Not only did Daniel get our main targets over the line, he can’t even be blamed for the one that he didn’t get!

He’s backed the HELL out of Poch and then some. It’s been a great window for DL.

It's hard to judge our window until the European window shuts.

It seems like we want rid of Rose still which is a concern and the Eriksen situation is still very much up in the air. If both stay (especially if CE signs a new deal) and Dybala stays at Juventus then i'll be delighted.

The signings we have made though are top quality, but losing Eriksen would be a massive blow to our depth and overall quality.

So looks like a few of our youngsters will have to go abroad to Europe, Telling that no championship team would take the risk on Marcus

Sky don't know GLC so they spend half an hour analysing Andy unfit Carroll coming back home ?

Sky Sports for you. The fuckers had Kevin Nolan on, who was giving his opinion on our transfer dealings. Like, what the hell would he have to say about our business? Just a joke really. :LOL:

Yeah I definitely think in the past there's been cases of us 'trying' for players. I was very sceptical of the Moutinho deal especially.

But with this one it does seem genuine attempts were made and the reason for it breaking down was no fault of ours.

The important part, so far, is that no one we expected to near the end has left. Who would have thunk we'd still have TA and CE by the end of the window, whilst adding Ndombele, Lo Celso and....finally...Sessegnon?

Dybala was a dream, but I didn't expect we'd get as close as we did.

If Eriksen stays and knuckles down we're in fantastic shape.

I guess a lot will be revealed on Saturday evening, if he's not starting it will be pretty disconcerting.

Be nice to hear Poch acknowledge this backing from Levy

Ndombele should be a significant upgrade, LoCelso is an unknown and Sessegnon is an England U21 player who struggled at times in the Premier League last season.

Seems more like a 'fine tuning' rather than a 'revolutionary' off season for us. That's the difference between signing a true marquee player like Dybala compared to a LoCelso that most fans wouldn't know if it wasn't for YouTube....

It doesn't matter what the fans think, it's what Poch thinks. The club have been after Sessegnon for almost 3 seasons now, and I'm pretty sure GLC isn't an unknown to Poch.

He'd be an idiot for leaving, honestly. With him staying along with the signings we've made, we are literally a better team than Madrid.

Delighted. Absolutely. Yup I can deal with our fans who lean towards the pessimism but hey I still got love for them too. And yes spurs got the players in that were identified. For me, personally, I’d like CE to push on and show RM what they missed out on. We are not a feeder club, we now feed at the top table boys! 1884

We've made some real statement signings with N'dombele, who was widely saught after, Lo Celso, who i knew little about to be honest, but looks like a right baller, and Sess, who is one of the most coveted teenagers in the game. Feeling really positive for the season.

All 23 and under as well, which should mean all the players should adapt to the league pretty well.

Concerns over right back are probably justified, but i think KWP could really grow into the position if given the opportunity. Experience does wonders.

Agreed. If he stays and really gets his head down we're pushing the top two all the way this time.

That's how crucial this is all now.

With all respect I would expect his agent or club to have informed us about the image rights deals and for us to have had a solid plan/offer in place in order to get around that.
