Which player, signed last summer or later, has proved the division's buy of the season? Bridge, the PIG or Ulloah have probably been ours but what about the rest of the league? Cardiff have romped away with it, but haven't most of them been there since last season?

I'd assume Watford's Vydra (or whatever his name is) is going to be hard to beat...

If you'd asked them four months ago, Palace might have said Bolasie, but since Christmas, he's been about as much use as a Woolworth's gift voucher.

Gayle at Posh has been getting some good reviews

Elmohamedy at Hull was frighteningly good against us I thought

Elmohamady for Hull would probably be up there. Think they signed him this season?

A few of those mentioned sparkled when they signed for their new clubs, then faded- Bolasie, Craig Noone, Chris Wood spring to mind.

As opposed to Wilfried Zaha, who signed for another club and then became crap.

I think Vydra is one of Watford's many loan players, so not strictly a "buy"

I believe it was made permanent in January. I could be wrong, though.

I think you're wrong. Forestieri was signed permanently.

Wrong. He is still a loan.

Technically Cardiff signed Bellamy at the start of the season. He'd be up there.

Murray signed for the Shit in May 2011 so doesn't count.

I believe I'm in the minority on here at not rating Chris Wood and being very glad that he went elsewhere.
