Episode 216 - Winners And Losers Of The Summer Transfer Window
Plus the clubs that found the best value transfers
Patrick and Ted wrap up the entire summer transfer window, going club by club through who actually improved their squad, who overpaid, and who's already in trouble two games into the season.
Chelsea spent over 400 million and still turned a profit, while Spurs spent a fortune on players Ted and Patrick mostly like and still can't win a game. Man City loaded up on midfielders, Liverpool came away with real gaps after missing on several targets including a late run at Cody Gakpo, and Arsenal ended the window looking like the team nobody actually caught. They also work through the promoted clubs, the windows that missed completely, and the few teams who found real value shopping outside the usual markets.
