Yeah that was the scary thing about today, still so many big names to come in. No Silva either

All the big guns can say the same thing though. Utd won 5-1 with sancho on the bench, varane still to come in, rashford to come back. We won away 3 nil without robertson, thiago, henderson with fabinho and firmino only on the bench.

The top 4 all have strength in depth. The gulf to the rest is getting bigger all the time.

Yeah pretty much squad complete. I think we lack cover for Rudiger at LCB, no one else can really play there.

Could be short in CM as Kante/Kovacic get injured quite a lot.

That's what £350m in 12 month buys you.

Yes. Just a bit less than £400m does.

Care to compare net spend figures over the last four seasons and come back to us?

There is a reason your club is being investigated and ours isn't....go figure

OP we need another CM. Kante is now picking up injuries quite frequently and with Gilmour on loan we are exposed and whilst Mount can play there, it is a double whammy effect cause it ain't his best position

Seems like Boris doesn't understand how things are supposed to work!

I don't think it's an area of great concern Biggish, to bring another midfielder of any standing that could make a contribution would more likely complicate things.

If we have major injury problems there James and Chalobad can play there and as you've alluded Mount (it's actually his preferred position) can play there!

I think the squad, with the promotion of Chalobah, is quite well balanced as it is!
