Was speaking to a couple of blues when we were away in Cornwall at the weekend, what they were saying sort of points to this. Their opinion was that we haven't made a signing yet that made them go "wow, we mean business"

None of them have made me think "oh hey up", but im very, very pleased with them all, Pickford and Keane have massive potential, Klaassen is just everything we as fans look for, he will be an idol, Sandro and Rooney will score goals, we have improved the squad so much.
I think Rooney is going to have much bigger impact than most people expect.
He is trying to take the pressure from himself in any interview I have seen , I think he is trying to load it onto himself. He likes being the main man and wants that again.
I expect that in the new season the comments will be about his speed and fitness rather than the quality of his football..which has never been in question.
Later in the season I can see SKY really focusing on the Lukaku/Rooney swaps and looking at who got the best deal. I don't believe Utd ever considered that Rooney may be a bigger success than Lukaku, but I certainly would not dismiss the idea.

The signings have been 'sensible'..
Young PFA Award nominees in Keane and Pickford along with Sandro are the standouts for me.
I'd have had 3 players before Klaassen but his signing allows Davies some growth room.
Onyekuru we don't see and Rooney is a lever to get in top players to follow...lets see.

I agree to a point, but when you look at our team from last season, if I'm honest 7th was the best we could hope for with the team and squad we had. Although not 'wow signings' we have significantly upgraded our starting team and squad. Yes we could have instead spent 100m on buying 2 x 50m players. Would those 2 players of that ilk, improved the team more than the players we have bought. Also would these higher level of player even want to come to the club in its present state? I doubt it. But next year they might!
More or less what I said to them Goat. Also, the 2 lads were only about 19 like.
Would be VERY interested to hear the names of these 3 players, VERY
Rooney will prove to be the signing of the summer, prepare the vault.

I should have added 'from Ajax'...late here now.
Dolberg, Sanchez, De Ligt.
All 3 will be world class players. Klaassen ticks along...

And Marcos Alonso on the other side. Imagine the fume on here if we'd picked up Victor Moses and Marcos Alonso last summer!
A 21 year old, a 19 year old and a 17 year old, colour me utterly stunned.

They obviously dont remember some of the windows we had under Moyes, Smith and Martinez!
Hey @Dutch Toffee has Jetro Willems ever lived up to his potential? Do you think he could be good enough to push Baines for the starting spot if the staff don't think Antonee Robinson is ready?

Just like Gueye last season, we've signed 2 absolute bargains in Rooney and Sandro.
I don't think De Ligt would be interested in joining up with Unsy's U23 squad. Make no mistake, he would get utterly destroyed in the Premiership.
