Pretty awful. Failed to strengthen any of our three weakest areas, missed out on our number one target because we wasted the whole window trying to call Dortmund's bluff (which of course turned out not to be a bluff) and finally embarrassed ourselves with a last minute desperate scramble on deadline day (the last refuge of the badly run, disorganised club).
Our rivals have strengthened and all the talk in July/August of pushing on and closing the gap on the top two, has given way to the more meagre aspiration of a 4th place finish.
