Underwhelmed

Too early to judge the efficacy of the window as yet as some of the new arrivals have been getting up to the fitness levels required to play in this team. The new players have also to gel with the the previous signings which will take a little time, I would suggest that the squad now is better equiped both in attack and at the back to make a good fist of it in the championship, let's see how we are placed after ten games.....keep the faith.

You are quite right McBlue.
I was not judging the value of players signed, but, with Tom Wagners reported pledge of a 50 million transfer purse I was expecting some, shall we say, higher profile signings.
The other thing that niggles away at me is how other clubs can integrate new players into their teams straight away where we tend to "bed them in" first and it sometimes could be a month before we get to see them (That is apart from injury recovery).
I will bow to the fact that Chris Davies is a proven football manager now and as such knows plenty more about things football related than I will ever know, so I will trust his judgement, but still reserve the right to criticise (Hopefully objectively).

I've just read this report from Ryan Deeney. Summarising the window. I too felt a little underwhelmed, however after reading this I feel more positive about the season ahead. It's a long one but I recommend reading it.

BluZ, Thanks for that, it is a good read and exudes positivity. At least I feel a little more positive after reading it.
I would recommend that all Blues supporters should have a read of it and objectively digest the content.

I honestly don't think we are finished regarding signings,there are loads of free agents.
I've been much more impressed with Gray than I thought I would be. Can't fault his work rate and attitude one bit. The way he pushed on when he was clearly in a lot of pain with his shoulder really impressed me. I'm hoping after this break that the team have far more success in playing Kyogo through on goal. My number one frustration is Willumson. I see no reason why he gets a start.
