I'll start it off.

Probably recency bias but for me it has to be Timo Werner for his lack of positional since, first touch and ability to pass it 10 yards (and combined transfer fees totaling nearly €100mil) top it for me.

God knows how he scored so many in Germany. I can only assume he played against teams with crippled defenders and goal keeper that looks suspiciously like Herr Collins...

In a CCFC shirt?

Probably that time Julien Dacosta was let loose somewhere on the right of defence

Max Biamou constantly getting in Goddens way when Godden was trying to make runs. I know he’s a ‘cult hero’ but he had no positional sense. The championship was a couple of steps too far

I thought he played very well against us away at Hull. Yes missed that great chance before half time but had a good game .

Palmer rarely looked like he could last longer than an hour in any game, playing well or not.

Ain't having this. He has the same number of goals and assists in his only season in the Championship as BTA did last year, one less than Simms.
He was a major contributer to our survival in our first season back.
Shame he wasn't a few years younger when we signed him.

Has anyone mentioned Aaron Connolly who came on for Sunderland at the SoL? He really looked like he'd won a competition.

Surprised they didn't let him score on purpose like some previous 'stunning' goals in those shitshows

Thinking home game more, which was pure ineptitude, but didn't specify so the sitters could be included in the general comedy.

Collins Vs

Southampton
Hull
Ipswich
QPR

Portsmouth
Sunderland
Burnley
Plymouth
Luton

(Just off the top of my head)

All worse than any of Moore's performances.

I think Moore at Hull, where he gifted their player the easiest hattrick he'll ever score, was as bad as Collins.

The biggest difference between the two is that we had an OK alternative in place for Moore and he could be quickly dropped, so there are fewer screw ups to remember. At times this season we had no alternative to Collins other than an untesred U21.
