I couldnt care less tbh, but Sesko being top of the list is laughable.
I just found it funny that in 2 months where a 116 million pound signing has produced exactly nothing, a striker who has had an okay start gets it.
As I keep saying, they all want to talk about United. Click click click.......
Firstly, in any window where Sancho makes a move (loan or perm) then that move is the worst of the window - unquestionably
I'd generally be more inclined to vote for transfers where clubs spent a decent chunk of money on players who either fundamentally aren't good enough or spent it on positions where there wasn't a strong enough need - neither of which is true in Sesko's case. They needed a striker and he's better than Hoijlund.
Garnacho, although the fee was at a deep discount to what he'd have gone for 12 months ago, seemed like a bad investment based on his attitute & the fact that Chelsea are stockpiling guys in his position. They really needed an experienced centre-back, so that was a really bad squad-building decision.
Wissa I like but it's a chunky outlay given his age, but understandable given how much pressure Newcastle were under to get someone/anyone. On paper the Woltemade fee looked a bit toppy and it felt like a risky transfer - but he's settled really well, which for am expensive striker is a great indicator that his time at the club will go well overall.
Should Arsenal have signed Eze and Madueke? No imho. If they had extra funds burning a hole in their pocket they should've gone for a striker a level above Gyokeres.
The Isak & Wirtz signings will understandably garner a lot of attention because they were big sums of money. But both are top drawer players with a great age profile. I wouldn't get overly worked up about their slow start - esp. Isak who is PL-proven and only now approaching the fitness level that other players would've been at on gameweek 1.
Wirtz has undoubted quality, but needs to learn to deal better with the pace & physicality or he'll end up like another Veron.
Sancho has played 8 minutes at Villa.
Wissa hasn't started at Newcastle.
Trafford got 4 games for city before they signed a new keeper.
Garnacho not done much at Chelsea yet
I think the article states that it's based on discussions with agents over the last month or so. With that in mind it feels like it's less about "...who has started well/badly" and more about "...which transfers looked smart going into the season and will look smart long-term"
So if Howson is moaning on about minutes played by each player so far then he's missed the point a bit.
...at least he makes sure that the Champions get some limelight - ta Ste. That'll get you some clicks.
