That's a good point. That must mean that Johnson will be better than Kane!
I actually agree. They’ve not had a good window at all. Havertz is an awful signing, genuinely terrible. Pointless waste of money.
Rice is class and Timber did look good pre unlucky injury. But I don’t view them as much better having spent a lot of money.
He doesn't want a transfer, he wants to leave free next year and go abroad to the place of his own choosing. What we should have done was loaned him to Burnley for the season when they asked, then that would have been that, we'd have saved at least a portion of his wages.
Funny though.

THat second sentence is key, we sold the best English striker since possibly Greaves, and replaced him wiht Brennan Johnson. They didn't lose anyone important, only strengthened.
Shitting on Woolwich always brings us back together eh
Honestly don't know how their fans aren't rioting. Amazing what winning the net spend will do for some fans.
I’m just so fed up of this shite. Can’t wait till 11pm
I'm not too unhappy with our forward line.
Ultimately I don't think we have the pull to attract an elite 70m+ attacker, while Solomon Son Johnson could be an exciting front 3 with pace and skill.
The real crime is what has happened at CB.
It all hinges on HavertzShitting on Woolwich always brings us back together eh

I was saying Gallagher wasn’t a pressing issue really.
If that's our lot I reckon we will finish top 6, possible top 4 or potential title tilt. Hard to call but dont think we will have a bad season like some pundit pricks have predicted. January I reckon we will get Toney. Have a bet on that.

Havertz is shit, and they should have got a proper striker, but those are rarer than unicorns right now. On the other hand they didn't lose one of those unicorns, they strengthened their midfield significantly with Rice, and Timber is good depth at CB.
Other than depth in various positions, they couldn't have done much to improve.
Remember Alan Sugar
Sabotage from Levy.
He knows that if either leaves he needs to spend another 30m on a new CB
They are up against FFP because of the last few years.Shitting on Woolwich always brings us back together eh

Yeah, who has been pretty poor for them so far.
Not sure they have any real cover for Oodegard or Saka either, let alone Rice.
Disclaimer Levy is a bald cunt and my post in no way absolves him of being so
A well-balanced post, for once. Could we have gotten one or two more signings? Probably. A backup CB should have been prioritized. Did not shifting the deadwood hamper us? Definitely, and that's past failures still haunting us. But is it critical at such an early stage in the Ange project that we get all the pieces of the puzzle in place? Not really, especially since Ange is still trying to figure out the puzzle.
And I'm not buying the "replace Kane" argument. It is always a recipe for disaster when you try to replace a WC player, and a CF at that too, of which there are just a handful of decent ones. Rather, you change the system to get the same goals from other sources and that is exactly what Ange is doing. Let's give him a chance to prove it out, yeah?
He turned down an offer where he'd actually have to compete to be 1st choice
