I will rate the window 90% if we bring in the Brazilian even if we don’t sort out the right back or striker situation.
The thought of Xhaka and Elneny starting or finishing a game just fills me with dread.

If Id been in charge of transfers I would have kept Saliba instead of getting White, sold Xhaka for 15p...I mean £15m offered by Roma and not bought Lokonga for £15m (although looks a good signing). With the £80m available I would ahve gone for Bruno and Bissouma giving us 3 strong midfielders to share game time. No other business would be affected.

Very surprised we didn't go in for Bissouma. With Torreira, Guendouzi and most probably Elneny going, I thought he would be the major signing.

I reckon ACON in Jan was a consideration. With Onana and Bissouma, we would have had six players absent for nearly a month at a crucial period in the season.

Would love Bissouma to be a late deal.
Happy with Ødegaard & Ramsdale. Not such ridiculous figures but we still need to find an XI ready RB & CB to ease a lot of our worries for this season.

Not a chance in hell i would spend 50Mil on Ben White who main weakness is heading which is usually the area where teams demolish us in.
Would have signed - Bissouma / Odegaard / Lokonga and kept Saliba.
With the money saves i would have also got in Aaour and a new GK.

Bissouma would be the dream.
I love White because he is technically good, but Saliba is just as good and would cost us nothing (cos guess what, we've already bought him! For 27m might I add!)
We should have focused on
Bissouma / Bruno (or both)
Odegaard
Buendia
A new first choice GK
