We have Lees, Borner, Bates, Thorniley, Van aken and Hutch / Lorfa , a wing back would have given us another option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Night-Owl Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 (edited) Between 7 and 8 for me. Considering the soft embargo and losing Bruce, we're lucky to have done any business. The likes of Harris, Murphy and Moses look smart signings. I'm glad we kept Westwood and Lee. Bit disappointed to see Joao go and to have not brought Hector back but Luongo looks a cracking signing. Unsure about Borner and Bates to be honest. Most excited about Harris and Luongo, our best business was Westwood, Harris and Luongo. We still have a couple of areas to fill, perhaps in January we could get a couple more signings and get a couple more out. Our squad to me now looks the fittest and most balanced its looked since the two failed play off campaigns. It makes you wonder what might have been, if we had made similar signings after Wembley? I think in a highly competitive and wide open League, we've got a decent shot at making the play offs, with Bullen or with a new man. If Bruce had stayed, and we had got Hector, O'Dowda and a striker on loan, I reckon we would have had a shot at top 2. I think West Brom will win the League, not sure who will go up with them but I think we will make the play offs with this squad.

billyblack Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 A good 8 for me. If we had shifted FF and rhodes and signed a pacy striker it would have been a 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is your reasoning? Hmm, you conveniently leave out our, by a million miles, player of the season, Michael Hector. That alone, plus the departure of our one quick forward, means for me at least, that the window was merely OK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bouncing Owl Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 I think you’ve got to say 8/10. We’ve done well overall. I’d have liked hector to come back but fully understand the situation why we didn’t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james o connor Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 We have done excellent business under the circumstances . Added much needed pace and a new cm to boss the middle . Any moaning can only be the same deluded ones crying because we released hooper and all the other ageing crocks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIG D Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Solid 7.5/10 for me. Better than expected, not overjoyed to lose Joao but still, someone had to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMOwl72 Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 Think we need to wait and see exactly what we have got for our £. Signing Abdi from Watford was hailed as a coup iirc! Certainly glad that we have bought some pace into the team however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenwyne Jones , wickham , ben Marshall , hooper this list goes on . They left and that’s that . What’s to say borner won’t be better than hector or Bates might be better than both .
