    I wonder which 'mistakes' Rafa was alluding to when he remarked that "mistakes were made" early in the transfer window.
    I sense he's not a happy man, and has upped the ante with this morning's remark.

    Probably procrastination relating to the moves we didn't even hear rumour of. Or maybe those for Tammy Abraham and Reina/Caballero. Probably tried some variation of our standard hardball that backfired.

    Intentional and not a mistake to Charnley.

    A massive bella emberb sized mistake to everyone else on the planet.

    I'd like to think we didn't hear about the mistake. The likes of Abraham and Cabellero didn't fill me with any kind of optimism in the first place.

    The mistake was letting other clubs think we had a war chest to spend

    Quite possibly.
    The consequences of a fish bowl environment and appeasing fans.
    Quietly getting on with the job, without incessant media speculation has many advantages.
