Despite all the previous ITK positivity I never really expected any major signings this window. Let's be honest we've all been here before and while we might not agree with it Levy just doesn't get the chequebook out when there's still a chance of snow.
On this occasion it seems like we were at least trying but while we were prepared to be mildly shafted we baulked at the prospect of buying our own lube. As a fan i'm not thrilled but I am prepared to wait.
The one thing I do not want to see is a last minute panic buy a la Sissoko. If our main targets aren't available i'm happy to see us take a chance on prospects like Jann-Fiete Arp but will be gutted if we buy mediocre filler like Andre Gomes and Lucas Moura who will eat up wages, block the career paths of our young prospects, and quite probably kill me in a 'shouting insanely at the TV moment' as my heart gives out during a fit of apoplectic rage .
Don't kill me Levy .
