It's a pretty underwhelming end to the widnow.
Kamara was excellent business. Coutinho was on paper, unfortunately on the field it's yet to prove to be.
I suspect we'll never see the best of Carlos. As for Dendonker and Bednarek, they're the definition of underwhelming. I think both are ok and will improve our squad a bit, but they're hardly signings that will help us close te gap with the top 6/7 or even keep pace with Newcastle.
Last Jan we had a pretty short window to get a jump on Newcastle whilst they battled relegation and consolidated before making their move. The respective appointments of Howe and Gerrard put paid to that, and our timidity in the market this summer has prety much ended any hopes.
