    We're well used to Bednarek being made to look foolish

    Either he hadn’t engaged brain or it is indicative of a poor attitude as has been suspected on occasion.

    Also. Caleta-Car and ABK at the back with a developing Salisu is genuinely ****ing unreal.

    up the ****ing saints

    And the funds are clearly there for attacking options. We clearly really wanted Delap. And potentially still might next season. Better than just throwing money at anyone.

    Not sure if we will spend this in January though. If the right options come up then maybe. Doubt it will be Gakpo though - Leeds will be all over it with a higher fee and said fee might well increase anyway and no longer be considered good value

    Well, that's got to be a 9.5/10 transfer window for me. Gakpo seemed so close, close enough to book a medical allegedly. Another reason to despise Leeds. But I really like the squad we have now and the good news is there's not that many games (13 I think) between now and January. So if we're say 10th or higher I'm sure Solak will get his chequebook out again.

    Forget Leeds. He will probably end up with a top 6 club.

    Massive, massive window for us. Freed up so much space in wages. Brought in loads of genuine quality.

    A target man striker away from 10/10 window.

    but def gets an 8 or 9 from me.

    Meh, need Redmond's wages off the books really. I just don't see him contributing to the team anymore.

    Does the loan window close as well tonight, or does that overlap a bit?

    Squad changes:

    Forster ---> Bazunu
    Bednarek ---> ABK
    Stephens ---> DCC
    Valery ---> Larios
    Romeu ---> Lavia
    Smallbone ---> AMN
    Tella ---> Edozie
    Broja ---> Mara
    Long ---> Aribo (not an exact comparison)

    So generally upgrades in most positions. Mara is probably not far off what Broja when he first joined in terms of what we know. It seems unlikely he will have the impact Broja did - but I'm not sure many thought that Broja would play how he did when we signed him

    Seems to be a fair amount of versatility in these signings as well

    Not perfect, but probably as close to perfect as we could realistically get! Great window! A lot of exciting young talent with a lot of potential upside for this season and beyond. We are short a striker but we clearly did everything we could to land the players we wanted and really no point in throwing away money on a player we’re not convinced on for the sake of it. Exciting that the money is there though. In an ideal world we would have shifted a few more too and sold some that were loans but you can’t make teams buy your players.
