Sure, but most of them played their part in the success story. We all have been spoiled, difficult to adapt to life without the golden spoon...

Breath of fresh air is most times not the worst idea, imo. To be fair, one new player has already been bought, so we could be back...

The TV deals are helping, judging by our transfer patterns Roman stopped throwing in 'his money' in 2007 when our only money transfer was Flo funded by the Robben sale, January 2011 aside between 07 and 14 our net spend was realitvely low every window.

Last year we signed Baba, Begovic, Pedro, Papy and Hector for about £60m ish combined (can't be bothered to look at the exact figures), and sold Luis about £15m and Cech £11m, that's a £34m net spend with rumours we were going for Pogba and the Stones thing being a badly kept secret, if we pulled those two off, net spend would have been mid hundreds.

The Yokohoma deal, incoming Nike deal and TV money is giving us a chance to spend big again, Bats signing and strong Morata rumours alone really indicate that.

The question is which transfers you include in the balance sheet and when do the books close?! Maybe the sales of former players helped to fund last years players. I think over the recent years there was surplus, should also be taken into account. Some day a recalculation is perhaps necessary to finally put things to bed.

We were in for Stones, but how much?! That's the question. Moreover no one knows maybe if Stones  happened, Chelsea wouldn't have bought Pedro, so there's another lil' extra cash. Pogba, which club wasn't interested, sure we made Pogba a good offer, but don't know whether there were really about 80 mil. on the table. If a remember correctly, according to the media it started a bit late which leaves the door open whether the club was really keen on that guy. Mourinho was, but the club?!

If Morata comes, maybe Costa will be sold for about 50 mil. But yes, it could the case that the club wants to make some adjustments this time.

Jesus Christ... He would've been a huge addition to our squad, but who can blame him if he goes to City? UCL football, more money, working with Guardiola...

A lot of crying about what we haven't done and who we arent trying to sign...We are only 8 days into an open transfer window and our new manager isn't even in his trackie yet! Ffs give over and wait and see what happens. Plenty of time and despite the popular belief  that we are run by monkeys, they do get it right more often than not. The media mostly have NO idea what we're doing so hang tight and relax people

Looks like he is off to City. Maybe we should stick with Ivanovic? I think he can be useful in a 3 man defence......

We need to get rid of Ivanovic lol but we don't seem to go be busy in the market anymore.

So much crying for a transfer that's, more likely than not, not going to happen for both us and City. I will be very, very surprised if Bonucci leaves, and especially for Citeh of all places. Imagine that.
