Glass smashed. Everton have signed Enner Valencia on loan. I think he's an atrocious player.

Can't see him being in a PL game that soon, but I reckon he could be eased in during the Palace cup game/EL games before he gets his PL bow.

I expected Hull to be busy today, but they've not done anything. They're in a bit of ****.

Yeah, shows up his character to be honest. Pretty weak. But also shows up how little thought was done into this ''attempt'', stunk of a last min panic and that's seemingly what it was.

Only a minor injury according to Adam Blackmore.

Looks like it's been reinforced to be honest.

The highlight of this window has to be Everton for me, the deadline day saga is the cherry on the top.

Phew.

£25m on Bolasie, about £10m on Williams, £6m on Gauye...and Stek for a nominal fee. So, they're actually up there with us at the top of the net spend table, given they sold Stones for 50 odd mill. Funny old game.

We know what we're doing

Hopefully the club let us know, they kinda like to keep bad injuries under wraps for some reason.

Yeah, powerhouse of a midfield. But still, we have to take this opportunity to laugh at the state of their glass ceeling.

Lol, Sissoko is going to Spurs. Ditched Everton.

Bloody pointless international breaks.

No, not at all. But for the giggles, go on Spurs....!! That would leave Everton up **** creek.

Good player to be honest. I assume he's going there for games though, not to be a squad player....so...Kone?

Lol @ Everton. Spurs have matched Everton's bid for Sissoko. Player prefers Spurs move.

Which TBF he did on Saturday.

A few of the most promising kids went out on loan last year, but that can't happen now - so I'd expect a few more games (and this is arguably something a lot of people were calling for Koeman to do anyway). Reed is arguably, alongside Romeu, the only tough tacklers we have.

Should have waited a bit later for that one..... but I have the feeling the club just wanted to get the major 'transfers out' done, before our new manager came in - so he had the budget to play with - maybe. But if we'd have kept him till today, it may be dicing with death a bit - we'd either get a stupid bid....or we'd be stuck with an unhappy player who will be worth a hell of a lot less next summer. The club probably had a better feel for the overall situation than any of us would have.

Nope, but these posts now are way too early. It's just loads of wild assumptions without knowing how said players will perform, who will get injured, etc etc etc. I think the club know what they're doing.

There's also a pretty wild assumption that not a single youth player will progress this year. I think we have some promising kids and the likes of Stephens, Reed will be getting some game time for sure. They can't go anywhere now (well, unless there's a late move). There aren't anymore loan windows in the football league, so they're bound to windows like the rest of us.

Sunderland, what? But we have this every flaming window. #iwishwewerestoke #iwishwewerepalace #iwishwewerexxx - but we finish above them, every time. Let's just give this team some time before coming down on this ridiculous points.
