Honestly don’t know how to feel, such a bizarre transfer window in particular last day.

Turning in for the night before my confusion turns to anger

If Deli Alli could get his head in the game again he’d be the best player in the league - think he’s only 28

Since early 2023 he's played in one game. A 10 minute cameo where he managed to get sent off.

I think it's fair to say that his career is behind him.

Ok

You're right we're just going to have the same eleven players start all 46 games because that's how football works, my bad.

Maybe Doug has bought the FM editor and he’s just going to change the fitness and condition to 100% before every game?

We won't, hence why we have players on the bench.

You might hate the likes of Eccles, Simms, KKH, Allen, Lati and Bidwell but they have and will do a job when required. They aren't random academy players, they are experienced Championship footballers.

My reading of this transfer window is that prices for players at Championship level have been inflated and trying to secure suitable quality players at a level we considered value has been almost impossible.
It’ll be interesting to see if this continues in January

Who said that? I'm just saying Sheaf wouldn't have played as many times as you said. If you want to change what we are talking about because you were wrong then so be it.

I’m convinced we must have a free agent heading our way. Lampard likes wing play, yet we have no cover or players that can come in and change up the dynamic of the game. It just doesn’t make sense to intentionally go into a season with one of the leanest in the championship.

When I saw Raphael was going, I was convinced we must be getting in a winger. I would love a straight answer to why that wasn't the case. Despite what some have said, he would have got minutes, whether filling on for injuries or as an option from the bench.
As Palace have done, you can agree to a transfer on condition a replacement comes in, then pull the plug if not.

I think we’ll likely go back for a few in January. Got Eccles to come back and can hopefully develop Andrews.
Yeah, it’s been decent…not perfect but pretty good.

Well clearly we can't prove who is right or wrong so it's a pretty futile argument.

I just think it's absolutely mad to suggest that Sheaf would be resigned to the bench for the season.

Let me put it another way, do you think Allen and Eccles are better than Sheaf?

I’m notoriously on the fence with things, I never really fluster when things don’t go right. But to come out of this window with no added midfielders, and then going on to sell our captain on deadline days feels criminal to me. Allen/Eccles are not promotion chasing midfielders, it’s as simple as that.

We are 1 serious injury to Rudi, Grimes or Torp away for it to have a significant impact on our results. The drop off from the starting midfield to the backup is night and day. This should have been addressed long before Sheaf was sold.

Stadium aside (which is incredible) someone has seriously not done their job this window, and I genuinely feel we could pay a huge consequence.

That’s my bed wetting done for the year. I’m really angry. But we’ve had it much much worse, so I’ll always try to look for the positives.

It is a bit random we let players go we don't have much cover for.

Yeah Rapha wasn't a starter but if Saka gets a bad injury we are fucked.

We were linked with Lawrence all summer, worked with Lampard at Derby so potential there as an option out wide
Lampard played with Oxlade-Chamberlain for England and signed Ali for Everton so a few links there.
Some great free agents knocking around if needed.
