Thread: Sideshow Bob?

    Perhaps not what we’re looking for but a vast improvement on the hapless Mustafi. I suppose, given the spending constraints and longer term picture of Holding & Saliba, it makes sense.

    Agreed - he's a cheap (apparently) stop gap until the young French lad is ready, hopefully next season.

    With Tierney and Luiz we have had an excellent window imo, much better than ManU or Chelsea, our opposition for the 4th CL spot.

    wd Arsenal.

    Fair play to Raul and Indian Finance guy for making £45m work

    Also...

    Destabilised Zaha
    Laid the groundwork for an Upamecano deal later on if required...
    Started work on moving Ozil to the MLS in January
    Played mind games with Iwobi ie we could’ve sold you but believe in you so come on!

    What role did Mickey Pearce play in all of this T? Running interference for the Pepe deal by making bids for Everton and Zaha? Or, just fetching tea and biscuits for Raul and Vinai?

We’ve done quite well overall. Getting Pepe was a huge bonus.
    You have only to look at the last match vs Barca to see what a problem this was. Kept shooting ourselves in the foot by giving it away, and of course Matland-Niles did an own goal. Think Luiz adds considerably, if you want to know. And Upamacano is only 20, thus another understudy.

    Hard for Chelsea to have a better window as they couldn't sign anyone
