Koeman says the business isn't done even with Gylfi signing.
Clearly, we have had a so called list of 3 positions to fill for weeks and Gylfi is the first one in since. Be amazed if we failed to get a striker and defender in and may do more depending on who we shift out.
 
It's been a decent window so far but we need a striker and a partner for Keane to make it a good one.
Yes we signed
Pickford , young English international
Keane young English international
Klassen young Dutch international and Captain of Ajax
Sandro a highly rated Spainish international and a product of the Barcelona youth system who was wanted by Athletico Madrid amongst others
Rooney , Man united Captain and England's record goal scorer
Siggy Swanseas best player and the best playmaker outside the top six for a club record fee ( which was broke twice this summer )
We also signed 3/4 highly rated English and European players under 20 yrs of age
We did lose Lukaku
But yea it was a DECENT window
 

If Chris woods even as a squad player is the height of our ambitions god help us
He's an established goal scorer mate who'd realistically be an option as a squad player and plan b. We need strength in depth which includes versatility to change from the high pressure game we re set up for. Arsenal have giroud to come off the bench and change tactics there aren't many of him around who'd sit in our bench are there? I'm not comparing players there of course but system changes need different types of players we have no options.
 
Would like the players who offer nothing to be moved on please ...

Might upset some people, but if McCarthy isn't being sold, then get rid of Besic. If McCarthy is getting sold then keep Mo. Shift Lennon, dump Robles to give him a fair chance of having a good career elsewhere. Barkley needs kicking out of the door asap. That (McCarthy, Lennon, Robles, Barkley) ought to pay for Sigurdsson, meaning not only could we end up having a negative net spend, but our wage bill should be down too YoY!
Are we playing accountancy or football
Just asking for the net spend brigade
 

Ronnys just said we have 17 players for tomorrow and people are suggesting we move on half the squad, baffling.

The injuries are not helping and are clouding it over a bit.

Coleman and Bolasie will certainly offer pace and a bit of strength when they return as will Barkley if he is staying, but McCArthy, Robles, Niasse and Lennon are just passengers now and need moving on.
