There are always those players we build up when they've been signed but they turn out to be a disappointment.
Nearly every team in the Scottish Premiership made such a signing, some teams more than one. Scroll through to see those players who were signed but ultimately didn't live up to the billing.

The Irish international had cultivated a good career in England but didn't quite get to grip with the pace of the Scottish Premiership.
After an excellent first half of the season at Kilmarnock the forward switched to Aberdeen and his form regressed hugely.
Arrived from Borussia Dortmund in a position that needed strengthening but disappointed and frustrated fans.
Brilliant for Kilmarnock last season, was signed late in the window but never got close to making his mark at Parkhead.
Dundee bought the player from Hearts but set the tone of the season with an egregious mistake in the league opener. Lost his place soon after.
Signed to bolster the club's defence but didn't play a game after breaking his foot. Twice.
The striker arrived on loan from Norwich City but never looked comfortable on the pitch in the Scottish top flight, playing just a handful of times.
His mid-season arrival was hyped up. Within a couple of outings Craig Levein was critical of the player's fitness and barely seen.
The Australian international was expected to rekindle his impressive partnership with Florian Kamberi but injuries didn't help and struggled before leaving during the campaign.
