Surely that makes it the BEST window
They’ve actually spent less than 10 million on transfer fees, but, they’re not struggling for money, no Sirreee!
Is it PotG?

Man U, just because it's Man U.

United for me. Mourinho has to win the Premier League this season or he is toast. He won't get near City or Liverpool with the squad he has now
Burnley - I think they're in real trouble if they get through to the EL later stages. Squad pretty thin.
Yes that's a pretty good window. Kenedy is immense.

We didn't need to spend a fortune on transfer fees because we've spent £150m+ in the last few years. We've managed to sign a couple of extremely promising players on free transfers, added to our depth in midfield and up front, and most importantly we've kept Zaha. A blinding success, I reckon.

I was thinking Man U because they have fallen further behind their main competition for top spot but in the end I opted for Leicester because they lost their best player.
Great poll tho, had to think long and hard. The only thing I can say for certain is it wasn't Brighton. Lost no-one of critical importance and made what could be some great signings.

strong and stable with me, or...
Got to be Southampton. Skirted with relegation last season. Not strengthened while 2 of the sides coming up have spent heavily. Spurs and Man Utd have fantastic squads as you've said, they'll fight out the top 6. Southampton for me are gambling on their survival.
Keeping Zaha (unless he gets a long term injury) was the key. You will stay up as a result. Simples.

For me it was between Spurs and Utd as they are big 6 and unless they are improving their squad then they're going backwards. Utd edge it as Spurs have the excuse, long used by Arsenal, that they are paying for a new stadium.

If there had been absolutely no question of Zaha leaving, and he had signed his new contract, would you still be as happy?
Or, has Parrish played you all, and, gets away with a not great window and not a lot of criticism?
Honest question.
Where did Spurs need to strengthen and who should they have bought? I admire the youth they bring through to be fair

Potentially us for best or worst.
If most of them click we could finish 7th.
If most of them stink the place out, we'll be relegated and supporters of other clubs will be justifiably laughing at us.

They could still lose him. There were a couple of European teams sniffing around too, and their window isn't closed yet. I don't suppose it will happen, but technically it could. So Palace fans can't sleep easy yet.
The ex-PL-player pundits on TalkSport just confidently stated that Brighton, Cardiff and Hudd will be relegated.
Looks like we'll have to prove them wrong all over again.

Win that and we can comfortably plan for Europa League 2019/20. You have to pinch yourself sometimes.
