Doubt it.
The daft thing is that if we bought Richarlison, Bissouma, Perisic, Djed, and Linglet this evening people would be both elated and moaning that we didn't sign them sooner.
Depending on how Liverpool steady up; I think 2 - 4 will be fascinating this season.
Going from 4th to making City sweat in one window never seemed realistic to me..... I was concerned that Conte wouldn't be satisfied with that outlook, but he seems comfortable with the idea that we had more than one window's worth of work to do so on we push.
YEAH!!I thought Chelsea were ambitious and always got the players they wanted.
Honest John what's going on???
Every player's "Get-able" once you have ambition right?
Very poor so far
Gelson Martins could be a fun addition. A real tricky dribbler that is able to carry the ball.
his contract expires in 2024 so Monaco may be interested in selling him now as well.

Lukaku <> PEA was always part of the masterplan. :contethumb:
re £150m
if I remember the club statement rightly, they said at the time that that total was not for transfers alone. I think ally gold said something about £100m being made available to spend plus any income from player sales.
if that's the case, are we about there? some quick, dirty maths...
out £105 (£135m including add-ons)
in £23m (£37m including add-ons)
difference £82m (£98m including add-ons)
I mean, that figure is proper dirty, no loan fees or signing on fees taken into account, player sale percentages owed etc. Plus, no one really knows exactly what money is paid/ received
still, enough for one more?

My expectations were we have a window where we're not necessarily knocking on City's door but neither are we overly worried about finishing 5th. Not saying I expected us to totally piss it, but at least to build on last season.
I don't currently think that happens. It's gonna be another horrid top 4 battle for us.
I don't think money is directly the issue.
Big name but I don’t know enough about him. I guess we will see soon if he comes to Saints.
Both options would be Sanchez/Tangana upgrades
They can have them all second raters not for us
Looks like Chelsea got Auba... good move for us. He'll no doubt make the locker room a toxic environment in a couple months.
Funny; he was hot-shit on here last summer..... Not a peep about him this summer from anyone.

: "We should have been in for him" meme. 
We've obviously had a good window but it's strange to me that we didn't have more a plan for replacing Gil.
I'm sure Conte made it clear early on that he wasn't up to snuff so why haven't we brought someone better in?
We are now stuck with a player Conte won't use and it will stunt Gil's development, if he is ever to become a PL ready player.
We were strongly linked to Zainolo so obviously an additional attacker was in mind but we really had no alternatives to the sick note?
Lucas and Gil are fine for early rounds of domestic cups but we basically only have Richarlison now as someone that can come on and change a game.

We were linked to him last summer right? Things went super quiet. Now linked to the Saints? Says a lot about his season
