First pre season friendly on Wednesday coming so I'm not going to panic just yet. Bit embarassing with so many with their knickers in a twist this early on at the paper talk. Everton have been busiest so far but everyone else has made just the one or two signings bar a few that have three. Palace haven't signed one at all yet, and with De Boer in charge I'm sticking some money on them to go down.
Recently all of our big signings have come in August and completely under the radar with next to no paper talk and can't see there being any change there to be honest - as I mentioned before there's very little incentive to move early in the window unless you're the likes of Lukaku (£75m so his agent would have been keen to get that over the line quickly!) and Rooney (reportedly £150k wages a week at Everton, madness for a player on the decline those wages!)
