To not sign a striker or right back is inexcusable. We are going into a new season with three strikers who scored 4 goals between them last season which is just tragic. This season is going to be a real tough slog and we will do well to stay up if Zaha had left then I would be saying certain relegation.

Roy must be fuming but of course he will be diplomatic. God help us if we get an injury crisis. If the style of play was dull and predictable last season it will only get worse now.

I'm happy about Cahill and Camarasa. No RB and no striker though so only 3 out of 10. Poor showing on the whole.

Well, it looks like all the positions in which we obviously needed to strengthen have been neglected. Again.

Cue a desperate January transfer window in which we belatedly run around trying to strengthen in these very same positions after a poor first half of the season.

I am more disappointed we didn't get a decent attacking full back in, they are not overly expensive, I never thought we would get a striker in, only if Wilf went,
Wilf, Ayew, Benteke and Wickham are your 2 from 4

Not signing a replacement for AWB is not just remiss it's absolutely criminal..!!

£50M we had for AWB we had 5 weeks ago and we have done nothing..!!

No doubt SP will say we have kept Wilf da de da..!!

Ward at right back - jeez he was not good enough 2 years ago - now he's even worse..!! Back up Kelly - really..!!

Our lack of ambition and investment is absolutely startling and totally revealing to all...!!

There are clearly huge problems at the Club and the radio silence from the board and SP just reinforces that..!!

As I have said before this will not change until SP goes - he's time is run if we are to stay in the Prem and was 2 seasons ago..!!

We are in deep do-do..!!

If only Wickham had stayed unfit we would then have had to buy another striker. So, right after we have listened to the platitudes that having Wickham back is like having a new player, we can now look forward to watching him playing for about 180 minutes before he goes back to the treatment table and then we are left with Benteke who will get half a dozen chances that he will undoubtedly spurn and his confidence will be shot for the rest of the season.

Hmm, assessment of the transfer window? Shockingly poor, lost our second best player, pissed off our best player, filled spots that didn't really need filling and forgot about the ones that did.
