Fernando Torres: The poster boy for deadline day flops?

With the transfer deadline fast approaching, clubs scramble to complete deals and things can get pretty chaotic to say the least.

With teams holding out for the best possible deal transfers often go down to the wire. Meanwhile, others push the panic button and make a purchase in haste which can be a recipe for disaster.

Fernando Torres is something of a poster boy for deadline day signings that failed dramatically after his £50 million move from Liverpool to Chelsea in 2011 resulted in the Spaniard scoring just 45 times in 172 appearance for the Londoners.

However, there are several other deadline day recruits who crashed and burned and here, we take a look at 10 of the worst.

Which transfer do you think was the worst out of our top ten?
