With respect this will only be a good deal if Joe Hart plays like he used to. Doesn't matter how cheap he was or that it allowed HGP juggling, if he fails to revive his flagging career and has a couple of horror shows then with Gazza gone we are in trouble. I sincerely hope not but I still need convincing.

apologies.My bad, was reading loan rules regarding premier league players and clubs not overseas.
Foyth and Gazzaniga
They’re already both out of the European squad. So will need to be more leaving.
Though this was a nice quote from Jose regarding the striker situation :
"I am optimistic, but more than that the feeling that I like is that we are trying everything to do it. You succeed or you don't succeed. It's like a football match: you win or you don't win but you give everything and try everything. The transfer market is the same.
"I like the feeling that my club is trying to do everything for us and for the team, that's the most important thing for me. If we succeed then great - I believe so - but if we don't then that's football."
Illustrates the good relationship and mutual respect that currently exists between him and the board. Personally I'm confident a deal will be done by the end of this weekend. No desperate Monday dashing around sending faxes please.

Gedson? Lamela? I don't see more guys leaving...
Would still need to let 1 more foreign player go or not include them in the EL squad. Prem would be ok as Davies counts as homegrown in that.
Levy is definitely MOTM this window!Though this was a nice quote from Jose regarding the striker situation :

Carlos Vinícius is set to finalise terms on his #thfc transfer in London today. The striker will then undergo a medical with the club before completing his loan-to-buy move. [Football Insider]
Carlos Vinícius is due in London on Friday to complete his move to #thfc. |

Bet the media team are wondering how they can drag this out until at least Sunday....
The two who may need to leave for match time are sessegnon and foyth, and I'd have them both go out on loan. Also tanganga would be 5th choice if we somehow got skriniar over the line. I think you probably need 5 CBs but the poor lad won't get much game time if that were the case.
Otherwise Sissoko, Gedson and Lamela are probably up for leaving but they're all good depth, especially with our schedule and injury history.

I get the distinct impression he's saying to the fans "Right, I've brought Mourinho in and I've backed him to the hilt regarding players he wants/needs. Should this campaign not work out then don't fucking blame me !"
To be fair to the guy if this / next season don't turn out to be trophy winning ones he will have a point.
Shaping up to be our best window in a long long long long time.
So with Vinnie, were basically getting the portugese Andy Carroll, without the wife beating?
Yeah but ENIC OUT FFS LEVY...
probably ever! Most normal windows consist of us leaving holes in the team or the Bale one where we spent all the cash like a drunken sailor (it felt good though). This time fair play to Levy and the board if we get Skriniar then we have fixed most of the squad and with decent or exceptional quality.
Only outstanding position would be a deep lying midfielder, we have shoehorned Winks there but we don’t really have a genuine 6, an Allen, Fabinho type. If we had that I would say for the first time ever we had a complete squad.
Well I have to state this yet again, he can't get credit if we win a trophy and no blame if he doesn't.
He hired Mourinho, he's paying him 15m a year, if he fails, Levy has failed as well.
Good, but not worth 40M, not even close
