3 big signings all failing catastrophically. But of the 3 who is the worst. Imbula.....Started reasonably well, but then lost interest.... 2/10. Berahino...I still pray that he will come good, just need 1 goal to get him going 3/10. Wimmer....Utter garbage....0/10.
Of the 3 Wimmer is by far the worst, a midfielder or striker screwing up does not really cost games, but a defender performing as badly as Wimmer performs each game most certainly does, quite how sitting on the bench for 4 years at Spurs make you turn from a 4 mill to 18 mill player is beyond me. Knee jerk signing and obviously no homework done....
Look at my posting history, I very rarely criticize players, but this guy is bloody awful.

Berahino, how long has it bee since he scored and how much time on the pitch has he had? Does that justify the amount we paid.

Imbula 18million and he's shipped out on loan and can't even be arsed speak to his teammates when he was here.

Wimmer is just about shading it at the moment in the who's who of Hughes's transfer howlers.

So we're giving up on Wimmer, an international and Champions League defender, after half a dozen injury-hit games are we?

For now

Bloody hell.
I think Wimmer has been crap so far but calling him our 'biggest flop' is a joke.
He's only played a handful of games for us!

Never rated Wimmer but I'm pretty sure he's nowhere near being fit/still injured. I'm prepared to give him time.

BMI was far worse than wimmer on Saturday yet somehow there seems to be a reluctance to comment on that.

IF we sold them now what would be their market value
Imbula : 8-10M (8m loss) Berahino : 5-6M (7m loss) Wimmer : 3M (15m loss)
Wimmer was never worth 18M in a month of Sundays considering what Spurs paid for him. What the fuck were we thinking?
At least Imbula & Berahino were bought at the correct market value - its just not worked out with them.
Wimmer is just a shocking signing with a shocking transfer fee

Let's judge Wimmer after a few more months eh? He's not Brek Shea.

Let's judge Wimmer after a few more months eh? He's not Brek Shea. Brek Shea was about 2-3M. I dont expect those kind of signings to always work out. I dont think anyone would be as worried if Wimmer had been bought for like 5-6M. 18M means hes not one for the future. He HAS to be part of the first-team otherwise Hughes looks an idiot if he drops him after 5 games. The fact he was subbed at half-time after a truly awful showing is very worrying. Wimmer should be behind Zouma/Shawcross/BMI/Cameron at CB. Which makes him the most expensive squad filler for a club of our size.

I thought that Wimmer was brought in more for next season than this.
Same as manchester united with the defender they paid 31m for
Due to injuries though he has been forced to play more this season
Whether we could afford this luxury or not is another thing

It’s got to be Imbula - record signing and verified catastrophe that plays for another club but we still pay.
The other two have still got time (although Bera looks to be heading the same way).
Look on the bright side - we’re so rich we don’t even bat an eyelid at a Joselu or Wolfy these days!

Much the same excuses were made for Berahino last season apart from the injured bit of course, Wimmer might turn out to be worth his transfer fee however at the moment he looks like a fish out of water playing PL football. Imbula is a total fuck up of epic proportions how we decided to spunk £18m on him on the strength of a friendly match is mind blowing. Berahino has had a full pre season with us so the still not fit old chestnut has gone out of the window, Hughes appears to have lost any faith he had in him after chasing him for 18 months, and who can blame him !, well the chairman for one £15 m and he couldn't score in a brothel.

He was decent but he more than played his part in the multiple 4 goal drubbings. Seemingly he's Teflon coated and immune from any form of criticism though simply because his arrival spelt the end of Wolschied.

What bothers me about the summer transfer window is that we apparently spent months haggling over Bruno to get the price down, then made a sudden commitment to spend £18 million on a defender who had previously generated no interest in the market.

A proper panic buy this one or bought on a whim by a desperate man.

The Wimmer purchase price was just bizarre. It almost makes me wonder if there was corruption involved.

Write off Wimmer after 4 injury hit games? That's the spirit!!
Biggest flop - Keith Scott. A lot of money for a total donkey, somehow turned magically, like water into wine, into the goal machine that was Mike Sheron!

BMI was far worse than wimmer on Saturday yet somehow there seems to be a reluctance to comment on that. Some get the treatment, some don't. That’s because we know what BMI is capable of and willing to cut him some slack. We have never see a single good performance out of Wimmer.
