I was so excited about this window. Proper shambles so far in every way possible, and I just can’t see it becoming a very good one like it had to be this time. 

Feels like i'm watching an episode of the Benny Hill show.

We need at least a RCB, GK, CM and ST. thats 1 player every 9 days.

Potentially 2 strikers.

Going into a CL season with Schar (Lascelles) as the RCB's would be criminal

 

 

Going into it with Osula as our only striker would be even worse.

 

Wtf is going on.

This summer is more sickening than a Mike Ashley summer, at least we were numb back then, we have had the temerity to feel again and now we're getting punched in the proverbials for it.

Champions League qualification for the second time in three years (by the skin of our teeth). No signings for the last few windows so money to spend. In desperate need of some new additions to freshen the squad up and compete in Europe and the league. We need to get it right.

 

So far, we've managed one signing. A player nobody else was in for.

 

People have every right to be concerned. This summer presented a big opportunity to kick on. If we fail to add players in the right positions, there's every chance the wheels might come off like they almost did last year. Thankfully Howe was able to turn it around much to his credit. Added European games make this season so much more difficult. Ideally you want players to have a good pre season with us and adapt to Howes methods. We haven't managed that but we really need to pick it up between now and the end of the window. Bringing players in at the back end of August is far from ideal, particularly from abroad but it's better than nowt. They have to get it right from here though.

Goodness, what an invested and knowledgeable set of owners

I mean the Saudis. I don’t think they’re invested and nor do I think they know how to run a football club successfully.

Hopefully the profile of Hopkinson (is that him, the former Real Madrid fella ?) makes them think, "Here, just get on with it, We'll leave you to it"

[nufcjmc]

So who hasn't travelled to work on all these vital and needed signings or we sacking off another week?

[Toon No9]

Mika Biereth, former Arsenal youth striker, now with Monaco would be a good signing. 13 goals in 16 games, 22 year old Danish international, born in England.

Hasn't he just signed a new contract

My question would be more why is the position still not filled? We’ve had the best part of a year knowing that eales will be leaving. Yet we we appear to wait until the end of the second transfer window after finding out that news to do anything about it. I don’t see an engaged, knowledgable or capable ownership. I see another rudderless disappointing summer where we’ve needlessly alienated key players and failed to address an inadequate playing squad. It’s boring and stupid.

Maybe Hopkinson was seen as worth waiting for and he's had to undergo so sort of notice period ?

Maybe so. I personally don’t see an engaged ownership.

No, the thong enthusiast.

[wyn davies]

Any strikers around Wizzas age that could do a job for us for the next couple of seasons , fire fighting but we need to do something due to the Isak issue.
