    Papy Djilobodji loaned from Chelsea to Werder Bremen. Dunno why Jose brought him in if he was never going to play him.

    He didn't. One of our scouts liked him so he was bought. Same with the CB we bought from reading and loaned back to them who has now been benched in the championship. No one seems to be sure who actually makes the transfer recommendations and decisions on who to buy. A few like Costa and cesc were pushed for by mourinho and approved but some are just out of left field and no one knows who actually makes that decision

    Swansea was linked to 19 different strikers this window and none seem all that likely. Fucking crazy.

    Ramires to China for $34 million is one of
    the more hilarious transfer fees ever.

    Also looks like Swansea are going to be grabbing Alberto Paloschi from Chievo....I know nothing about him but hope he can stay onside.

    Miazga to Chelsea. Not a smart move for him IMO.

    Will probably end up in their horrible loan system and you've got to be Belgian to ever be heard from again once you're in it.

    Agree Chelsea isn't the right fit.supposedly there is a no loan clause so I guess he will be fighting for time on the pitch.

    Apparently Newcastle still going to try and sign another player or two.

    Sequiera from Atletico is rumored to be coming in on loan, and going back in for Berahino :idk:

    Don't think Berahino goes anywhere until summer. That is what Peace has said and he is almost as big of a cunt as Levy with transfers.

    Granted I haven't seen him play in a few years and he fell out of favor with Simeone but that seems like a really good signing for them.

    Newcastle have bid 21 straight cash for Berahino. IMO they'd be crazy to reject

    Now it is getting saucy

    I don't think Newcastle make the drop after all of the investment made this window but at best it is a lateral move for Berahino (performance wise). Newcastle are a historically bigger club but at the moment aren't in the best spot. He has burned all his bridges at WBA now though so is probably open to moving anywhere.

    That is a high risk/reward situation. He has the talent to be a 20 goal scorer, but his attitude is kind of shit. I guess you are happy to see Ashley open the checkbook in a bid to strengthen the squad for the home stretch though.

    It will be off and on at least 3 more times before the window shuts, inevitably ending with us not signing him.
