I think we can get away without a new DM this season, but a back up striker for Kane is a total necessity-don't see how we are covered for cup games without one. Hopefully bera does come off- however Peace seems adamant he won't deal with us whatever pulis thinks, so we'd damn well better have an alternative target.

Have you not read JJ's tweet?

You know, ITK?

Chelsea have signed Djilobodji. Better than Nobodji I suppose.

I'll get my coat - which would have been useful before I walked out the door and got drenched!

Personally very hopeful of Berahino. God knows on DM.

If jj is happy i am happy. chill the hell out we got this!!
True! If jj is optimistic then that is always a good sign, but when I read "chill we got this" I instantly remember this being the most overused quote of deadline day, and nothing ever comes to fruition when that quote is used :D:D.

I am underwhelmed with Berahino to be honest, I am not sure if he's the answer
Not picking on your opinion, it's just I was thinking about the possible autopsy results once the window has closed.

1. We sign no-one. Mass hysteria.

2. We sign Berahino. Meh, was expecting it anyway. He's not that good anyway.

3. We sign SB and Witsel. General feeling of success, with the typical few bemoaning that it's not Modric.

4. We sign Messi. Mass hysteria.

Midfield just as important for me. If we don't strengthen then it's two from three of Bentaleb, Mason and Dier until at least January which would be underwhelming. We are a couple of players away from a really decent squad. Fingers crossed but as always no expectations.
Story of our lives, season after season we are always a couple of players short of a full picnic

6 hours left and still one striker on the books.

JJ confident I know but we need to be hearing something soon.

Can't believe some people are defending us if we don't get a CDM.

It's almost as crucial as bringing in a striker imo - Dier, Mason, Alli, Bentaleb is nowhere near good enough for a top 6 side.

Not sure where the DM's coming from though, now that the Witsel links have dried up...Hopefully some DM ITK is incoming

People keep saying loan a DM. Who is going to loan out a very very good DM to us? any guesses? wont happen. Best chance was Song

mason and Bentaleb alone were good enough for a top-5 side last season...

As great as JJ is we all have to remember that until it's on the official site then there's nothing to celebrate and I'm sure JJ will say the same thing. Not to put a dampener on things but try not to get your hopes up too much. We rarely finish the transfer window with everything we want. On the plus side we still seem to do well regardless. Usually someone steps up to the plate.
