Pretty much what I was told too. 

What were the other players you were confident about us bringing in?

Might as well say the names now its not happening?

[SheppyFox]

There are still 6 teams with stronger squads than us, we’ll be relying on one side under performing now we haven’t spent any money.

Fortunately 2 of those 6 teams have totally unproven managers running them.

Deal sheets have to arrive before the deadline, sometimes then takes a little while to get ratified. Clubs wait until that's done before announcing.

One of whom has lost the creator/scorer of a huge chunk of their goals and not been able to replace them.

In interested to see who you feel they are? Because I can only name three that are clearly better.

 

Man City

Spurs 

Liverpool

 

From there down to tenth I’d say it’s pretty much even.

Tielemans, Perez and the sale of Maguire were done in plenty of time some people just like a good moan! Get a grip

Well Tielemans took forever to get sorted after he was spotted on a plane, Perez was out of the blue so nobody knows how long that took and Maguires contract was wrapped up quickly because once a fee was agreed Man Utd dealt with it, not us. We knew he was coming over last night, surely someone would have talked about wages before him taking a flight? I don't see how it can take all day, it baffles me when other deals were seemingly done in less than 5 hours for other clubs.

I'm not sure mr pitchfork can't wait an hour and 40 minutes. I guess I'll use the time to decide how to partition out the hate between Rudkin, Susan and the ITKs who may know have been as in the know as they thought.

Enjoy the fun. Hopefully see you all after. 

Well, what happened @LinekersApples @Ashley??

[Lestoh]

Bad news lads, 14 seconds too late with the paperwork

[UpTheLeagueFox]

"There are 6 deal sheets involving Premier League clubs for potential transfers after the 5pm deadline. This buys the clubs an additional 2 hours to complete the paperwork."

[Tielemans63]

I've got that sinking feeling.....

Better tell the club in Jan then to get the deals sorted in 5 hours because you get too stressed. That should do the trick

Really? Chelsea perhaps but United and Arsenal are well short. Throwing money around doesn’t necessarily mean anything. We’ve invested wisely, and the signings we have made have improved is considerably. I think a few will underestimate us this season.
