Re: Transfer window out of 10

It's a solid 8 for me. Great business, would have been higher if we'd have shifted some out. It's strange how all the ALK critics go quiet when it's transfer season I've not. It's ok to be both happy with some aspects and unhappy with other aspects regarding the ownership. It's not a binary view.

Re: Transfer window out of 10

8/10

To get to 10/10 i would have needed to see a CJER replacement and a more prolific striker, in addition or just instead of Broja but am really, really happy with Hartman, Walker, Big Les, Dubravka, Big Choom and Luis signings.
