Dreams of 1995 4887 Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 Oh well. Another window over. I guess we will have to wait for our annual "I was wrong" by Mercer predicting 20 million pound savings, club tittering on the edge of oblivion and all his other doomsday predictions. Now we will "walk it". Man is a walking contradiction, but nevertheless it is hard to feel anything but joy at todays business so I won't spoil the occassion. Anyone else excited for the game tomorrow? Jesus, I've not felt giddy in a while. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And is there any talk of a fee? I’m not sure he’s done a lot wrong. The turnover in our goalkeeping department is quite high lately. Benson continues unaffected. Bit of a theme at the club really.

Wood26 427 Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 I’m so excited we signed Harvey Elliott I forgot for a second we finally signed a decent left back! The only thing that can ruin my weekend is playing a crap team with a new manager...oh wait Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tonygreenbank 502 Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 I know I’m a positive person but today’s deals have totally blown me away! I could never have envisaged such personnel arriving and even getting Mulgrew to sign for Fleetwood! I’ m sure every club wants to strengthen during the window but I can’t think of another club in our league who has done as well as us. Time for a little bet on the top 6 at least.

JacknOry 4996 Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 (edited) Summary of other clubs: Cardiff got Dillon Phillips Millwall bagged Zohore on loan Forest loaned Knockheart Cardiff loaned Harry Wilson (odd fit in my book) Swansea loaned Palmer (odd same division loan for someone Bristol spent quite a bit on) Those are the bigger ones, have I missed any?

Some really good signings there. Swansea have also signed a young defender from City, are in talks with free agent Fabio Borini and have sold Joe Rodon to Spurs. Cardiff have made a couple of very good signings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think us, Forest and Cardiff have been the biggest movers in the transfer window. When you look through Forests squad its just wow. Cardiff, not so much but they have brought in some good players but i dont think they were the right club for Wilson (probably the only one willing to stump up for him).

Hilton is supposed to be the most rated out of our young keepers and Fisher is not really that young anymore. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Didnt want to say but that is my concern also. I have said all along we needed another CB as cover - due to having a very injury-prone backline. Not complaing though, otherwise an exceptional window in my view. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Shows our growing reputation with young players and the trust that the likes of Koop and Liverpool have in our set up. Its clear that we are emulating our style of play on theirs - combined with a good start to the season, it is easy to see why we would be a good option for some of their young players.

Guessing finances dictated who we went for, but as you say, great to have that relationship! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
