    Well yet again after champions league qualification we fail to make a statement in the transfer window. Yes we signed Roberts but again only on loan and we've signed this PSG youngster again on loan.

    Second year in a row. Banked around £60M and spent next to * all. Ok Ntcham looks a player and we've managed to retain our best players but to make inroads in Europe we have to strengthen further. What have our scouts been doing? What has Lee congelton been doing?

    Someone has * up behind the scenes with the CB signing because we had one signed and yet he some how failed a medical with us yet today he's joined someone else.

    If the club have not made a statement then I'm still hopeful that we are working quietly behind the scenes. If it doesn't happen I'll be annoyed then.

    What do you expect them to do when Jonny Evans is getting bids in for 25M. The market is so over-inflated making our gap in the market tighter each year as more teams look for the bargains and uncover a gem.

    I'd rather the board spend wisely and obviously aiming for only Rodgers targets, than go out and buy a load of players or pay way over the odds for an average player.

    True mate but realistically
    Hayes- limited chances
    Benyu- youngster, limited chances
    Roberts- loan- no buy option
    Edouard- loan- option to buy- limited chances
    Ntcham- fair enough very good buy

    I hope to * I ain't watching Bitton lining up against neymar mbappe etc, it's a terrifying thought.

    Decent window but we should definitely have signed a centre half so that's disappointing.

    Usual *, everyone can see we need a centre back but no. Surely Brendan must be * off at the lack of spending yet they have the cheek to charge £50 a ticket for the champions league. Wasn't asking for much, just 5 million spent on a centre back. We now go into the champions league with one fit experienced centre back.

    I’m all for thinking we can set results off these teams but do you really think an unknown addition will stop these guys hahahaha

    If we sell Dembele for about £500m we might.

    Says who?

    Brendan has said he only wants players who can improve our squad.

    I can't see him signing a player who isn't capable of playing for us when Boyata and Erik are out injured.

    Ok, so we got...

    Hayes W
    Benyu CM
    Ntcham CM
    Roberts W
    Eduarde ST

    For a window, that doesn't look that bad. But considering we've banked £30 million give or take and we still only have 1 fit CB is embarrassing more than anything.

    Nevermind waiting until now, we needed one BEFORE Boyata and Sviatchenko got hurt. Niether really convince me and Simunovic is still one bad tackle away from being out too, not like he's not had issues in the past.

    No proven back up for Tierney and De Vries doesn't seem to be getting a chance to put pressure on Gordon.

    January wish list, one or two CB's and a keeper. Maybe a LB if Miller can't take some of the load off of Tierney.

    Still rattled we didn't get a CB :nonono:
