We've signed 3 youngsters this season.

Pablo Moreno- Striker from Juve, age 18.  Cost 9m. Loaned out to Girona

Yan Couto - RB from Courtiba (Brazil). Age 18. Cost 5.4m. Loaned out to Girona

Issa Kaboure - RB from kV mechelen(Belgium), age 19. Cost 4.04m. Loaned back to KV mechelen.

We have sold Sane, no market for the rest of the duffers. Have some well paid bench warmers this season.

Joules Kounde, £50 million rumour doing the rounds.

Hesperus

Jules Kounde. 21, 5’11, French Center back. Supposed to be very good, but I’d worry about his age and height.

Was that to us, or another club in the city football group?

Not recorded on the official prem league transfer site or on transfermarkt

In that article there's a list at the bottom.

Mikki van Sas (16), full-backs Yan Couto (18) and Kluiverth Aguilar (18), midfielders Romeo Lavia (16) and Josh Adam (16), plus forwards Liam Smith (17) and Pablo Moreno (18).

Interesting that they've missed Issa Kaboure

I don't think the one I forgot is any of them

Koulibali played for Napoli today

Hesperus

Peps says our transfer business is done. Diaz looks like a good signing, Ake strengthens us because Laporte gets a lot of injuries and I think he’ll miss a lot of games again this season.

Not addressing LB again is criminal and a major weakness in our transfer strategy. I know Ake can play there but he is not a specialist LB.

I think we’ll struggle again at times this season. Weakness at LB, lack of energy at DM and lack of cover upfront for Aguero, who I expect to spend a large amount of time out injured unfortunately. I think we could be in for a similar season to last season. Good but not good enough.

I see we sold (not loaned) Tosin on deadline day (to Fulham, for £1.5mil). Good luck to him, I used to think he was part of the future.

Swiss

Up to £2m with add ons and a 20% sell on fee.

Yep, good luck to the lad.

CTID

With a net spend of under £50m in this transfer window it leaves me wondering why our LB problem has not been addressed. Is the savings bank being topped up in preparation for Messi (I hope not). Also, a bit surprised that an Aguero back up/successor has not been acquired, not just relying on Jesus.

We don't know what we're working with in terms of budget.

It might be that FFP is having a large restriction, especially given the current economic crisis.

It might also be, rather than panic buy, our targets weren't available at this time.
