The players who were intended to step right in and play most of the minutes have been excellent.

I need a bit more time to judge the rest. We’re not going to know for another year or two whether Barry, Dibling, Aznou, and Röhl were worth it.

It typically takes a young player at least a year before they start establishing themselves in a PL team, doesn't it?

If we assume that 3 of those 4 are playing regularly next season and the lot that we buy this summer need a season to develop, and the same for the following summer then it will be at least 3 seasons before the majority of our signings are playing and contributing regularly.

Which requires patience that most fans (and probably David Moyes) don't have

Problem is, they’re not even getting minutes in the U23’s, or do they?
