People like to list off all the signings we've made and in the same breathe, fail to mention we have lost Gareth Bale - the third best player in the world, our leading goal scorer, a proven match winner.

To be the third best player in the world you need to contribute more than a long shot to a game and last season he went missing for 70 mins in matches.

86 million was daylight robbery.

Difference of opinion, but was your rude response necessary??

We'll see at the end of the season.

A difference of opinion, sure, but here's a fact: You make our fan base look terrible. the beauty of this club is that we are NOT Chelsea, and we are NOT Manchester City, and we are NOT PSG, or Monaco, or Anzi, or any other club whose sole identity comes from the pocket of a two-bit billionaire gangster.

As you know, the matches are played not on paper, but in real life. In real life, we've concluded out business before the transfer deadline, with what anyone thinking straight would call this our most ambitious, forward-moving transfer window in the club's recent history, and possibly ever. If the signing we've secured play to their potential, we will be as strong as we've been since 1961.

I hope you come to your senses. If not, you could head to south London.

Feeling smug. Knew the money from uncle Joe was fronting the Bale money before we sold him. Guarantee he's been paid back.

On my onion this window has been the stuff of dreams.

Didn't sign a striker. Didn't sell Defoe or Ade today. Who has 3 striker like that to choose from?

We should see some more exciting football this season. I don't think we have a chance of top four though. Won't be consistent enough for a few months in the final third.

Why stop 3 days early? Why leave gaping holes in the squad yet again? Losing our best player... And again no net spending... Can't say I'm too happy with these goings on...

I don't get how any of you aren't pissed off. We have one senior LB on our books. Who is actually a converted winger.

Stupid decision.

CB? Really?

We have 4 international CB, plus Capoue can play there... How many do we need?
I'm going to say this calmly...need to calm down.

Yes, we need another CB because Dawson is not good enough and kaboul is recovering. We need 4 GOOD CBs this season to cover all comps and injuries. Dawson is a great guy but not a great defender...not even a very good one. You can't be if you don't know how to play a line and make so many rash tackles and general errors. It's impossible.

He's been a loyal and faithful yiddo and we all love him for his commitment, but he need to be sold asap.

Club first every single time.

Would rather a dedicated 4th CB than use capoue there ad hoc.

So, 4231 then...?
Soldado​
Eriksen Holtby Lamela​
Paulinho Sandro​

Chadli and Townsend back ups and Lennon as additional cover for both wings I suppose. Dembele and Capoue as cover for midfield. Fryers Naughton Chariches and Dawson as defensive cover....

Oh well, Holtby will have to make sure he drops back if Paulinho and Sandro are to cope with covering the midfield, because I can't see Lamela or Eriksen doing much defending, but I think he will.

And these four have hardly played this season and should be great when they do. We should look very good this season, but need to avoid injuries to our full backs and rotate whenever it's safe to do so.
