How do you assess our transfer business?

I liked this from Project River on his twitter account.

How would you describe the other 18 teams in the PL that finished a country mile behind us last season? We are stronger than we were last season with the addition of Ake, Torres, a fit Laporte, Foden getting more time and better every game, hopefully a back to form Bernardo. Add hopefully another strong right side CB, Rodri second season settled in and things are exactly looking as grim as you make out.

The word "hope" is doing a lot of legwork there.

Shouldn't we being striving for near certainty?

I hope we sign Ake, i hope we sign torres, i hope Laporte comes back from his injury, i hope Foden is one of the best young players in world football and getting better every game, i hope Bernardo can become a world class player. No hope there, all absolute certainties. We almost certainly will sign another CB and Rodri will be better this season after a season settling in.

Shit team seriously Jesus
You needed to be around in the 80s
We are transitioning slightly lost a few legends but it’s also a whole new world with Corona and minimal / unknown income streams maybe our plans had to change

Ahh, the famous double clarkie with a reverse twist. I salute you.

Again that's a lot of hope, including hoping Rodri having a better year.

It just seems insane to me that for all the money that has been spent, all the waiting to have the dream manager of Pep that we should go into this season (after a poor previous one) so unbalanced, so many weak areas of the team, and so much uncertainty.

I think you missed my sarcasm.

In your opinion, in mine we have a better squad than anyone else and with adding a centre back the best team.

Disappointing (so far).

I don’t think we’ll see the best of Torres this season but Ake should strengthen our defence.

If we fail to make any more recruitments, we will do very well to finish second. But I’m hopeful Bernardo will be back to his best and Jesus can establish himself as one of the best forwards in the league.

I’m surprised and a tad disappointed we aren’t seemingly in for Aouar though.

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

I don't. I wait until the transfer window has finished before I judge it. Like a normal person.

None so blind than those with blue tinted specs.
