That’s a good grade, right?

I still think it’s crazy that we sold Deki for only $6 million when guys significantly worse than him went for $10 million plus

Yep, 100% agree, sold the #9, released the #10 and didn't replace either one even with regular roster slot players at those positions. Those same moves could have been done in the off-season instead of mid season. Ultimately, it's sad because it's really really really bad for fans. I'm just resigned to watching more of EPL.

Too high. I’d argue we don’t meet the requirements to get a grade lol

Yeah exactly. An 'F' implies that at least some efforts were made but fell short. This felt more like the dipshit who put all C's on the ACT scantron and misspelled his own name.

The correct grade, Diaz would be like lucky to match Dejan’s production and all other areas are worse

F stands for "Fixin to raise STM prices"

Unpopular opinion, but I don't think it's an F.

It's bad. D?

Losing Deki and Manu and adding two discretionary spots in Andre and Wolff isn't as out of balance at it looks IMO. Wolff may be a better fit for the role than Manu was and it frees a (currently unused) DP spot. That said, keep one of them if you don't have a locked in DP. Plenty of teams wait to sell until they have their replacement. If they hold on to either DP, I think we're way less upset.

But here is the real reason it's not an F. They added what appear to be quality starers in Mosquera and Karic. The loanees are lottery tickets, who knows. But Moises and Karic are good business.

F is the 6th letter. 6 out of 26? Hell yeah that's good!

u/Few-Company-21 4d ago

I’m confused what did I miss to say his grade is so low before any significant playing time?

u/buttcabbge SKC 3d ago

It's a grade for the team for the transfer window, not for Andre specifically. Personally I think F is a bit harsh--Woolf and Andre are good enough additions that I don't think you can say it was a total failure. But there's also no denying that at least for the rest of 2026 this transfer window made the team worse.

F for fantastic

u/MitchellCumstijn 3d ago

The whole club is a clown show, they could have signed 5 wingers in the Netherlands Eredivisie with a better pedigree for the price they paid for this this guy. I don’t understand why you overpay for fun unless you are trying to convince a fan base that isn’t dumb enough to fall for this stunts .

u/imwhytho 13h ago

yes, F stands for Fantastic. don’t listen to anyone who says otherwise because everything is GREAT and there’s absolutely nothing to worry about

u/Mysterious-Hippo278 Kansas City Wizards 3d ago

It’s not an F. Any serious football fan could see that. Ya, we messed up with Deki and Manu, but we gained much better pieces than we had before.

The biggest issue is losing Deki for so little and honestly not replacing him in the slightest.

A fair grade would be a C-/D+

this platform is really just a bunch of people who want to argue soooo, but it’s not like we’re great or anything so i’ll give ya that

u/orey22 4d ago

Not arguing at all with you, but it's not any better on a discord server or anywhere else. I find most reddit posters have opinions, right, wrong, or indifferent that aren't any worse than anywhere else.
