i'd like to know your workings out which means we have more chance of signing berbatov than signing anyone

In an ideal world, Holtby, a centre mid and a striker.

In the real world more than likely [Poor language removed] all.

I don't even know who this fella is. But he has a long and difficult to pronounce name, so he must be good.

Lets just say I don't want him to play against us if he goes to Spurs.

Jelavic out and 2 players in who are rated higher -- seems like he told the truth to me?!

Jelavic, Oviedo and Lukaku out though surely? The squad is significantly weaker than it was before injuries and sales, Martinez knows this and he knows tomorrow is the only day of the season he can do anything about it. Its just nonsensical to let it pass without taking action.

I reckon we'll see the smile back on Bobby's face with a boss new signing before tomorrows out.

....Moisander from Ajax for £3m being reported but only if JH leaves.

Epic work on the wiki page mate.

Cheers for the pm Chico, sounds exciting if we do get him signed tomorrow.

You're so mischievous Moomin.

Be amazed if we sign anyone to be honest. On another note - i'd play Hibbert against Villa. There i said it.

Don't want us to even talk to Moisander. Sorry FinnFan x

Everyones banking on a statement he said before we lost Oviedo and Lukaku. He made the statement before Coleman, Lukaku, and Oviedo got hurt. Arguably like Zatara said jela out with mcgeady and traore in we would be stronger without those injures. Now that those injuries have happened things need to be re-evaluated. I don't think RM was planning to bring in 3+ players. Even at the start of the window he said he was looking to bring in 1-2 and he did. I agree I think we will sign someone tomorrow.
