Robert Snodgrass - Norwich
The sale that made Leeds fans weep. Not just that their captain and arguably best player was sold, but more that it was the continuation of a theme. If Arsenal fans are frustrated that they allow their best players to run their contracts down to such an extent that the club are over something of a barrel when buyers come calling, their Leeds counterparts must spend 90% of the time punching themselves in the face with frustration. Norwich have taken full advantage of this, firstly bagging Jonny Howson in January, and now snagging Snodgrass for the relatively cheap price of ?3million.

Snodgrass is an interesting player, in that if he had any sort of pace he would probably have made the step up to the Premier League before now. He has a wand of a left-foot and can play right, left or in the middle in a 4-2-3-1, but one fears about his temperament. On more than one occasion last season, when things weren't going well for Leeds, Snodgrass took to roaming the pitch looking for someone to kick. In a season that many suspect Norwich will find much more difficult than last, one wonders how he will react to such situations again.
