My feelings exactly

Exactly. I think we are going to need to accept that and start moving forward.

That's an interesting point actually. I think we were all a bit surprised when he suddenly seemed to become first choice at RB ahead of Clyne...a last effort to keep him?

Where did you hear that? That's going to be our trouble now as our sales are so well documented!

I don't get the hype with Isgrove, he is no better prospect than Nathan Dyer.

I posted this on 'Koemans new squad' thread but probably a better fit here... It's clear that this is not a spontaneous occurrence, this has been planned for a long time which is precisely why NC left and Kat decided to appoint a motivational speaker rather than a football chairman. She thought he would be the best person to spoon feed us bullshi!t. I don't know what her motivations are but I suspect it's purely a money generating exercise now rather than progressive football club.

Sorry, no I don't believe that scenario to be at all plausible.

Thought he looked good, let's see him up against Lovren though.

No is the simple answer

If Koeman keeps us up next season he should win manager of the season award.

I'm pretty sure he said Margett not Marcos.

I wouldn't

Please someone stop me from going along with these thoughts! I'm not even a bed wetter but I feel like I'm changing

That's the trouble, we are and it looks ominous!!!!

The biggest issue is we have now set a precedent for every window while this lot are in the board room. We are now seen as easy pickings as soon as any of our players impress! Has there ever been a single window like this???! I rubbished any suggestions of major problems afoot or intentions to sell the club but it's becoming impossible not to wonder. The other big concern is why would anyone want to join us after such a public dismantling!

I can't understand that, he's awful! I can only hope we are getting Isla but I highly doubt that, why would he want to join a team embarking on a huge downward curve.

No he doesn't. As I posted earlier though, knowing his agent I'm not surprised he has been touting Callum out for a move. I feel physically sick. Generally I'm pretty considered and positive but this is one too many for me. There is something seriously wrong inside the club and we now need answers! I think even Koeman must be surprised by this one!

My concern is that we will be too easy to defend against. Stop the cross...

Yup, that's what I'm looking out for. If they don't refer to his absence then it tells us what we need to know IMO.

Knowing Callum's agent it wouldn't surprise me if he would be pushing to get him a move to be honest. I'm very concerned.

Uh oh, no Chambers in tonight's squad.....

I am convinced Lallana isn't going to get much of a look in this season, especially if they sign Marco Reus! I'm delighted by the fee we got for him to be honest.

Beat me to it! I'm sure it was United though?

Great news, I have huge faith in him reaching the top. Does anyone remember someone on here saying earlier in the window that Harry had negotiated a transfer to Man Utd?!
