He thought rabiot was going to be really good. We all already know his opinion is wrong.
Anyway the market was good but not great.
Good: Koop, cabal, selling kean, getting motta
Bad: mckennie failing to sell, woj fail to sell, rugani failed to sell, de sciglio failed to sell, arthur failed to sell, kostic of failed to sell, offered a rabiot contract renewal that was thankfully rejected, soule low fee, hujisen low fee, weah failed to sell. Failed to sign first and then second choice cbs. Prioritizing signing goalie when others positions where much more important
Went into season with important signings left till end of market is not a good thing.
Overall this was a very chaotic market and there was a lot left to be desired. You can’t just judge someone on what he buys. The sells are also important.
