So Ugarte will be the final (first team) signing this summer.
No need to separate Zirkzee like that.Good window 4 really good quality signings (De Ligt, Ugarte, Yoro and Mazraoui) and one decent potentially good signing (Zirkzee)

A very good window for me. Age profile of the signings has been good and in positions we need.
Still work to be done in future windows but there was always going to be. INEOS said that more than once themselves.
Decent window for outs as well albeit with one or two left who ideally might have been shifted. Nonetheless the likes of Eriksen and Lindelof may have some role to play in the Europa group games if we rotate, before we release them in the summer now presumably.
Desperate to see us get Sancho off the books today. Twitchy that might not happen though. We’ll see.
Wouldn’t massively shock me if we still did something with Sterling today but I’m hoping we hold our nerve now. Take stock and go again in Jan if the right opportunity is there.
Then this season 6th place would Be progress?We clearly do need more but I think the aim is to keep that surplus you are referring to. The wages and amortisation fees were out of control and this is the first step to resolve that.
Maybe we take someone on loan if we can offload Sancho but this season we are going to have to make do and then build from there.

Rashford’s form certainly isn’t helped by Shaw not playing. Certainly need a genuine left back to overlap and play passes using his left footLacking a difference maker in the final third, but those don't grow on trees. The team is built for Rashford to get chances, but he doesn't seem like he has it in him to get back to his level of a couple of years ago.
Still say we should get Rabiot, even when Mount returns you worry about his fitness
