Any disappointment is down to the failure to move players out and off the wage bill.

Big Efe.
Heard it said he's on 10k a week or that he's months away from UK citizenship, personally I think he loves Scotland, probably settled, kids in school etc and can't be erzed with the upheaval...either that or he wants to ram it up his doubters.

Not sure what there is to be disappointed about. We brought in some quality players - Sinclair, Toure, Gamboa, De Vries and Dembele and we made the group stage.

We got rid of johansen, mulgrew and a few other dead wood.

Thats a cracking transfer window in my book.

It's a wee bit disappointing but consider this.

If Ronny or Lenny was the manager we would have got someone in. It wouldn't necessarily have been a player the manager wanted but it would have been someone.

It doesn't work that way now and in the long run we'll be all the better for it. The money that we had available will still be there in January and beyond.

Meanwhile since the end of last season we have signed Dembele, Toure, Sinclair, DeVries and Gamboa. Not to mention the best signing of all, Brendan Rodgers.

I'm feeling pretty optimistic.

Mulgrew wasn't ours.

Johansen was the only one we got cash for the deadwood was only Janko and Allen and they were on-loan, not off the wage bill.

Have our rivals made any progress in this window?

The answer is no, so we have moved even further away from them with our signings.

the way i'm looking at it is that if the manager had really wanted someone, we would have got them.

confident of that

Thoughts on Jozo?

In my opinion if he is fit enough to pass a medical (which he claims he did) then he is fit enough to be in contention for squad or will he suddenly develop an injury recurrence?

i dont view it as happy clapping zach, kolo, sinclair, de vries, all guys that we know the manager wanted to be fair.

i wanted a CM, but i trust the manager.

lets be honest if i didn't feel this way then i would be the first to say so

Thank God we've got over 50,000 season ticket holders, solid sponsorship deals and £30m CL money to come.

We also brought in Ajer and cleared out Scepovic, CKR and Stokes and Cole. Along with Mulgrew and a few others on loan it has been a great window. Sure we could have offloaded more in an ideal world.

What it means is that there is a chance for the young scottish guys to get a chance i.e. Henderson, Christie, Ralston, etc We know Brendan can develop players well so everything is looking good.

Ralston not away on loan?

It's just the hype of last day drama.

Because we are linked with so many world class players it's unfortunate not to get one but we still managed to bag four.
