    It's been a great window. Edouard's a helluv an addition. Anyone think we can maybe rely on outscoring teams in Europe? I do.

    Our Manager said a few days ago he's still looking at getting a few more in, and our Assistant Manager this afternoon we're still interested in getting more in.

    How's that silly season?

    Without giving the undead any ammo, getting to six wasn't exactly a hard task was it!?
    And both qualifications should have been handled a little better. It's clear as day a defender signed earlier would have made a world of difference. Sneaking in is all good, but when we want to be there more often than not and to not just make up the numbers, the squad needs to be better than sneaking through the qualifiers

    Would love a GK to really take over Gordon but I think we've got our lot now.

    CB injuries aside this would have been a great window.

    See at the end of the day, if we don't sign anybody else it's not a disaster, nowhere near. We've got 3 decent/good centre backs and 2 are injured and will be back reasonably soon. No point going out a panic buying someone for them to sit on the bench for the rest of their time at celtic when boyata and sviatchenko are back.

    I disagree completely. 6 in a row is a culmination of decades of hard work and a change of mindset with the club. We were fiscally responsible when it may have been easier to splurge money and quell the howls from the stands.

    In a challenging environment in the transfer market we - hopefully - will come out of it stronger than we entered it, which shouldn't be overlooked after such a historical season with many excellent individual performers in the squad.

    Chris Davies has came out and said they are trying get in a few more players, I take that on face value and have no reason to believe that's a line he's been asked to make by the board. We should always be looking to strengthen but not at any cost. Getting bang for our buck is imperative in the current market where Sone Aluko commands a £7.5million fee and West Brom are knocking back £20 million+ for Jonny Evans.

    That's surely a wind up? Should have signed Mirallas instead of Hayes haha * *. No wonder some folk are miserable all the time if that is their expectations

    Even Mangala who I have never really rated, they * signed him for best part of £30 million.
