Really? Won't be easy.

i think we can all agree though that we spent a silly sum of money in the summer. A sum that should have guaranteed a certain level of quality that we just have not seen. I'd have sooner spent it all on one quality defender and one quality midfielder.
I do keep thinking that we should have spent the money on PL experienced players. We could have probably signed Gueye/Rondon/Sigurdsson for the amount we spent on Musa/Slimani/Mendy.
I think in January we should send a few out on loan to Championship teams. I am thinking in particular of Musa and Kaputska.
It might improve them and really get them ready to be regulars. For me Musa is too green to play in the Prem and if Kaputska is not ready to play at all he deserves the chance to step up at a lower level and bring himself up to speed.
For us (as in on the field as a player) or feature in the transfer window? I think he will either go temporarily on loan or permanently for considerably less than we paid for him.I think Kaputska will feature in Jan
Jury is out on Slim. I do think played correctly he could score a lot of goals.Hopeful a fit Mendy will turn out to be decent. It does look like we've been shafted for the other 2.

But then I always go back to the fact that last season we signed Fuchs/Kante/Okazaki, none of whom had PL experience. And that didn't turn out too badly.

I can't hear his name without my brain saying Mender Mendy Rodriguez...and that wasn't even the name of the robot in Futurama!Hopeful a fit Mendy will turn out to be decent. It does look like we've been shafted for the other 2.
Haven't you said that before?
The time to judge all three is about a third of the way into next season.Yes but what we paid for them was a fraction of what we paid for Musa, Mindy, and Slim. We broke our transfer record 3 times. For the sums spent we should see quality.
Yes...in the Championship.The time to judge all three is about a third of the way into next season.
