It's Quiet - a new dawn

Is this now confirmed?

Well Txixi certainly said no Mbappe this window. Don't know about Alexis though.

Got a feeling Pep will play 352 with Sane LWB again tomorrow to try prove his point we need a forward and LB/CB. Hope i'm wrong though...

This squad still has glaring weaknesses which shows the size of task that Pep has.

Also shows the poor squad management before he got here.

Thanks @bondsman did respond saying that he thought they were dead in the water as opposed to confirming it

about zero chance of dortmund letting auba leave if dembele goes.

I don't think we are in for him anyway, i'm just not sure why we are not.

Mendy not fit yet ?

If only we could get Stu Pearce back to sort the glaring weaknesses out ;-).

Not yet but sadly looking likely. Think it's very unlikely we are getting mbappe to in particular. I live in hope.

It was only messi and mbappe named I thought? Sanchez by all accounts is still a potential option. Time is tight but I think that has been Arsenals preference. Most business we have done with them has been late in the window.

I don't think he's ready yet...not been picked by France but Pep might wanna keep him for Liverpool

I'd not be surprised either. I have to admit that Pep's stubbornness has surprised and disappointed me last season. On one hand I'll moan about it but on the other I hope that his decisions are shaping the long-term rather than just one game.

Now that the season has started I don't feel as confident about us as I did in the summer but it's early days and at the very least it's very interesting.
