The same window we signed the two from Man City we also signed Brannagan and Dickie. We also signed Todd Kane on loan two days after Smith-Brown signed. We were anything but a joke in that transfer window.No but it goes to show panic loans made us a joke
That's the loan game, for every Kane there's a Buckley-Ricketts, for every Beadle there's a Perkins. In the old days clubs were signing players from First Division / PL clubs and in those days for every Magilton you signed from Liverpool you got a Danny Hill from Spurs, for every Paul Moody from Southampton you got a Peter Fear from Wimbledon.
In the same 2016 window, Man City signed Gundogan, Zinchenko, Stones and Jesus. They also signed Claudio Bravo, Nolito and Marlos Moreno. Good window or bad window?
