Ed and Bravo are both injured so it's big Car in goal on Saturday

You've heard of the new Messi? He's the new Richard Wright

Let's not forget Stuart Taylor before him.

That is a quite frankly shocking return for a £40M striker

Never rated him at all. Poor move by Everton

And that Kean was £10 million cheaper! What's wrong with English clubs?!

Like a child given money for their birthday, they go out to the shops on Saturday and spend it on the first things they see. After trying to part with close to £100M including wages for Zaha, which would’ve probably been the worst signing ever, they must have just rolled the dice and came up with Iwobi. Aubameyang was only a further £25M and he scores goals for fun

Gotta say....Arsenal have done some tremendous business this window

They did but what was all that about them having no money to spend?

I’d imagine 90% of those deals will be a pay over 3 year period type of deal .

Gun dog signs new contract

Brandon Barker, remember him, is having a medical at Rangers ahead of a proposed move there. Be a few more quid in the pot

Free transfer, no?

That's why it's so impressive. They had 45M or so to spend and splashed out almost 140M

Could be. Can’t see a mention of a fee. I assumed he wasn’t out of contract as his name hadn’t come up on the released players list

He went missing in pretty much every game I watched him in - free tansfer is probably more than he's worth.

Lo Celso and Sessegnon to Spurs

Amazed United have got £74 million for him. How do you go to a team and stink the place out and still get near to what you paid for the player?!

Rag prpoganda. When it first broke the fee was 60 mil, which soon went to 65 and then 70, finally landing on 74. Rags don't want to look like chumps and I'm sure Inter will be paying it off at 50p a day.

Mangala on a free to Valencia

Why did we signed him up to another year just to give him away on a free absolutely mental!

Think we thought he’d go to Porto and they’d pay a few million for him. Then Porto realised he wasn’t very good and backed out. Valencia probably owe us a favour and we’ve called it in
