We don't have the wingers to play a possession based game. Every other possession maybe. Ramsdale in for Pope, Hall for Burn, Joelinton out and either Miley or Ramsey in, but our wingers are all far too slack with the ball.

Yeah, sometimes managers, systems etc just have a shelf life. Players need new inputs, stimulation etc. Hopefully, that's not what's happening here, but it also might be.

What would it take for it to be time for you Kev?

Yeah Burn for Botman is the only change I'd expect from that. Can't see Botman starting 3 games in a week.

Yeah it would be better for everyone. It would have to be a change across the European leagues though.

We weren't the only doing late deals though. In an ideal world you get everyone in, but us, Arsenal, Liverpool, Spurs, Man United, Aston Villa all did sizeable deadline day deals

If you add Miggy into this, it is even better.

I do think there are some small differences between the two situations, but overall players have to respect their contract, and if Brentford don't want to sell him, that's their right. Players downing tools is not the right way to try and get a deal

Yeah, I think he will help at set plays and the fact that we often are in positions where there isn't space in behind so crossing becomes key. Also his link up play is at a different level. Back to goal and in tight spaces he's elite. Won't score the goals of Isak, but is better in other ways.

Yeah, I have been hoping for this to happen since the Euros. Was really impressed by him this summer. He's like a better version of Crouch but a worse version of Zlatan. Still plenty of time to improve too.

They are my tip for the league. They need a bit of luck with injuries, and Gyokeres to click, but I think this will be their year

Murphy, Rondon, Merino, Schar, Pérez, Joselu. What was Rafa building?

This is a societal problem, which goes wider than football. The same people who tarnish (tarbish🤣) all football fans of a certain team with the same brush also think all Muslims are terrorists, immigrants are looking for a free ride, trans people are paedos etc. Daily mail readers with small brains.

That was actually how the team was set up which I saw online.

Yeah, I reckon his wages would be out of reach for us. I am not sure he would want to come either. Atleti guaranteed CL every season.

Yeah, you can't sign both. Thiaw, Watkins, Jackson, McGinn would be decent, but one of the aims of the window was to lower the average age of the squad. Not sure McGinn or Watkins or Wissa are really aiding that

Ramsdale is definitely an upgrade on him as is Elanga on Miggy. Trying to find the positives in an otherwise dreadful window. 😂😂😂

31 in October. Just doesn't seem like as us signing

For me Watkins is the safest hands if Isak is to go. Gives you three years of 15+ PL goals guaranteed, and then go with a younger CF alongside. Woltemade, Samu for example. I also am happy for it to be Watkins and Jackson or Watkins and Ramos

It's almost laughable. I think any doubt that anyone had about Fab being on the payroll of certain clubs has completely disappeared after this window.
