Post transfer window discussion: Rate the Transfer Window

We can all agree that the best of business was keeping hold of naismith

Was keeping Stones a good? Obviously. But our success as a club should not be based on whether we sold our players or not.

We HAD to bring in an playmaker that could provide the creativity/passing finesse that we so badly need. We did not do that.

We did bring in cover for other positions that we needed, so for that reason it's a 5.

8/10 - Based on holding on to Stones.

8/10 based on our star CB asking to leave and us saying no? Generous.

5.

This window was a dissapointment but
I gave 7 because of few very smart deals. Young lads with huge potential.

 

[ilikecheese]

Its as sad day when we believe a good transfer window is we didn't sell anyone of importance to the team.

Sorry mate. The Stones saga is different. Very proud of the club for giving Chelsea two fingers. It is a huge win.

Said this before but the absence of a negative (losing John Stones) is not a positive.

It's great that he's an Everton player this season but he already was. We had him, and now we still have him. There is no net improvement.

5. Stones saga was a good win but the manager failed to deliver on key promises and hasn't fixed problems he's had three months to fix.

4 as I said in the big thread all very nice giving players new contracts and not selling players, but with the new TV deal coming up we have no need to sell. Made up we've got Deulofeu, okay we got Cleverley but we knew that would happen. Have no opinion on Henen, Holgate or Rodriguez at all. Mori, well we shall wait and see.

Everyone, literally everyone including the manager himself identified that we needed at least 3 new quality players in 3 separate positions, not because we were low on squad numbers but because we need to up the quality of the match squad as a whole and get that imperative link between the midfield and the striker. We haven't done that and it's desperately needed. Hopefully Barkley can step up to the challenge.

Have we really given Chelsea the two fingers when he will end up playing at Chelsea or another big club this time next year?

 

[Pienaar's gloves]

Poor.
We needed a centre half, playmaker and striker.

We got one of the three.

One winger would have been useful, yet we bought two.

 

[ijjysmith]

If Deulofeu had signed for £23m today you'd all be saying 10 you horrendous Jim Whites.

 

[Paul_1878]

If we look at things positively.
We have signed two England internationals one Spanish international one Argentine international and a future Uruguay international.
Im trying

Absolutely.

6 for me.
We missed out on a flair player with a bit of craft. but did well with our other signings.
