I think its worth repeating BT that 2 of the 3 new players were forced on us (Goalkeeper and Centreback) due to circumstances of late non-signing by incumbent and two unexpected injuries.

Where are the the real transfers that we needed before this?

Saying we got 3 is misleading when 2 were absolutely necessary in much more recent times.

But the 5 we needed actually turns into 1.

And that's very poor.

We still don't have Brady and D4 so the pain and problem is far more acute.

January window? It's all over by then.
