What can we expect from the rest of the transfer window?

Rating the new boys So we now have less than one week to go before the transfer window 'slams' shut. Off on a tangent but, why does the window always have to slam?

Anyway... The transfer window is due to close next Tuesday at 6pm UK time so I thought I'd take a quick look at what I expect from the remainder of open season and give my view on the business we've done so far.

And it's a case of so far so good for me. When Mike Ashley appeared on television prior to the final game of the season and made his now infamous promise to invest many, including me, were left feeling rather suspicious. I mean we'd heard it all before right? And after years of zero investment in the playing squad and a steady stream of departures why else would we think any different?

Well to be fair, it has been and I have to say that if the window closed now I'd be pretty happy. Certainly more happy than I ever envisaged I'd be back in May. Whilst the job isn't done and we're still light in certain areas of the pitch we have gone for signings that are a level above what I was expecting.

Of course it's early days in the NUFC careers of all the new guys, but certainly on reputation, stature and early performances the signs seem to be good. I've been impressed with Chancel M'Bemba and think he'll be a fantastic acquisition while Georginio Wijnaldum will do well. Mitrovic up front has all the qualities to thrive in the Premier League and even Florian Thauvin is off the mark already, albeit against a League Two side.

In terms of what we've done in the window I'm happy so far. Can we expect any further changes in the final few days though? Well I personally don't think so as the tone from Steve McClaren seems to have changed. In fact he's effectively said we're not looking for anymore but not to rule it out.

So my question, or questions I should say, to you lot are...

1 - How do you think we've done regarding transfers?
2 - How do you think our new signings will do this season?
3 - Do you think we'll sign anyone else before the window closes?

And for a special bonus...

4 - Do you'll think we'll lose any first-team players in this transfer window?

Over to you.
