I did too, but it quickly became obvious that he only wanted Madrid. Such is life.
A midfielder would have been the icing on the cake, but hard to not be really happy with that window. Sancho + Varane + Ronaldo is outstanding business. The only really frustrating thing for me is Lingard apparently being happy to sit out his contract as a benchwarmer. He's well within his right to do so, but after his stellar loan at West Ham and with a WC coming in 22, I'm a bit surprised that's what he wants. Also, if you look at what Leeds paid for James, it's not farfetched to think that the funds of James and Lingard could have funded a midfielder. But again, such is life. Still a very strong team in a lot of areas, just have to somehow figure out the balance in midfield I guess.
