Most unsuccessful Wehrmacht General?

Who was the most unsuccessful German General in the Wehrmacht in the Second World War? A name that probably doesn't come to mind is General der Infanterie Georg Thomas. He was one of the key figures when it came to "war economic" (Wehrwirtschaft). He was one of the few officers that are sometimes called "economic professionals" or "logistics guys". Due to the operational minded German Army, he faced a lot of opposition, yet, not only from the regular officers. Thomas was an advocate of "Tiefenrüstung", whereas the operational minded generals favored a "Breitenrüstung" to achieve parity with the enemies as fast as possible.
