Anderson
The Brazilian signed from Porto in the summer of 2007 for almost £20million, with Manchester United confident they had finally replaced legendary captain Roy Keane.
However, Anderson was nowhere near in the same league as Keane, and although he won plenty during his career at Old Trafford, he didn’t contribute anywhere near as much as those at the club had predicted or hoped.
It took a long old time for the club to eventually get him and his excessive wages off the books as well, with van Gaal only managing to flog him back to Brazil this year.
