Are we talking loans in or out?I doubt we will be bringing in any players just yet. If at all.
Very quiet and 3 weeks to go, so we will see what happens.
Depends on our injury list too obviously and players returning.
Maybe a few loans.

This window there are three areas of concern....
2) When Defoe goes...it would be the idea chance to bring in a young (not too young) striker to be slowly integrated into the team so he's ready for next season and can be used as an impact sub (Europa starter maybe) this year.
Couldn't that be your answer to the first part??? Stick Lamela up top or bring him off the bench for Ade or Soldado???
I'm not surprised we are not looking to add any more new players to the squad. 7 in, and 2 returning from loans last summer is a big job to turn those players in to a team. Remember, it's nice to buy players which look good on paper, but u don't win games on paper. Tim has a good squad, he just has to turn them in to a good team. In saying all that, I think if we do add to what we've got a left back should be high on the list... Recall BAE?
Good, cos i've just realised i'm on holiday on deadline day.It's going to be quiet

This has always been very obvious to me .
- Temporary manager (in all but words)
- 7 players still settling in from last summer
- No funds unless we sell
- Nothing really left to play for this season (5th or 7th is just the same)
Basically everything is on hold now till the summer. Using the Defoe money on a Baldini teenager or two is the most I'm expecting.

What was I thinking?!
Come on, 5th-7th?
I'm certainly more pressismistic now than I was at the start of the season (and even then I knew getting 4th would be hard as always) but we're still in with a good shout.
Think it's going to be the same for a lot of teams
We had the quality to get 3rd this season, but now we don't have the leadership or nous.
Fighting Everton for 5th or 6th is realistically our remaining battle.
I don't really see us needing any players. We spent 100m in the summer FFS!!
So you are happy with our bunch of defenders?
