Not much of note, no squad number for Klarer though which is a shame, I suppose Danso pushes him out of the pecking order.
In what way? Surely if we have an exclusive option to buy then we get first refusal on buying for the pre-agreed price before anyone else gets a look in?
I'd say a firm 7/10. Raising to 8/10 if we shift two of Hoedt, Stephens, Carrillo, or for decent money, Lemina. Could raise to a 9/10 if Danso fixes our defence and lets us play a 4222 or if Adams has a decent start.
Maybe I'm clutching at straws but the lack of an "all done" tweet is promising. Also there are a lot of transfers still to go through not announced yet like Iwobi, David Luiz, Lo Celso ect. so we aren't alone in this boat.
Using % to represent my confidence. Saying I think there is a 10% chance and saying I think it is unlikely is pretty much synonymous except in the latter I am being more precise about my prediction

To be fair, you are both right. I don't play golf (not well anyway) and am on the Friday beers. I'll bow to your greater knowledge.
