So we stick with the front three, no new winger then I guess?

After the Leicester away game last season, I don't think anyone was being unreasonable in expecting us to bring in a RW and CB that improves the first XI. These were the glaring holes, with deeper options upfront and at LB being positive moves but not the main issues.
We haven't done the business we need, regardless of who came in, and the one's we've brought in - whilst exiting in their own ways - simply aren't the deals we desperately needed.

Probably for the best, that injury record is something else.
SO .....
It's gonna go to the wire!
He's 22. It's hardly 'young' and I don't think it's inconsistent. I think he came in and had a purple patch. I just don't think he's good enough.
He seems a great professional though and a nice guy - So I do hope he can kick on and do well. But this kind of thing answers the question of why we don't get decent money for our players. We only sell when it's abundantly clear that they're not good enough and nobody wants them.
Sell James to Leeds for 25m and put a 35m buyback in. If he turns out to be good, get him back.
Surely you don't still expect there to be Sancho movement this late now
Anyone else think we’ll end up doing something crazy out of nowhere like drop a shit ton of cash on Koulibaly last minute or activate Partey’s buyout clause? Maybe it’s more hope than anything. 
I think we'll do something even more crazy and not sign anyone (other than telles/cavani)Anyone else think we’ll end up doing something crazy out of nowhere like drop a shit ton of cash on Koulibaly last minute or activate Partey’s buyout clause? Maybe it’s more hope than anything.
My impression is that he knows that if he moves on loan and remains constantly injured, he then cannot blame Barca training regime for mishaps.
Zero chance, sorry bud.Anyone else think we’ll end up doing something crazy out of nowhere like drop a shit ton of cash on Koulibaly last minute or activate Partey’s buyout clause? Maybe it’s more hope than anything.
That would be crazy in one sense and yet completely expected in another.
Honestly would take both right now as we definitely are that desperateAnyone else think we’ll end up doing something crazy out of nowhere like drop a shit ton of cash on Koulibaly last minute or activate Partey’s buyout clause? Maybe it’s more hope than anything.
Aye your probably right. I just think something might happen after witnessing that utter shit show yesterday, some attempt to try and appease the fans.
Attempt to “appease the fans” is not what we need. We need changes to the strategy and the way this club is run
That's quality. Imagine Romano saying "here we go" every time he goes to the toilet.So we kidnap him?
Worth a shot isn't it?So we kidnap him?
Of course we do but it’s Woodward and the Glazers we’re talking about here so that’s never going to happen is it.
Oh yes.
At the very least they could declare Matt Judge a scapegoat and fire him for incompetence

No RW, no problems, we got Mata and Lingard for another season of fun.

Daniel James is not good enough for a team with title aspirations and the expectations of a club like ours.
No matter the personal circumstances or not he’s not good enough. And he’s nearly 23 so not like he’s a kid...he can’t cross, has terrible decision making and quite frankly doesn’t have the mentality to go beat a man/penetrate forward.
He’s ideal for a fast counter attacking team that will play with very little possession. A team like Leeds, Brighton etc he would do well for I imagine.
Thank feck? You would rather go with what we got now than improve the options? Ok then.
We target one player all summer and fail to get him(because we suck at negotiation, and fail to sell our players). We also fail to get ANY player in for that position, which is what we needed the MOST this summer.
I am starting to lose all hope about this club. The people in power dont actually want what's best for our club, or are just grossly incompetent.

Ew...
Hahaha
Presumably thats for next season when we are down?
Considering.....selling?
This is exactly the brief I thought the club will have.
No worries we still have 2 weeks to do something and make you fans look like fools.
IN truth they do not intend to sing anyone, just buying more time.

Sarr and Brooks, presumably.
Sarr on Tuesday it is then
No, buying. We can still buy from the Championship after today so all is not lost! Troy Deeney could be an alternative to Cavani for example.
Get Benrahma
our metamorphosis in pre klopp liverpool continues at pace. remember them signing the likes of sean dundee / konchesky / don hutchinson et al.
I dont have an issue with buying quality, proven championship players / wonderkids, but they now come with a premium (eg Watkins). cant see our lot seeing value there.
