You do seem to have a biased viewed towards us thought which is understandable but surely you can see why others might be impressed with them?
Ok Pickford is overpriced due to neon English and we'd al surely prefer Schmeichel so fair enough. I'm sure Pickford will come god though.
Maguire and Keane seem fairly evenly matched and maybe Keane gets more hyped because he came through Man u's academy rather than the less attractive yet successful Sheffield Utd. Probably Maguire for half the price is the better deal but I'd have loved both.
Sandro a Spain u21 who came through Barcelona'a academy for £5 mill? Why weren't we on this? Again maybe one for the future.
Klassen I don't know much about.
Rooney still has something about him but maybe is more sentimental.
Now if w get Iheanacho over the line I think as an individual signing it'd blow all theirs and ours out the water as it'd be a top signing. We probably still have the potential to have as good if not better window than Everton but we'd need a few more (maybe Iheanacho, Siggy and Gibson in first)
It's not so much that I'm biased, I just don't get the hype around other teams which others rave about and I don't see Everton as the next big thing irrespective of how much money they spending/wasting. I'm looking at the bigger picture here which is Lukaku scored 25 last season and the next SIX players scored 21, including Barkley's five as their next highest scorer. I don't see how Rooney, Sandro, Klaasen and even Siggy are going to score enough to replace Lukaku's 25 let alone more than the 21 they need from their next six players. I don't even see what their "plan" is, I mean three number 10's (if they get Siggy) and no recognised goal scorer to go with a slightly better defence, which still has the calamities of Jagielka and Williams as well as the ageing Baines so it's not a defence to be feared by any stretch. They're also doing things differently there because Klaassen was blatantly Koeman not Walsh, he had nothing to do with that because we would have been linked with him if he had and we never have been so they don't use Walsh like we did.
I also know we're a lot better than anyone gives us credit for, even our own fans. I mean top 10 and people are happy but not me because I know 100% that we are a lot better than top 10th to 8th, we were only two points off and would have been 8th had Vardy's goal not been disallowed incorrectly. Fine margins, Yet we're way behind these teams apparently. Bullshit!
To break into the top six someone has to have a poor season and with everyone in Europe and without squads to cope with PL and CL (Spurs and Liverpool in particular) someone will have a poor season and my bet is it will be one of those two.
Yeah I said Pickford and Keane are decent but they're not exciting. Maguire is the better defender based on his stats being better than both Gibson and Keane in almost every area and we paid the sensible price for him not the overpriced fee for Keane.
I'm sure no Leicester fan would want Rooney, he's just a fat past it mess now.
Klaassen is unproven and setting the Eredivisie on fire is a far cry from the PL, it's one of the poorest leagues in Europe and players from the Dutch league rarely adapt. Look at Jenssen at Spurs, he was all over the Eredevisie and crap in the PL.
Sandro is probably just another Perez who we were interested in. In fact we were interested in Sandro while Walsh was here and look what happened to the last player we had from La Liga who was recommended by Worthington, he went back in January. I'm glad we weren't in for him, give my Kelechi all day every day.
