It's Quiet - a new dawn

Oh boy, what a numptie

I think Sanchez would have guaranteed us the title, as it is we're one of 3-4 teams in with a roughly equal chance.

We've got the best squad in the league regardless and one player never makes that sort of difference.

Fuck em all let's smash the league... Sergio, Jesus, raheem, sane, bald David, kdb, bernado... and some others...

Foden and Diaz.

I had an issue with all of the BS in his post, not just the Sanchez bit. Nothing is guaranteed.

Best footballers in our squad, but we easily drop points to bus Parkers and believe we will again.

I think we lost the title today. I know we can not forced Arsenal to sell but leave everything for the last day was a mistake. Start a season without a CB, a LB, and without another Striker/Winger, oh boy..

Fuckin 'ell! I come on bluemoon for the first time in ages and see this posted in both threads I've looked at so far. Chill out mate, it's August FFS.

I don't think any player guarantees a title. united may have won with RVP years ago but who knows if we'd have won if we got him. It's just opinions layered on top of group think.

I think Sanchez would have given us a better chance of winning the title though obviously. But the most important thing for me was how we might play as a team around him. I was hoping that he'd energize everything and the football would be so much more entertaining.

It's a real disappointment but hopefully in a few weeks we'll all be over it. Glad the window's finally closing.

Spot on Sanchez could play tonight and break a leg(hope he doesn't). It would have improved our chances and its a disappointment , we have a decent squad as it is though dangerously thin on left sided defenders.

 

[mosssideblue]

should've had a backup plan. Now we'll go into the season with two injury-prone strikers.

Kun and ?

Neither are injury prone,kun was fit all last season and gabby broke a toe

FFS I would have thought the comments to this shite you got in the Sanchez thread might have given you a heads up - clearly not

Debatable, with Sanchez we likely win that debate.

 

[TRUE BLUE NO1]

We still have needs at CB,LB and forward, foreign places available and clearly money to spend.....not disappointed in missing on Sanchez, Evans but why no backup options?


Atleast Bony sold, so not all bad!;)

Over the next few days a lot will be said about tolmie, but it shows how unpredictable this game is now due to it being a global business. Boardroom politics, posturing and brinksmanship.

Tolmie clearly knows people who are close to the action..all posted in good faith and 11th hour snags aren't to be predicted. Internet ITK's are great for giving an insight into the clubs thinking but can't be taken for gospel

They were probably sure that they could get both. Shit happens, everything can't always go smoothly. I think Guardiola will do well to win the title though, we clearly lack depth. Mangala and Delph not good enough

 

[Pubteam Lomas]

Tolmie seems ok. You either take it or leave it BUT like the news you don't have to read it/listen to it

Tolmie was spot on. Arsenal changed their mind. No one knew they would do that.

I agree mate......cant win them all but as you have rightly say, we lack depth in a few areas and it could cost us the league this season...

 

[Andrew___K]

Now 2 foreign places are taken by Mangala and Zinchenko, Zinchenko is staying, am I getting it right? What a weird window....
