The last paragraph is the key thing. I'm disappointed that we have sold someone so fast into the Window but haven't moved straightaway to strengthen the obviously weak areas in midfield. Is this another season when we waste 4 or 5 matches trying to get a good deal on the 31st?

It's about getting the right player in as well. If that takes 4 or 5 games, then so be it. There's no point in trying to bring in just anybody and Bruce has said as much.

It is not like we have only just started looking though is it (hopefully), Bruce should have been considering the weaknesses and plugging them within the first few matches. And the opening of the window is not when you can actually start talks either. But mainly I'm just hoping for faster action on resolving the current squad problems then we have had for the last several windows.
