I'll also add - I do think its better for the window to be closed today, instead of September 1. I know its frustrating - but once the season starts, everyone knows who is here - and we support everyone who is here.

@jetsetyid so nobody in at all then JJ what a disaster

@jetsetyid


Depends on what constitutes a disaster and a success with our current squad however I’m not too bothered either way as knowing all details and facts it’s not as it appears and Poch is fine

Honestly my main concern is Poch and then the top players being happy, I wasn't expecting that much from this season with the new stadium but if we can make it through to next summer, I'd be content it's the bigger picture that concerns me.

Yes, because the players those clubs need to improve would not even make our bench, even injury crisis taken into account, and block the path of our youth players more than it already is.

Each club below us in terms of stature biggest signing this window:

Bournmouth: Diego Rico - who?
Brighton: Florin Andone - who?
Burnley: Ben Gibson - at best would be our 4th choice CB, we have highly talented Foyth for that
Cardiff: Josh Murphy - the shitter brother of the kid who can't make it at Newcastle
Crystal Palace: Max Meyer - Hugely unprofessional billy big balls who was banned from training by his own club - sounds ideal for Poch
Everton: Richarlison - not as good as any of our AMs and he cost £50m!!!!
Fulham: Alex Mitrovic - already flopped in this league/ Schurlle - already flopped in this league / Mawson - see Ben Gibson above
Huddersfield: Terence Kongolo - See Ben Gibson above
Leicester: James Maddison - not as good as any of our current AMs or as Grealish
Newcastle: Salomon Rondon - do I really need to go there?
Southampton: Mohamed Elyounoussi - scored 1 in 3 in the Swiss League for the best club there
Watford: Gerard Delofeu - wasn't good enough for Everton to activate a clause
West Ham: Felipe Anderson - go back to Richarlison
Wolves: Benik Afobe - well I guess he used to play with Harry Kane, god dammit we should've signed him!

I do agree but this window was also a real chance to pull away from 4th/5th placed Chelsea and Arsenal who both have new managers and will likely need time and bridge the gap to UTD.

It’s an opportunity missed either way you look at it. For anyone that argues that we’re alrrady good, we should have strived to be even better, especially going into our brand new stadium.

Good, seeming as most people are saying what they care about most is poch I presume the meltdown will end?

Disappointing/frustrating window but not the end of the world

I could agree with that list if we were in competition with those clubs - The reality is that expectation from recent seasons makes us a top 4 club & minimum top 6, not a mid-table team - Irrelevant imo

You know, it is possible to put a point of view across without calling other posters out. It just demeans the point you're trying to make.

Tbf it is true, I don’t think you understand that people can have a different opinion to yours...

Probably not, the anger and other describing words I get, but some of the OTT stuff ... Let people tee off and blow it out their system.
