I reckon quite a few teams will have spent above their means. Some outrageous fees for some average players as others have said. I know it sucks but hopefully long term we reap the benefits of being tight with our money.
Everton are going to be our closest rivals this season i think. Got to hope they have one of those poor runs. Need to watch out for Fulham now aswell. Great start and now some quality signings and a very good manager behind them.
Still don't get why so many teams wait till the last day. Is it just human nature? like leaving a bit of work till the last night of a deadline or something.
Not much competition for places in our starting 11 this season but then again it's been that way for along time as it was last year so hopefully no body gets lazy. Could do with Shola staying fit though just so we have some kind of Plan B when things are going wrong.
Be surprised to see us not line up 4-4-2 though. Probably change in the second half when it's not working.
That could be our new "thing". Play different systems each half. That we confuse them opposition folk.
Hope spurs don't get moutinho. Would really put them beyond us if they got him. Still expect them to pull some last minute signing out the bag though. Probably a striker.
Heart fucking sank for a second then when then said BREAKING NEWS " we have some sad news for newcastle................and ryan taylor has.....PHEW. I mean sad about Taylor but I feared the worst for a second.
Had bit of time to reflect now. If we don't lose anybody then this window hasn't been tragic, but I would say we have to recruit in January. If other teams are spending now and we're not so be it but if we do nothing in January then that would be unforgivable and could mean losing star players in the summer as a consequence.
