During the 2013/14 season, Liverpool strikers Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge posed a great threat to opponents' goals, and the "Reds" were just a step away from achieving their dream - the Premier League gold.
However, soon the striking duo disappeared and Brendan Rodgers' coached club once again plunged into unsuccessful searches for new talents.
The result - one of the most tragic purchases in the club's history. Italian Mario Balotelli, costing 20 million euros, managed to score only one goal during the season.
Even earlier, Liverpool bought Andy Carroll for 41 million euros, who scored a total of 6 goals (price per accurate shot - 6.8 million euros), Fabio Borini (goal price - 6.6 million euros), Rickie Lambert (goal price - 2.75 million euros), and other snipers who lost their scoring touch.
One of the most successful purchases since the departure of Fernando Torres can be named David N'Gog, who managed to score 9 times.
