May as well
I don't think it's been a bad window at all except for yesterday's midfield debacle. We've kept our stars, we've lost one first team player and replaced him with someone I think will prove to be a very capable keeper. We've brought in a young defender than many think will do well and has that commodity we need to play a high defensive line - pace. We've made an extremely exciting player a permanent signing, brought in a talented winger which at the very least covers Neto's injury and added another body to the front line in a player that apparently was vetoed by our previous manager (but now isn't good enough for some anyway!)
I understand there's a lot of frustration at yesterday, I'm still utterly perplexed at how we've managed to end up with just three midfielders and someone at the club needs to tell us how the hell that has happened, but overall, for no net spend I actually think it's been a decent window. With a Sanches added it would have been at least 8/10 in my eyes, but think leaving us so short in a key area it has to get knocked down to a 6/10 at best
Just hope Lage is happy to continue the work he's begun. It would be very interesting to know his thoughts, and whether he'd have preferred to cash in on Neves and/or Traore to get more players in
