendation at all, it was Bayerns.

Best in terms of value for money is Shawcross.
Most needed at a point in time is probably Beattie or crossley
Most talented is probably Begovic
Worst waste of money is Palacios
Least impact, several spring to mind, but arismendi or amoebi spring to mind
Least talented, Pericard is the most obvious.
In other words there are several depending on your definition of best and worst

Best - Shawcross
Worst - Kitson. Huge money and hadn't a clue how to use him.

Woodgate was a painful memory. Very painful especially as a full back WTF was that about, another centre half shoehorned into wherever, Pulis could not resist a big name signing no matter how wank or over the hill they were.

James Beattie has to be up there. I think we probably would of gotten relegated were it not for him.

Best for me has to be Walters. He gets slagged off as not being good enough but when he plays never let's us down.Worst has to be Palasios (sorry about the spelling!) Total waste of money!! £35 grand a week for the total sum of Fuck all!!???? I agree gets to much stick

No disrespect but anyone who thinks Walters is Pulis best signing in 10 years is seriously deluded. He started off great, then was poor FOR 2 WHOLE YEARS, was average last season and excellent this season, so how does that qualify as his best signing? He got slagged off when he was poor, it's that simple. He couldn't score, pass, beat a man or anything but now HE CAN DO ALL THAT, too inconsistent to be the best signing, easily Shawcross.

Like all managers, he made some great, good, average and down right rank signings.
The issue is the money spent - we are paying for that now. Anyone who says otherwise is deluding himself.
