I'm just glad its over. Transfer market is the most soulless, tedious shit in football. The daily tweets about a deal being still ONE TO WATCH. This shit is worse for the game than VAR. Football has got worse every year since around 2010.

Loaned in Jan not end of the world

NJ swap deal for Rogers surely Fucking insane this window what the actual fuck I guess the club got news that their preferred outcome was back on the cards after other transfers happened?

Yes absolutely Being regular scorers from set pieces is so underrated, it can carry you so much over a season The old good Chelsea teams were great at it and Arsenal rely on it to an extreme extent. If we can be dangerous in open play and dangerous from set pieces we'll be a genuine menace that everyone will dread to play. How it should be.

I mean, if the guy is chill and doesn't give a shit about hardly ever playing, will train well and be a nice lad in the squad then it is all good fmpov, just a bit random and probably pointless - but if it is loan like some of you are saying then hey why not, whatever. Its all just noise to distract from the fact we entered the summer with 3 foundational problems: GK, CB and ST. We've taken a stab at sorting out ST (bit of a risky stab but I don't mind it - looking promising so far) and totally bottled GK+CB. And then just generated a bunch of noise flipping and replacing players, removing players that were not difference makers and replacing them with players that are not difference makers. Pretty disappointing imo, especially as it is CLEAR Maresca wants solutions here and now for CB, and imo it is super obvious he would never have picked Sanchez to be his GK either. Cannot be surprised or even mad at him if we have another bad patch this year, the directors fucked him.

who the actual fuck is Facundo Buonanotte?

The only way Morgan Rogers is happening is in some kind of swap with NJ surely. Maybe mutually beneficial if he's asking for a move and they're trying to find a good, positive way to deal with it. I would be way more excited about Rogers than any of the other options but tbh any of these players are just going to be squad filler because realistically who are they displacing in the XI in PL games? Wharton is low key a bit of a baller and flying under the radar (as is Anderson at NFO for example, genuine talent that a top club should have gone for by now) as he genuinely is clearly a talented guy, but again its just squad filler, who cares I am gutted we have not fixed the key positions in the XI and spending all our energy on this nonsense instead, its all just noise distracting us from the fact the club have failed to invest yet again in the core spine of the team where PLs are won or lost

Don’t know how many times I have to say it chased = left on read because we didn’t care much he’s just one of a bunch of options the club is vaguely interested in but don’t rate all that much Even Spurs went for him as like a plan B or C after getting cucked on Eze

Garnacho is a perfect Maresca player so for squad filler pretty ideal pick tbh Much happier with him than Gittens tbh, he’s imo a better player, at something more resembling a price for players at that level.

Swear every time there is a long running transfer rumour because the club don't really think its that important and just leave and wait til end of summer to see if a good deal can be done, everyone freaks the fuck out, I cannot understand it whatsoever. If we really wanted any of these guys, we'd just get them and they would have probably even been with us for CWC - if they were actually important to the club. The only person we got cucked for this summer was Huijsen that chose Real over us, and we really wanted him and went fully in hoping to woo him. The rest is just filler that we don't care about almost at all, or it would have been done ages ago. People we think are worth it at the right price, but nothing special.

"Working on a deal all summer" = leaving him on read because we don't care that much The club did the signings they prioritised and wanted hard right away. The rest is filler. The club literally don't care that much so why should we if he ends up not joining? Not the clubs fault if the twitter ITKs rambled about it all summer to have something to say.

Hard to care about Simons, Garnacho, Fermin or whoever else when the two biggest problems in the squad are GK and CB, two positions with no rumours and the club don't give a fuck about, despite being the two things that would be transformational and genuinely elevate us if we sorted them out, instead we're losing our minds looking for squad depth in positions we already have/had reasonable options. Doesn't matter if we lose our on Simons and Spurs pay a fuck load for him. Its just squad filler we're stressing about here. That's why the club have not moved fast on any of it. They got the signings they thought were important done early.

Honestly find the transfer window so tiresome these days, can't wait for the window to be over. Really wish they'd do transfer deadline day before PL starts.

Imagine having LW your top priority after spending a fortune on Gittens I can understand we might need cover for him but if we're genuinely disturbed that we don't have a good enough starting LW option then we have made a fatal error and someone needs the sack

Hahaha word for word what I came to post
