For years we've been clamouring for us to get our business done early and now we have, everyone feels disappointed.
The simple truth is most transfers do not work out due to the huge amount of variables, and having less time to prepare for a season doesn't help anyone. We've all seen good signings not work out - hell, our best player came from two of them being flops.
But, somewhat hypocritically after that sentence, if you'd have told me after that Burnley game we'd sign Richy, Bissouma, Perisic and Spence to bolster our CL squad I'd consider that an absolute win.
