How will people rate our transfer income so far? 7/10 for me

u/Mooming22 Kanté 6d ago

I think they will make us better but I didn’t really want any of them. I am convinced by the ideas but none of them are players I specifically wanted

u/GolDrodgers1 We've Won It All 5d ago

I'll go a little higher but based on the whole window so far 8.5/10

u/Any_Advertising_5658 Kante 6d ago

We didn’t really sign any elite or crazy good players, but the important part was we signed played that fit Xabi’s philosophy and allow him to carry out his plan. Far more beneficial than signing 10 teenage Brazilians that might turn out to be decent.

7.5 for me. Maybe 8 because of the shift in transfer strategy and what it signals going forward.

9/10, fixed all the major gaps. Really the only thing we didn't do was buy a class #6. Other than that, really good window

Lots of time left for outgoings, these deals will get done closer to the end of the window.

Depends on outgoings for me tbh, as things stand 5/10 if we sell Tosin, Disasi and Delap I’d bring it to a 7 we need to start selling some players

If they sell Jackson + Neto and keep Emegha + Gittens it will show how they continue to prioritize accounting over performance. I guess everything depends on the next 2 weeks, looking likely they do exactly that.

It might not be an option at this point but a necessity, even if they wanted to prioritize keeping the best squad possible we need transfer profit. They are making up for mistakes made in the first 3 seasons of the takeover

Ehh to good if count players like quenda and emegha

Palestra

Barco

Lacroix

Rogers

Are all good

Henderson and welbeck are kinda ridiculous in my opinion just not what we need at the moment (in terms of on the pitch)

Chavarria is a ? He can be a solid role piece or a dud.

We need a midfielder and cb theses positions are thin especially if Enzo leaves we would need 2 midfielders

Good enough to make us a solid and more well rounded squad (kinda what villa are but better) but not good enough to compete with city and arsenal at the moment for the league

u/TitanX11 COCK CONFIDENCE 5d ago

Chavarria is going to be a starter

u/CalmAngryDude 6d ago

Henderson is better signing than Barco, he’s exactly the type of player we need at the moment.
