Botman definitely, don’t think the other two took long at all.

That will either end any chance on Wissa, or increase his price.

Very unlikely that Barnes was getting a better move.

I actually think that one is more likely towards the end of the window. Same with Guehi (if our interest in him still remains). I think our difficult start to the season has maybe increased our need to get a couple more in before kick off.

Fingers crossed, would hope for at least two in by the first game.

I just can’t envisage us working quickly enough to bring 4 players in tbh.

Aye, we aren’t bringing 4 players in imo. Another 2 I reckon, CB and striker.

We already do with Elanga signing tbf, still wouldn’t be enough. As the bare minimum we need a CB and ST imo.

Everyone still confident we get what we need ?

Wanting to signing an injured RB? Exciting times

The gap between the top and those trying to bridge it, is arguably bigger than ever.

I think it was always unlikely we got everything we needed due to funds. Time is also against us now as well.

Downie definitely makes it seem like we only do one deal at a time. Trafford can’t get done so we try for a striker, we can’t get him so we go for a CB. Seems very disorganised.

Moving onto defenders because we failed to sign a striker

With help from his Nephew

Think you can safely rule out any business with Liverpool for a while

Why would he be pissed of when he’s massively involved in the transfers

Delap yep, bench warmer obviously not the right term but he was backup. The other two, we would clearly have changed formation. Wissa would be back up.

Is it hard to sell a move to someone coming in to be backup to Isak, whilst also knowing they are our 4th/5th choice target ?

Don't think anyone is questioning his quality tbf. Just not sure on his profile and price, especially when we have to be so careful due to PSR. If money wasn't an issue, i am sure everyone would love the signing.

People still think we do smokescreens/decoys?

Aye, just can't see it- different profile, older, big price tag and competition from other clubs. Just can't see it happening.

Feel like the Wissa one is already a no go tbh.
