So, at this stage, bearing in mind some recent results, can we decide if this will be a weak league this year or a strong one?

An awesome transfer window for United!
Cavani. Old stiker who can't play at centre back!
Van de Beek. Midfielder who can't play at centre back.
Amad Diallo. 18 year old winger who's not Jadon Sancho and can't play at centre back.
Facundo Pellestri. Another 18yr old winger who's not Jadon Sancho and also can't play at centre back.
Alex Telles. Attacking left back who can't play at centre back.
Well done Woodward.
To be fair, our youth set up is full of terrific young players who will easily get us promoted from The Championship next season!

Personally, quite happy with the Arsenal transfer window.
In: Soares, Mari, Partey, Gabriel, Cebellos (loan), Willian, Runarsson, Aubamayang re-signed, Martinelli re-signed.
Out: Guendouzi and Torreira, both on loan.
Thought we may see a couple more out, maybe still will, we have to do a bit of juggling on the list today to meet the 17 non home grown list. I think we'll see two of Sokratis, Kolasinac, Elneny and Mustafi dropped out of the squad.

Spurs probably had one of the best windows in the league, but still a question mark at centre back. Obviously Skriniar was a bust so in the end we were linked to Swansea's Rodon. Never heard of him and quite a step down target-wise. But he comes highly recommended. Not sure if we've got it over the line yet (deadline is a bit longer for English league clubs I believe) but if he does join, I hope he doesn't impact on the chances that Tanganga gets, because he looks a real prospect. I only wanted to bring in a CB if they were top tier really.

They could drop Ozil out of the squad, and then one other, and the numbers work. If you need 9 CBs that is.

Going on his two performances against us in the CL last year, Arsenal could have made one of the signings of the summer in Partey.

Well we bought a centre half and a defensive midfielder so cant complain on that front, albeit hate the way we went about the Partey deal (just pay the release clause)
On the downside we really havent cleared out much of the deadwood at all and still have a horrendously inflated wage bill and an unbalanced squad. Expect a few championship sides will be sniffing round for some cheap loans next week (Martinez also an out to for good money to your list)
Everton managed to move on Walcott, 50-50 on wages, for the season, and sold Sandro, a gamble that did not come off. We still have Bolassie but hopefully we will loan him out along with Besic, both likely to go to Championship clubs I suspect. Tosun is long term injured so it will be January before we can move him on.
All in all, not too bad on that front now. We have a relatively clear view of the squad.

It's totally bizzare.
United made a big deal about not paying over 30's big wages or agents big fees. Yet they've after a bad start they've gone against that and got Cavani who wasn't even a target until this week. Just screams clueless and panic buy! I do think Cavani if he stays fit will be such a massive upgrade on Martial or Igahlo it will paper over a few cracks for a year or so. They've missed out on Haaland and Werner in the meantime who fit the 'new mould' too and would be better long term prospects and investments. Not to mention Sancho who will be the best right winger/forward in the world for the next decade.

Now I really hope he does well and I appreciate everyone has a right to their opinion, but that is a massive statement.
Was watching Harry Redknapp on SSN and he was saying Cavani smacked of a panic buy as he'd apparently been punted around clubs all over Europe before United snapped him up. I guess they are looking at what Ibrahimovic brought a few seasons back and hoping for a similar effect in terms of getting some sort of positive reaction throughout the team. Not sure though.
I think Walcott back to Southampton is great for the Saints. I think he still has a massive respect and affection for the club that started his career and he perhaps realises with age (31 I believe) and injuries this is perhaps a last chance opportunity and he'll give it a good shot as long as he can stay healthy. I also think he has enough to make a difference to the Saints going forward
Walcott has a worse record than Shane Long in the last few years. We already have a winger with no end product in Redmond.
As much as I’ve always wished him well, Walcott isn’t the answer to any question I’ve heard a Saints fan ask.....

Who is the most expensive, useless player we can borrow during the transfer window?

Take your pick from several I can think of. Two of them are German, but I could throw in a Brazilian, and a couple of others.

What's the obsession with a centre back? United don't need to look any further than Phil Jones
