I’ve wanted a young Brazilian winger with pace and trickery

[World's End Stella]

Aside from Koscielny, Cech, Per, Monreal, Mustafi, Gallas, Big Sol, Sagna........

Cech and Sol were on frees and it hardly took a genius to spot that those two would work, although I would argue that Cech's replacement should have been a priority this past summer.

As for the rest, Kos was a good buy, Per was not, Monreal was a good buy, Mustafi is very questionable at this point, Gallas was a nutter and Sagna was also good.

Would you like me to list the failures at this point? Nah. Can't be bothered although I'd start with Almunia.
