It's Quiet - a new dawn

I didn't make it personal. You said something ridiculous (the transfer window has been open for less than two weeks and we've already signed three players, with a 4th on the way until he unexpectedly changed his mind, but apparently it's turning into a disaster) and have very few posts—that is most often the recipe for a troll.

3 new signings ???

So I have been silently trolling since 2013?! Come on I'm really not that sad. Just feeling anxious as I love the way we have been playing under Pep and worried our transfers and Txiki is gonna leave us short defensively yet again.

I am including Douglas Luiz as he may or may not be for the first team but is still a signing that has all but been confirmed.

In fairness, when we finished third, many posters said it would allow us to get signings in for pre-season so I assume those people are disappointed. It's a little too early to call it a disaster though. In fact, it's been decent so far but I can understand people wanting the fullbacks in asap.

Fair point! I hope more than anything to be proven wrong trust me!!!

Alves was all but confirmed

Probably not first team yet probably loaned out

2 first team signings but we need FBs

We've had many a troll with early join dates, but haven't actually started going at it until later. I wouldn't assume you would have "silently trolled", just created an account and waited until you were inspired to make a mark.

But I'll defer to your declarations of concern and just consider you one of the more melodramatic posters, then.

And this hypothetical situation would be Txiki's fault how?

I didn't consider him all but confirmed, while Douglas Luiz's current club has basically announced the sale.

And he may be for loan but he is still a signing. Regardless, 2 confirmed first team signings is perfectly reasonable for less than two weeks from opening of the transfer window. Especially when all the fullbacks we are going after are prized and their clubs know we need them (hence are likely to be difficult negotiations).

The statement was medlodramatic at best.
