Summer Transfer Window 2019

[Timhowardsswearbox]

We are weaker at centre half and weaker on the wing.
To improve you need to improve in all positions..

How are we weaker on the wing? Surely you can’t mean Lookman, given that he did basically nothing of note last season.

 

[Number_25]

Whooo positive net spend and one or 2 injuries in certain areas (wide and CB) and we are royally effed.

Bolasie and Mirallas can play RW.

 

[Billy Dean]

Can Sidibe play CB?

Centre Back was the vital position.

Everyone knew it when Zouma returned. Big mistake.

Perhaps Lewis Gibson can step up in the event we lose Keane, Mina or Holgate.

Gbamin can play there. According to his agent it's his best position

 

[Dutch Toffee]

Not saying this window was a disaster, or that I'm not happy with the business that got done, but can't deny I'm a bit dissapointed with the end to it. Believe we might have missed a giant opportunity to get right in the faces of the top 6. Our first 11 looks very good tbh, but fear there's not enough strength in depth to keep up with the big boys for a whole season.

 

[efcste97]

Really really really really can't be arsed watching Walcott when Bernard or Richarlison get injured.

 

[zzr45]

When did Zouma get announced last year? Like 9pm wasn’t it?

I’ve got faith still. Somehow.

 

[Toffee-nerd]

Behave lad. The club are constantly going on about ambition and European football and here we are scraping around for a loan CB. If the club offered what CP wanted earlier in the window, then we would of got him.

Yet the CB the club wanted this window was based on having him on loan last season. If the player is the right player doesnt matter if hes a loan, free or permanent. I'm not happy with cb but none of us know what's gone on with zouma.

Maybe we didnt value zaha at 80 million and were unwilling to go that high? Fact is it's all speculation. We didn't get him, 71% of the forum thought he was overrated or on the fence with him but still heads are falling off everywhere. Our season is over because we didnt get a player fans didnt want.

The clubs been undone by it's own good work, had we gone into today with nothing and come out with gomes, kean, gbamin, sidibe, delph signed I think it would be a different outcome on here tonight.

Exactly. Why leaving everything so late? Again.

 

[Saint Domingo]

He is not a PL standard CB that’s the point. I hope I am wrong.

I think Holgate could be. Played very well at times in 17/18. Nothing wrong with giving him opportunities in a settled defence next to a senior centreback.

City have three senior centrebacks on their books with Kompany now gone yet I doubt they are in meltdown about it.

Day after it was

 

[Paul Rideout]

We have not improved our options on the wing . We lost a player who we used on the wing and have not replaced him.

How many minutes did he play total last season.

I mean we’re not stronger but we’re hardly weaker. Fml DCL could produce as much out wide

 

[MACCA75]

This isn't true. Spent €89.5m, sold €67m

We ain’t finished selling yet, and i’m not sure about those figures

 

[tim cahill]

I’ve got faith still. Somehow.

His name was mentioned all day though.

 

[windymiller]

We’re not weaker on the wing.

The window isn’t closed yet

If it does close like this - we’re weaker at CB assuming Mina Gibson or Holgate don’t step up

We’re way stronger up front

How are we not weaker on the wing? We have the same players as last year minus Lookman.

Young Theo is gonna have his breakout season this year
