Said it before, we clearly missed out on our main target (Nunez) and now it'll be scrapping it out before the deadline. Just hope we don't chuck a load of money away on someone like Janssen at the last minute.

As you say, not sure why so many are laying into said poster when he is merely expressing the concern most of us are currently feeling, albeit a little repetitively. We are risk takers in that we never overspend on this incredibly in demand position, and so far those risks have paid off...

Alternatively, not my best position but I could dust off my boots and have a go.

What the **** is going on... No Midfielder No Striker Potentially a RB Is that the sum of it thus far? Someone update me. Desperately poor if so.

So er... are we actually singing anyone?

Not sure I'm happy yet. - We have signed a replacement for AK. Early signs are he is an upgrade, but he needs to stand the test of competitive matches. - A central defender which I think was unnecessary on the showing of our Championship loanees. Nothing against Webster, he looks a great player...

After the international break (back in training).

I can link him a couple of 90mins which should allow him to make his mind up.

No. The PL TV deal gives us a few quid to spend.

If we are to base our transfer budget on previous years, we are still circa 40-45M short. This deal + the Moroccan striker and we'll reach parity, with perhaps a free/loan/cheap option for RB/RWB. Or we could just spend more, as we have been seeing 10-20M in profits. We absolutely do not need...

I think he means 'football smart'. Hard to argue with Hyypia chalked up against him. He's contributed to more points for us than Ali J has, so I'm in.

Billing and Berge being used in the same breath, interesting.

What relevance does that have? All it shows is that we've made no significant sales. I have a feeling the gross spends will look somewhat different.

Sounds like you're managing expectations.

It's the same amount of signings that just yesterday you were agreeing with, and you gave assurances (realistic I think your word was) that we would make them. It's 3-4 because of the Dunk situation. Highly doubt he will leave, but if he does then it rises to 4. Not even sure why I have...

That's what we want? In our first Summer transfer window in the PL, we signed more players by this point than we have now. Bear in mind, this was when the window ended in SEPTEMBER. In our second, after doing reasonably well and the transfer window changes, we signed more players by this point...

Fair enough.

I've played football, managed football and watched football my whole life. No I don't see him in training but I've watched him play a number of times, enough to give an opinion with confidence. Just a gobshite on a messageboard though, like you. Seems little point in chipping in with opinions...

In this case, I would be quite confident as a precious gobshite on a messageboard of letting Potter know that Max Sanders is not a right back.

So despite the fans knowing, the club knowing and anybody who had watched us for more than 5mins last season knowing, Potter needed 4 precious weeks of the transfer window to come to the same conclusion?
