3 or 4 U21 players in the group.

If we are done buying then at least for the first time in years we can say that we aren't starting the season thinking "all we need now in the next window is this."

We've addressed all of our needs. We don't NEED any other starting XI players.

Jose completely and expertly trolling Arsenal with the part about Cesc in that BT interview!

[Special Juan 28,133]

We still need Varane, Khedira, Pogba, Falcao and Di Maria.

Then we are done.

You haven't learned anything from all of these years watching Jose, if you believe in that lol.

I don't see us buying anyone major besides those three unless we sell some players. I don't believe the rumours for Khedira, Pogba and Varane at all tbh.

Will be great if Lukaku stays with us this season, but if not, we are still short at ST. May be there is some truth in Drogba rumours. Last season Jose use all three strikers a lot, so having only two isn't sounds good.

Overall happy with Jose words, hope he will find real place in squad for some youngsters.

I think he'll stay, who would we buy to replace him?

Our midfield options are not quite enough just yet it has to be said. It's still lacking the killer punch, that bit of extra quality. Take out Matic and Fabregas (and even Ramires) and we're left with the likes of Mikel, Romeu, Chalobah, Van Ginkel etc. It's not really enough.

Tiago and probably Khedira will come in.

Gallito Vazquez or Hector Herrera:ph34r::ph34r:

We're also one injury away from Torres getting a lot of minutes again. We've had a good summer...so far. We still need another striker.

The comment on the three Brazilians was right on the mark. It's not about worrying whether they're mentally shattered from the WC results, it's about challenging them to pick themselves up and use that humbling experience as a catalyst to re-focus, to dedicate themselves to rising above the disappointment.

@Jason above: I have a feeling we'll sign Tiago.

[Jase 43,479]

Tiago and probably Khedira will come in.

While signing Tiago will add further number of options in the squad, people need to acting like he's only 25 y/o and is entering his prime/peak year. He's already 33, well past his peak and yet the way people have been going on about him is like he's gonna be our saviour in that midfield and thrash every player we come up against.

[Hutcho 8,443]

Wow. Some people just expect us to buy everything.

I'm amazed by the window we have had. We can't still expect after picking up one of the best strikers last season, one of the best left backs and cesc fabregas to still keep buying.

Come on guys be greatful for what we have got. Let United and Liverpool battle it out to massively overpay for players.

Sure if we get more reinforcements cool, but we signed 3 top quality players for value in this market... Offload some players for WAYYYY more than they are worth, and have enough young players to occupy a small town.
