Transfer window thread?

Avergae £10m a season. Including the year Redknapp got Palacios/Keane/Defoe/Chimbonda etc at £40m+

Says it all really. Isnt Alli our only January business in about 4 or 5 years, and even then he arrived in the summer?
 
We are the second highest net spenders in January over the last ten years. Just ahead of Stoke, but waaayyyy behind City.

That's massively skewed by selling Berbatov and Keane for £50m in August 2008, then buying Keane, Defoe and Palacios for £45m in January 2009

We've only spent about £9.5m in total (on 5 players - Alli, Holtby, Fryers, Nelsen and Saha) over the last 6 Januaries

2008/2009 really tip those numbers dont they?

Im surprised we were 2nd to be honest, its obvious where it comes from. Goes to show how misleading these things can be...


It also only current Premier league clubs. I wonder how much the like of Villa and Sunderland spent in desperation?
 
Is this calculated on players bought in Jan and sold in Jan only? So if you buy in Jan, but sell in the summer it doesn't count towards your Jan net spend?

Cheers for posting this. I had completely forgotten that we signed Chimbonda twice. Hard to believe. January 2005 was busy!
