Would have preferred a last minute panic bid for Semenyo rather than Elanga who I don't think is that good.

Was working so didn't see the game. Watched the highlights. My only thought is what the fuck was their goal that we gifted them Pleased with the win. Keep some positivity around the club, unbeaten start and a chance to regroup after the international break.

Yeah well... Vlachodimos... he's....gah....

I want Arsenal to get a decision like this in every game. Cunteta would explode.

Staveley and Ghoudoussi are beyond reproach as far as I'm concerned. They rescued this club from Mike Ashley, made fans believe again and made everyone feel good about the club again. Can't say the same about Eales so far.

Just hope we get a performance to make us feel good about the club. Its badly needed after the awful transfer window. 5-0 up in 20 minutes again would do nicely

Everton look delightfully shit this season.

If it is true then Eales has put his job at major risk. Claiming he can't get stuff done because Amanda/Merdad keep getting in the way, then still not getting anything done when they're gone. Called PIF's bluff (probably to cover his own short comings) and been left exposed.

His article is full of hyperbole but my gut feeling is that the stuff he's written about Eales and Staveley/Ghodoussi is probably true. Their exit was so sudden and the momentum does seem to have gone with them.

Karma for signing for a cunt manager.

Trying to be as objective as I can: 2/10 Lloyd Kelly is a decent signing, especially on a free transfer and in time will become a valuable squad member. However the signing feels more disappointing due to us not capitalising on his free transfer to spend money elsewhere. William Osula I've made my opinions clear on. I don't rate him and I'm very concerned by his goal scoring record for a striker. So far he hasn't had a single second on the pitch despite being the only other available striker. John Ruddy and Odysseas Vlachodimos - What can be said? We needed a backup goalkeeper to Pope, or at least one who could challenge him as number 1. We signed 2 goalkeepers and we still need that. Vlachodimos fee rumoured to be anywhere between £5m - £20m which is horrendous. Elliott Anderson (out) - Maybe a good deal, but counteracted by the fact that Vlachodimos might well be eating a lot of that £35m fee making it next to no money at all. Think he should have been given another season personally and potentially the fee we got after PSR shambles is not that good. Yankuba Minteh (out) - A promising young player who played well at Feyernoord, including in the Champions League, let go without playing a single minute for us in a position we desperately needed to strengthen. Again people dismiss this as being down to PSR but who's fault was the PSR situation in the first place? Marc Guehi saga - Incredible amount of time and effort wasted on this transfer when it was clear fairly early on when Parish started guffawing in public about it that it wasn't going to happen. Also crazy that we were seemingly going to spend the entire budget on him when there were other positions that needed strengthening too. We needed quality at both CB and RW and we're now left with an injury ravaged CB pool to choose from and the same ineffective RW options which have become incredibly stale. The only deadwood that went out was Ryan Fraser right at the end of the window. I appreciate its difficult to sell shit players but it can be done as other clubs regularly prove. The PSR shambles was something else and very concerning. Most people seem to just ignore it but its not something that should be ignored. The biggest disappointments for me have been that the window has killed my confidence in the ability of those running the club. Their competence has to seriously come into question and they have a lot of questions to answer for this failure of a window. The mood around the club is going to be very low now and thats not fair on Eddie or the existing players to have to shoulder alone.

They haven't got any more crap goalkeepers they can shoehorn into this deal somehow...have they?

Started with Forest shenanigans, finishing with Forest shenanigans with a side of goalkeeper nonsense in the middle. What a window.

Wheez Keys wants to talk to the manager.

Chelsea are genuinely pissing me off now. What the fuck.

Cabaye wasn't exactly a pile of money. Sold for way below his value actually.

I'd take the usual huge win.

Finally some good news in this window!

The Ashley regime unravelled after a disastrous transfer window. I feel like he was trying up to that point then everything became spiteful from then on.

The leathery part is constructive at least.

Nice to see the unemployed unhinged section of our fan base in good voice today.

Its very embarrassing. So much time and effort wasted on a lost cause and seemingly no alternatives at all. We're not in a Liverpool or Arsenal position who can simply just wait for the right player. Our squad needs improving every summer.

How depressing.
