Signed a LB no one has ever heard of, a midget who got dominated by Che Adams, a health risk, an over-the-hill 'steady Eddie' who is only here for the payday and some overhyped overpriced showboater.
And as if spending months chasing someone who didn't want to join wasn't bad enough, they're now focusing attention on some backup keeper to be mates with donny on the bench.
Time to go jump off a bridge.
A backup keeper, 3 players from the Eredivisie and two old boys.
7.5 is generous especially if you take into account the manner the window has been conducted. Unlucky not to get De Jong but allowed the club to be made a fool of by not giving a deadline and moving on earlier. Lucked out in failing to agree terms with Rabiot and not following through with a second bid for Arnautovic after the backlash.
I think you sign one more, went for Arnautovic suggests you were looking for a centre forward but none have arrived...

Just another chancer journo, covering all the bases.
I'll give a 6 at the moment, shift another one or two hangers on and sign a striker and that could go to 7 if he's good.

I'm not going to comment on the prices we've paid but in terms of the gaps we've filled, it's been good. A lot of it will depend upon what Casemiro delivers. Ideally, it will free the other midfielders to be much more creative. The only missing piece for me is that we're left hving to choose between a RB who is useless going forward and one who's useless at the back!
The replacement striker was only needed if CR7 was to leave. I think that's one that will be for next summer. If CR7 stays, he'll be 100% professional, though there may be games that don't suit him.
I don't think ETH could be expected to achieve his perfect squad in one window. Rome wasn't built in a day. Next summer, I can see a new GK (or possibly a proven DH returning from Forest) a new striker and a RB.
8/10 for me in terms of the players signed. Probably 6/10 in the way we have gone about it, but that's without having a clue about what has really gone on.

No not even close to 10/10. We over paid a lot. We got them in late and that cost is our first 2 games. We still need a striker and right back and top class central midfielder that can dictate. Without a dictator we can’t really play ten hag football properly
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Why do you care so much that we overpaid when we have owners who haven’t invested a dime and take £20m out of the club every year? Why does the price tag matter at all?
"No more incoming" is exactly what I'd say if there were further incomings that I didn't want anyone to know about.
