Ander Herrera
Cost: £29m
Rating: 6/10
Cultured midfielder has flattered to deceive thus far and his price-tag is beginning to look excessive.
Marcos Rojo
Cost: £16m
Rating: 7/10
Started shakily but has improved in Man United’s recent good fun of wins.
Angel Di Maria
Cost: £59m
Rating: 9/10
Argentine may have cost a British record fee but has already shown just how capable he is in the English top tier with six assists and three goals in his first 11 Premier League starts.
Luke Shaw
Cost: £27m
Rating: 6/10
Struggled with form and fitness and looks pricey.
Daley Blind
Cost: £14m
Rating 7/10
Strong midfield presence and prior to being sidelined with injury was beginning to grow into his role in the centre of the park.
Radamel Falcao
Cost: Loan
Rating: 6/10
Louis van Gaal was wise to bring in the Colombian on loan as he is clearly not firing on all cylinders and not match fit.
Rickie Lambert
Cost: £4m
Rating: 6/10
Southampton man has racked up one Premier League goal and his rating would be far lower if not for the fact he didn’t cost Brendan Rodgers all that much.
Adam Lallana
Cost: £29m
Rating: 6/10
Southampton man is a shadow of the player that impressed last season but has begun to show signs of improvement.
Emre Can
Cost: £9.75m
Rating: 6/10
The German may be a hot prospect but his form has been patchy when called upon this term.
Lazar Markovic
Cost: £19.8m
Rating: 6/10
Youngster occasionally shows good touches and has the raw talent to suggest a strong future but Brendan Rodgers may well have overpaid for the Serbian.
Dejan Lovren
Cost: £20m
Rating 5/10
Croatian has been woeful and as a result has been rightly dropped by Brendan Rodgers.
Alberto Moreno
Cost: £12m
Rating: 7/10
Spaniard has been the pick of a bad bunch in terms of summer signings but not by massive margin.
Mario Balotelli
Cost: £16m
Rating: 3/10
Still without a Premier League goal but his attitude is in many ways a far more worrying a concern for Rodgers. A January sale is advisable!
