So can Mata, playing on that side with Januzaj on the other. Much better. Valencia is muck, and Townsend is a one trick pony, though he did have a good few games for England, but Spurs couldn't be bothered with him being greedy and shooting all the time.I dint know what you mean about talented but he definitely has more ability when it comes to beating his man.
I'm not saying we should be in for him, I just don't think he's as bad as people are making out.
He's definitely better than the current Valencia, though.
That's a turn off.Moyes - No more business.
Delighted with that really.That's a turn off.
Damn, he is a good player.Hernanes has joined Inter. Quite the sideways move.
"Will he be a bigger success than Anders Svensson"
Glad to hear that after those Townsend rumours!Moyes: "You can stand your cameras down at the gate today, I don't think they will be required. We've done our business and we'll get on with it."
Every fredag is Taco fredag.Today is taco fredag. It's a sign.
They're just looking for a cheap, short-term replacement for Ramsey. I read on Sky that they're looking to bring Kalou back to England from Lille.Kim Kallstrom to Arsenal seems to be the weirdest move of the window.
Yeah if your playing 5 a side! His done nothing with his football career!Diego possibly going back to Atletico Madrid. Great player
Not really, cover for the injuries in midfield they have. He's a good passer with tons of experience so shrewd move there by Wenger.Kim Kallstrom to Arsenal seems to be the weirdest move of the window.
Yes I'd have to agree. Buying nobody is certainly preferable to buying the wrong players (Townsend, Otamendi, Lallana). As Liverpool showed with their disastrous transfer policy under Dalglish, filling your squad with average talents during a rebuild can set you back a few years. Having said all that, a left back and a central midfielder would really have given the squad a boost.Glad to hear that after those Townsend rumours!
Most of us were skeptical at the thought of bringing anyone in. Sure Mata doesn't fix every single problem but he can be the catalyst to make others play better from now until summer. With or without a new left-back and centre midfielder we've still had a good run in the January window.Yes I'd have to agree.

Moyes - No more business.
I agree. I don't think the upper echelons at OT realise just how crucial today is. Miss out on top 4 = harder to get targets in the summer.I the way I sound saying this, but I'll actually be disappointed if we don't get in a centre midfielder today. I think our chances of getting 4th depend on it.
Same goes for a left back, but it's not as crucial.
Manchester United are not ruling any more business today - and believe 'three, four or maybe five' new faces will arrive in the summer.
David Moyes joked that the press could stand their cameras down in his pre-Stoke City conference at Carrington this afternoon.
And a senior Reds' source has backed up the manager's claims - but added that staff would remain at the training complex throughout the day for the '0.01 per cent chance' that something may happen.
The source, with detailed knowledge of United's transfer dealings, said: "Everyone will be around for that 0.01 per cent chance today just in case but it's pretty impossible at the moment.
"Clubs are fighting in the Champions League, for Champions League place and they are relaxed about that."
And M.E.N. Sport understands targets have been identified for the summer window and work on bringing them to Old Trafford has already started.
"I would imagine that they would bring in three but you have to balance it," the source added.
"You don't want to bring in too many and destroy the core of the team – you have to be careful about it.
"It could be a case of three in, three out, or even four, maybe more. They have to be the right players and they have identified their targets."
Why am I doing transfer muppetry work for you?Poor window from us. Matic was a good signing, but where the hell is the striker??

Well, a good resigning.Poor window from us. Matic was a good signing, but where the hell is the striker??
Uh oh....
No incomings. Some on loan out probably.Is there anything at all regarding United and a player incoming that I can hang my hopes on for the day. It's eerily quiet.
