2023 Summer transfer window - hopes, needs, expectations and rumours.

Surprised Revan has played for the first team and then gone on loan the next day.

No problem with it, just a bit odd.

Spurs have done some good business with Maddison and Johnson. I'd have loved to have seen Maddison at Villa, think we've missed a trick there.

I jokingly suggested on the opening weekend that we went for the wrong Leicester player, but maybe we did.

We've signed Diaby and Zaniolo in the position where Maddison plays.

I wasn't talking positions, just that Madison and Barnes both had better opening weekends than Tielemans did. But everyone was shit that week, and Barnes hasn't done much since, so Madison is really the only one that's been consistent over the three weeks, which yes, is too short a time to judge the success of a transfer.

I thought Diaby had a good debut, all things considered.

When does the January window thread open? :-)

If everything is on track Moreno is available again after Liverpool and I reckon Lenglet or Torres could cover in a emergency on Sunday so probably not much chance for him to add to that appearance.

Where has Revan gone?

Where has Revan gone?

Rotherham.

Potentially important thing is that Revan signed a new contract before heading off.

Rotherham.

Suggests that Moreno might not be far off.

Revan was never going to get a look in this season . Good player, we'll see more of him later

[Villafirst]

The squad should look better once Moreno and Ramsey return. JJ in particular is missed, but not having any pre-season is a worry. Sounds quite a bad injury to his toe.

Revan looked tidy last night but you could he wasn't ready. On the other hand, the even younger Kellyman looked more than ready to get games.

From the footage I have seen, Lenglet is playing left-back in some of it, so I think he's probably been brought in with that in mind.  He'll cover Digne until Moreno is back.

Reports that Everton came in late last night for Dendoncker. Too late for us to find a replacement.
