Do the board deserve credit for this transfer window??

I absolutely believe they do.

Take away last windows, the manager has asked for players and he has been handed them.

 

If the signings perform well and contribute to success then of course.

But there is certainly room for improvement in our overall recruitment process, even though it’s difficult to pinpoint the failure points as a fan.

 

Credit seems a big step. It's been a good few days bute yet another window where we've brought in a lot more money than we spent.
And organisation has been a * show.

Let's see if they're serious about improving the recruitment and scouting department and we bring in some more staff.

 

credit for selling one of our best players .see if they had kept oriley and added engels the arguement could maybe be made

 

Naw

 

They haven't done more than what we should be expecting, it's new to us that they have so it's certainly progress.

 

Hopefully there will still be enough money left in the pot for a handsome bonus around Christmas time (and maybe in April as well)

 

It remains to be seen. I think some transfer could have been done earlier. That is my only criticism. Maybe a winger would have been too. But think we invested and thats what fans asked. Can never please everyone though.

 

I think they did ok, but wouldn't be singing their praises. Didn't get enough done early in the window so we didn't leave enough time to bring in all the players we should have. If we had another week of the window I think we'd have seen another couple of additions.

 

For the actual net spend and the time it took no not really.

 

They definitely deserve some credit for getting Rodgers some of his players. Engels for sure.

But they still dragged the * out of the window and I think overpaid on Idah. And for all they spent, they still turned a profit. Could have pushed the boat out more.

 

Credit for max valuing the sale of one of our best players?

 

For doing what they should be doing most summers...no.
Long over due action.

 

The profit from players sales won't have come in directly at once, it'll be partial installments.

Some may think we overpaid for Idah, but if Norwich wanted £12m reportedly for him, and we got the man that Rodgers said he wanted for less than that, I'd say it was fine. Especially when it seemed that Norwich were repeatedly moving the goalposts...

 

So they did what they've been demanded to do THIS window, but still it's a "no" from you?

Ok.

 

Not for me. We haven’t brought in everything we need & we had ample time to do so. They managed to salvage some credibility but I wouldn’t be going as far as giving them credit.

 

Preach!

 

People wanted the manager to be backed, and he was so yes, I think they do. They'll never be able to get it absolutely 100 percent right, that's very difficult but at the same time, some people are never happy. Overall I think we've done pretty well. I wouldn't have minded another striker but not sure who of quality is going to come in and be happy playing 3rd fiddle.
