The January Transfer Window

[jamie the seagull]

It's never easy getting deals done in January, ask Aston Villa...only got 6 over the line....

I was hoping to avoid this last scramble for players, especially having been top of the Championship for over half the window, but here we are.

It seemed like we would have the pulling power to tempt a player/s early in the window rather than them hold out for potentially bigger offers at the end of it.

The signs coming out of the club are very similar to the lead up to August deadline day where we got Pocognoli in on loan and that was it.

Still hoping for a no.10 that will compete with Baldock. 2 days to go.

Another loan of thee same quality as Pocognoli (only a forward this time rather than a full back) would be very acceptable, deadline day or not!

It is easy paying the wages and prices they do......

Newcastle bid £16m for James McArthur (Everton).
Bid rejected.

Our friends up in Croydon will be pissed off that McArthur is not actually their player

AVFC willing to let McCormack go out on loan.
They are even willing to pay half of his £45k a week wages.
Could not make it up.

Kaveh Solhekol from Sky is reporting that Murray current loan is close to becoming a £3 million permanent deal

Surely this can be done during the summer and more effort put into getting the player/s to get us over the line

I think Bournemouth are wanting shot of him and he will likely get a lot of interest in the summer. Probably best to do it now whilst we have the chance.

Reminds me of Colunga in more ways then one, will get battered by Championship defences.

Moose is a West Ham fan, so he wouldn't tweet it unless he was fairly sure although transfers do get hijacked.

Ohh interesting. Another striker for Villa then if true. No wonder they want to offload McCormack
