Conte wasn't a proven winner?

Even Jose?

Yeah maybe if they were here instead of Poch we would have.

Poch had Kane, Dele, Eriksen, Walker and Rose all in their prime.

We had arguably the best back 5 in the lead at that time with Walker - Toby - Jan - Rose in front of Hugo. Kane, Dele, Eriksen and later Sonny up front. Dembele in the midfield.

How did that team not win anything?

Is a great question.

Poch made most of those players better though. Dele and Eriksen especially.

Poor tactics at crucial moments from a coach that did not have the experience of getting teams over the line at the final hurdle.

Looks like we are not going to sell as many players as I was hoping in this window. I thought we might buy a big named forward, but with Richarliason looking like staying I don't think we have the budget for a big name. Rumours of a 100 million war chest to spend sounds feasible, but 60 million on Eze doesn't leave much left. Maybe if we got Kubo or Toney for 40 mill that would do for this window.
