Short round-up so far:

- Luiz might well be heading to Chelsea, no fee agreed yet
- Spurs want Sissoko but won't meet Newcastle's valuation (good, don't want the ****)
- Joe Hart to Torino on loan for the season done
- Wilshere choosing between Palace and Bournemouth for a loan move, Roma trying to get in on it
- Slimani to Leicester close
- Martins Indi to Stoke
- Mangala off to Valencia
- Adebayor to Fulham in the works :lol:

Would be a good signing for you lot. It went well last time you signed a player from Real Madrid on Deadline Day(Van Der Vaart.)

They also owe you one after they poached Modric and Bale from you.


Not going to happen. I would love to be wrong, Isco is pure class, but this **** happens to Spurs every window. It's a cycle at this point. We get linked to a top player right before the window ends, fans get excited, we inevitably don't sign anybody on deadline day, fans get disappointed and angry at Levy (whether the rumour was real or bogus), we're going to get relegated, repeat annually.

Rivaldo, Kaka, Aguero, Ryan Babel in a helicopter.

We will sign the Espanyol goalie and love it.

You've really had a terrible window. Wanyama are Janssen are meh. Janssen is a typical Eredivisie merchant who'll flop like most strikers from Eredivisie do when they come to PL.

Really bad window. But the media will give Levy a free pass as usual. Arsenal is getting slagged off even though they've bought a World Cup winner and one of the better midfielders in the Bundesliga last year.
Dirk Nowitzki, Steve Nash, Kevin Garnett, Toni Kroos, Pep Guardiola, Ernst Happel, Joachim Löw.

We're pretty much the same team as last season, minus a bit of deadweight and with a few new arrivals. It's underwhelming but not a terrible window. Team will look fine when Dembele returns from his injury layoff. Wanyama doesn't look great at the moment because he's not playing his usual holding role and is being asked to create.

As for Janssen, there's plenty of former Eredivisie strikers who have succeeded in the PL as well: Van Nistelrooy, Bergkamp, Van Persie, Suarez, etc. Not to say he will be anywhere near as good as those, but you can't slag him off after a few games just based on the fact he came from that league.

I like this one quite a bit.
Seems like Christensen to Gladbach on a permanent deal(with a buyback option for Chelsea) could happen because of that.

Liverpool are supposedly able to rid themselves of Mario Balotelli.
Seems like a free transfer to Nice.

Though, I don't know how a Balotelli + Lucien Favre working relationship should work, with Favre being a no nonsense guy.
