    Nice to have another day of seeing other clubs make signings.

    We haven't even had a shirt number change for a week or so.

    What you on about...we have had transfers

    Fixture transfers; Wolves and Hull games moved
  • FortuneseekerFortuneseeker
    Lukerz, I am just waiting for GSB to put that out on the official website.
  • HamstewHamstew
    You're right I'm being greedy.

    And a transfer of money to cover the interest payments

    GSB OUT

    Another signing for Villa.
  • FortuneseekerFortuneseeker
    Hamstew, the Aston Villa lucky numbers are £84 million spent this window and £227 over the last two seasons per the media. I can't be the only one who not only finds this distressing but alarming that G & S believe we are going to be alright without some real investment in the team.

    I want them to improve the team, but I still think we’re better than Villa despite them spending a fortune
  • Jorderz_Moyes_will_be_MoyesJorderz_Moyes_will_be_Moyes
    Yeah, Villa aren’t really the model to follow and I’m not sure why people think they are.

    They blew all that money last year and finished below us. Spending money for money’s sake is not a good idea - he didn’t work for Villa last time and it didn’t work for us on Haller, Anderson etc.

    I thought we were better than them before last season but then finished a few points ahead of them. Point wasn't really about Villa anyway just that other clubs are still managing to make signings. Just gutted that covid has only really hit the Stratford area financially.

    Clubs indicate its plural

    Still don't see it myself

    Newcastle, Everton and now Villa have made good moves

    But its been quiet windows for Fulham, Burnley, WBA, Brighton, Southampton, Palace and us

    Its not just us, Leicester have only signed one player, RB Timothy Castagne from Atalanta (£25m) and Burnley have only signed GK Will Norris from Wolves (?).

    But then they did much better last season than we did so they don't need to do much.

    So Diangana scores already .................... >:)

    Written in the stars - shame we had to sell to buy!😭

    And for £12mil.....

    Shambolic transfer
  • HamstewHamstew
    I'm actually sick. I hate this club atm. Owners have ruined my love for them.

    BBC just posted “Mark Noble won't have enjoyed watching that goal...“

    You just know if that was Anderson he would've slowed it down and waited for support and play a safe pass
  • yoyoyoyo
    It's early days with Diangana but I must admit he looks lively , with some nice touches as well as his speed

    Bilic gets red card

    Ham, after the publicity about the Haller payments being missed, who would really want to do business with us .................

    Sorry WHU I don't reckon their transfer dealings have been anywhere as bad as ours & it's not based solely on money spent. Fulham have signed seven new players although mainly on loan deals but it's still 7, Palace got Eze plus two others, Burnley are in the same boat as us it that they have done next to nothing, Soucek was from January for us, before he is used as a fact to beat me with! Brighton five, Southampton have spent £22 million+ on two but I admit one was previously on loan (KWP) & West Brom another 7.

    Will have to agree to disagree

    Think Southampton are weaker as they lost Hojberg, KWP is as you said a loan player

    Brighton have only signed Veltman & Lallana, the others are kids. Dunno how good Veltman is, but Ajax letting someone go for less than £1mil is odd given how much they normally charge. Lallana is a potential Wilshere

    Fulhams approach seems scattergun, going for quantity over quality, the exact type of window we panned on our first in the LS and same thing they did when they were relegated. Big mistake imo

    WBA have the exact same window as us as their only 2 major signings are loanees they had last year

    I would give you Palace, but if Zaha goes then it very much becomes an awful window. Batshuyai has never shown his consistent ability

    Sheffield United have swapped Ramsdale for Henderson, arguably a downgrade and then some kids

    Don't think Leeds have done well either. Koch covers White who I think was their best CB, and Rodrigo isnt a guaranteed success

    Unless Silva hits the ground running, Wolves are weaker on paper losing Jota and Doherty

    Leicester are the same, with Chilwell swapped for Castagne who is an unknown

    I think we will make a couple moves before the window closes

    Of the above teams, the only deal I'm envious of is Eze, and he isn't proven at this level
  • FortuneseekerFortuneseeker
    WHU, Very good response. =)

    I'd still like us to have a boost of the owners signing someone in a position we require, as opposed to signing a cheque to themselves covering interest on payments

    Regardless of what other teams have done or comparing, there's no getting away from the simple fact our's so far has been............beyond poor IMO
  • BarneyBarney
    But the window is not closed yet..............we could get even poorer.
    i think we will get 2 or 3 in but whether they are the right calibre remains to be seen
  • FortuneseekerFortuneseeker
    Declan is not for sale at any price according to recent reports but Chelsea haven't put a proper bid in yet.

    On a lighter note, has it not amazed anyone how big Gareth Bale's mouth is......He could literally eat an apple though a tennis racket.....
