    Harald Brattbakk.

    100 appearances for Rosenberg in 3 years and 94 goals, plus a european golden boot award I think as well?!? Ought to have * immense, or so we all thought.

    May as well have been a * golden wellington boot award after we signed him, clueless. Still I suppose he had his moment..

    Juninho, Gravesen, Berkovic, Henchoz, Donati, Hedman, Fernandez and Deeksy come to mind

    For me Gravesen was a dissappointment. Proven at Everton and part of Real Madrid, you'd think the guy would have some positional sense.

    How ppl can say sammy is among the WORST when he came and helped win the league upon arriving is beyond me... Also Ki is a twenty year old kid from the K-League and ppl are writing him off already, great stuff.

    The thing about Rafael Scheidt that really baffles me is after he left Celtic he went back to Brazil and had a really successful career, skippering Corinthians and Botafogo. It just shows how certain players cant settle in other countries

    Gravesen without doubt. By a country mile, in fact. For a professional footballer who has played for Real Madrid to not even be able to follow simple instructions was astonishing.

    gravesen for me aswell

    i think the problem was that he seen himself as an attacking midfielder & his managers wanted him to be a sitting midfielder. im sure thats why he didnt play for real madrid as often as he should have

    Gravesen has still scored more Old Firm goals than Kris Boyd though :icon_mrgreen:

    I completely agree about where he SAW himself playing at Celtic, but he was asked to perform a different role, and seemed to deliberately choose to not do it. Was wholly unprofessional, and * me off no end.

    Brown. Reading through this list brought a tear to my eye & a headbutt to the computer. Is there another club who have wasted more money on more dreadful players than us? It keeps happening over & over again, you'd think someone at Parkhead would learn from past mistakes. We should have a Director of Football or whatever (Jock Brown!). Just someone who can spot a player AND a good deal to oversee the transfers, especially if Lenny gets the job
