So...we are the highest spenders in this window and it's a BAD window?

Come on. Rip the business we did in the summer, but let's not be ridiculous.
 
Do wonder if Burnley are using the incoming Keane money, dont remember them splashing the cash like they are today before.

Aren't we the leagues top spenders? Or close to.

Not bad. Koeman has clearly been impressed by Lookman, more than maybe? He thought he would be.

We should clear the deadwood out, give youth a chance, not buy players we don't need. Such are the cries during the season, yet as soon as the window opens people start getting out their net spend calculators and moaning about squad depth demanding tens of millions are spent on backup players. Madness.

I think Koeman will have been surprised by the emergence of Holgate Davies Calvert Lewin and Lookman as genuine options. Would people rather we bought four players and stunted their progression? He also has Bolasie and Besic to return from injury.

In terms of attacking options. Valencia Lennon and Kone are struggling to get a game currently. DCL and Bolasie are injured. Why would people want to add another expensive option to that list?

Ask koeman, he's the one who had a sulk in a press conference and demanded we needed more players... Since then we've signed one and got rid of five or so.

It's weird, properly weird...

Everything koeman and mosh have said this Windows has been the opposite to what's happened. Not really overly bothered about it, it's just a bit bizarre.

Do you really think Sissoko lied when he said we bid for him and he stalled? No, you dont You are just lying on here to try and help your point.

Mate with respect we bid for Shearer doesn't matter does it we could bid for Neymar doesn't mean we meet their asking price or player wants to come. Another pathetic attempt to appease fans

Exactly. Koeman was at the game last night. He knows the talent we've got.
