    Jullien - looking like he's up to the price tag.
    Boli - finding his feet.
    Elhamed - looking like an absolute gem and can play excellently in multiple positions.
    Bauer - Celtic have a £6m rated RB as back up, cmon to *.
    Elyounoussi - Best attack in Scotland already and we have a £16m rated winger no even kicked a baw.
    Taylor - Best young player in scotland outwith us/huns signed as back up.

    Possibility of 2 highly rated youngsters coming in for the future. Utd fans beeling if the deal goes through for the irish lad.


    No bad a suppose eh.

    I think looking at it purely from a players brought in point of view I would have gone with a seven, but the * about and once again leaving it too late to impact the CL qualifiers meant I wanted to give it about a three.

    Went with a six in the end, think that's fair.

    It's been okay, but it should have been a lot better a lot sooner than it has been.

    Bring in Wanyama I'll give it a twelve.

    Lacking the big name glamour signing that the KT money might have funded but overall not too bad. Some interesting acquisitions.

    So 3 right backs in to replace the 3 we lost last season. Like to see more of Bauer but Elhamed looks good. Improvement.
    Julien and O'connor in at cb, never heard of the latter but looks a good replacement for Boyata. Not an improvement but a solid effort and long term plan especially as Elhamed can play there and Bitton can also. So maybe it is an improvement.
    2 left backs in Boli was rated at Rapid Vienna and I can see why. He just needs to adjust. Taylor, unsure about £3m but that will be the minimum price for a decent Scottish player now. Both better than Izzy but always hard to replace KT but solid effort.
    Forster in goal, well need I say more.
    A loan winger and Connel in midfield. One an expensive winger and another really good in a * Bolton team. We didn't lose a middle player so improved.
    Best transfer window in ages. Rebuilt the whole defence with 4 defenders making Old Firm debuts. Done in 1 summer what Congertonffailed to do in 5 windows. The team looks settled.

    Aye, that’s a different level signing. If we could get him then obviously.

    That’d be like Dembele being available or something, if there was a chance, even though we’re sound up top, * do it :56:

    It would be the dusting of caster sugar on the cherry on top of the cake.

    It's been a good window.

    10 if you like to see us sign relatively unknown full backs.

    Timing of some of the signings (more-so Bauer and Taylor) leaves a lot to be desired, but along with the very decent acquisitions at youth level i'm happy with this window, would give it a 7/10, 8 if we brought in the players quicker, 9 if we done that and brought in a cdm, and 10 if we managed big vic.

    6/10 for leaving it so late to bring in adequate cover for the defence. If this was all done weeks ago I’d be tempted to notch it to an 8.

    If they somehow pull a Wanyama out the bag before midnight I’ll go 9/10. We need an imposing figure to rotate brown and he’d be freaking redic!

    I put 8. Had they went for Wanyama I would have given a 10.
