Now the transfer window is closed how do Saints fans feel about it?

Personally I am pleased that a stance has been made against anyone else leaving. What we have is a squad caple of holding their own in the PL and the club keeping financially viable.

We have cover in most positions but I am a bit concerned that too much is being asked of Pelle. What if he gets injured?

What of the midfield? If our injuries improve then we should be OK. Wanyama can decide his future is with SFC or he can be left to rot. Pleased ROKO has proven that he can be tough with want aways.

Now is the time to stop criticism and get behind our team. We have and will not do a Pompey. We will survive and do well.

I don't think it's survival what fans want though is it?

It's progression but I definitely agree with rest of your post.

I'm interested to see how Victor responds now he's been told to put up and shut up - we need to be more assertive with players pushing for moves, seems to be coming more common place, impressed with Everton's stance and WBA over player requests to move on. Victor needs to win the trust of the club, fans and team mates now.

Does anyone think there may be an agreement, a la spider, if he keeps his head down then we can review at the end of the season?

Apparently Spurs offer was below what we paid so we wouldn't have sold anyway. Ed's do you know what the offer was?

Why are people going on about relegation? Or survival? To suggest we are not progressing anymore based on 6 competitive games is as pathetic as Tottenham's Wanyama bid. Kop on.

I don't think a single signing has improved the starting XI one iota, while three quality players have left. The first team is weaker than last season's.

The filler that has been added to the squad looks to have given us reasonable depth in terms of bodies if not proven quality, but overall it's pretty fanciful to speculate that we can progress having strengthened our nearest rivals by selling them our best players, weakening our own team in the process.

Weirder things have happened, of course, but I think a 12th-14th finish is a more realistic outcome than top 6-7.
