    Praying for a Peter Lawwell midlife crisis. I like it.

    I have a really bad feeling that the Taylor talks are going to break down. Im praying this isn't the case though. Be great if Big Vic came back, dont think he will be too pleased about Forster stealing his number :dancing:

    I think our transfer business this window and last summer has been excellent. We've shown we're willing to pay a large amount for the right player.

    I would like to see Wanyama, Meling or Benkovic also but won't be too disappointed if we don't manage to capture them.

    All in all, we're coming out of this window stronger than we went in.

    Christ imagine we still had KT

    Elhamed....Ajer....Julien....KT

    That would be solid.

    Been OK. 6/10

    The defensive players could turn out OK, but it's still early days. Julien could be the jewel. Think Taylor weakens our defence personally, don't rate him at all.

    Only real exciting one for me is Elynoussi, hope he sees a lot of game time.

    Hoping Rogic returns to form, and would like to see more of Bayo, Griff, Schved.

    DM still a worry for me. Wanyama would be a dream, but we won't so that.

    Outgoings is a total disaster, we can't get rid of any of the dross, and the whole Sinclair thing is laughable.

    1/10

    We have shipped 13 players out and several development on loan.

    Sinclair is what it is!

    I never said 13 where dross but who is left to leave in the “deadwood” category?

    Hendry, Miller, Kouassi?

    Considering the size of the squad at the first day of preseason I think we have sold/released/loaned out quite well.

    Took around £13m a season off wage bill

    Surely we need another CM, with Henderson going on loan..

    Kouassi may get a chance as a DM, thought he would have been loaned.

    I go to bed each night dreaming of Wanyama, tonight will be no different.

    Bring. Him. Home.

    If for no other reason than to make all my online profiles relevant again and put and end to being asked, "you a Spurs fan mate?"

    Absolutely amazed by how much defensive rebuilding we've done in a single window... (ignoring the ability to swap around position) 3 LB, 2 CB (including return of bitton) and 3 RB... given how many windows we got * all but loans... mental!

    New keeper in behind them...

    But for a * failed medical, 2 new young mids in front of them.

    Top tier winger on the left...

    We've potential to be * STUPENDOUS if these all work out!

    If Ntcham has been playing like he has because he wants to be here and not for a move then that reduces the need for a CM. Would still like a more defensively minded CM but wouldn't be overly worried if we have an in form Ntcham for the season.

    Would have liked a CDM in. But I think we are looking well up until January.

    That's really the only area...CB too but this lad O'Connor could surprise. And Elhamed will fill in there a fair bit I reckon.

    Would go for Turnbull and Wanyama in January...or maybe we wont have to..

    Aye mate Ntcham is quality no doubt and if he can keep his head right he can go really far..

    Think we may allow him to leave in January if Turnbull gets fit and firing.. ideally it would be the summer and beyond..

    Brown, Bitton, Kouassi- DM
    McGregor, Christie, Ntcham, Rogic -CM

    It’s probably adequate but if we brought in a real quality DM it would make some difference.
