It did feel as if it was a shockingly quiet transfer window, though I was half thinking it was just United being shit at making transfers. So why is it that at a time when the premier league has more money than ever, are teams struggling so hard to complete any transfers? I understand it being difficult for premier league teams to buy from other premier league teams, with every team being able to demand "feck off" fees for players if a team truly wants them because they never need to sell, but you would think it should make it much easier to sign players from the rest of Europe.
Looking around the premier league, look at the number of signings per club. Sheffield United and Villa made by far the most signings (5 & 10), Watford and West Ham on 4 signings each but the rest being 3 signings or fewer, for a total of 59 so far. Not sure where everything goes from here, but it's interesting none the less that with all the money the premier league was getting led to the mid table teams getting a lot stronger initially to now basically nobody being able to complete signings.
