Window is WIDE open according to SKY this morning.

Wonder why it can't just be open and closed.
All a bit WWF.

and it never just closes

IT SLAMS SHUT!

Don't rule out someone like Mirallas or Jagielka leaving and another couple. I'll be surprised if the number in exceeds the number out.

Mirallas won't be going anywhere. He's been used a lot by Koeman and if another winger is to go, it'll be Lennon.

Cleverley will be moved on if possible. Jagielka would only go in the circumstance we get a CB in.

Again, none of them would be huge misses. Like Ij, I don't care who goes this window from the squad players. They aren't good enough.

It can't realistically as there are already 25 registered players in the squad, so players have to leave to make room for new players. Although players under 21 like Lookman wouldn't be included as they don't need to be registered.

Considering the amount of deadwood at the club, the number out exceeding the number in isn't necessarily a bad thing. (E.g. McGeady, Niasse, Koné, McAleny, Gibson, Cleverley, at least one of Garbutt and Oviedo, Rodriguez etc.)

Same old same old mate: wages off the books first then sign players.

Baines and Jagielka at Sunderland would be a late Christmas present.

Unreal really that we could get rid of 8 players and not even notice.
