THE TRANSFER WINDOW HAS SLAMMED SHUT etc

Still to be confirmed whether Spurs have signed Rafael 'Look at his wife!!!' Van Der Vaart. Interesting one if it goes through, how do you fit him, Bale, Modric and Lennon into a side?

Sunderland have spent a ludicrous amount on Gyan, but then they routinely chuck about £6m at Man Utd reserves so relative to that this is a sensible price. He could be quite good fun too.

Good day for Stoke, Gudjohnsen will be handy, I think Pennant can do a great job for them in the same way Etherington does on the left and I rate Marc Wilson. Surprised they let Liam Lawrence go though, did he make a comment about Pulis' tiny dick?

And thank god Arsenal have finally signed a keeper. What? Oh ffs.

Looking forward to today's rumours about deals that didn't go through - Babel in a helicopter is obviously brilliant and BBC had a rumour about Robbie Keane nearly joining City which seems pretty bonkers.

Clubs have to register their 25 man squads today, biggest names to be out in the cold - RSC? Woodgate? Mickey Owen?
