Rate Your Club's Transfer Window
I posted this in the Chelsea section so I may as well ask the same thing here. Here is what Chelsea did:
So our window looks like this:
In:
Matic 21-25m
Salah 12-15m
Zouma 12.5m (loan back)
Pasalic 2m (loan back)
Total spent: 47.5m-54.5m
Out:
Mata 37.1m
Essien FREE
De Bruyne 18-20m
Walker FREE
Total profit: 55.1m-57.1m
Loaned out:
Traore -> Vitesse
Bamford -> Derby
Omeruo -> Middlesbrough
Chalobah -> Middlesbrough
McEachran -> Wigan
Bertrand -> Villa
Delac -> god knows
Clifford -> JFH's club
Total money made during Jan: 2.6m-7.6m
What I thought about it:
Had we kept Mata and bought a CF as well, it'd be a perfect 10.
The fact we sold Mata -2 (1 because we sold, 1 because it was to a rival), didn't buy a CF -1, and didn't get Luke Shaw -.5
So I'd say:
6.5/10.
How about your club?

We didn't address the real problems within the team. Mata was a nice signing though
EDIT: Anderson is gone 7/10

Re: Rate Your Club's Transfer Window
Very poor.
We should have at least done a depth signing a la Arsenal with Källström. I can understand that some deals don't come off, like Salah and Konoplyanka, but it would've been the easiest thing in the world to sign someone for depth, our bench is miserable for a top-4 contender.

we made the biggest splash signing a world class talent, loaned out some dead weight, loaned out players who need playing time, but we didn't address any glaring issues, midfield and LB

Re: Rate Your Club's Transfer Window
Out:
Pereira (loan to Sao Paulo)
Ishak Belfodil (loan to Livorno)
Chivu (contract termination)
In:
Hernanes (12m+ Bonuses from Lazio)
Danilo D'Ambrosio (from Torino)
Andy Polo (19yo Peruvian youth striker going to Primavera)
Overall it looks great, 8/10 i'd say. Got a fantastic player to add quality, got rid of deadwood, upgraded the LB position and got some solid playing time for Belfodil, also we didn't sell any important players. If it all works as well as we hope it will then its wins all around.

Re: Rate Your Club's Transfer Window
Okay look I'm not as disappointed as my knee jerk posts suggest. With everyone fit we still have a very good 14/15 player rotation core in our team. Bench obviously is not as strong but we have a lot of fire power in the starting XI to be able to take care of games there without needing a spark from the bench in the next 15 matches in the league.
This window will only hurt IF we don't get CL at the end of the season. If we actually do get CL then I think not signing players and saving the money will be a blessing in disguise. We'll be a stronger pull to a much higher caliber of players with CL.
So depending on future outcomes this window could either be 0/10 or just N/A.

Thats actually a decent window.
Also, you kept Guarin despite the rumours he was going anywhere and everywhere.

Re: Rate Your Club's Transfer Window
Bringing in a quality creative player like Mata in this window automatically makes it a 9.5/10.
Wish we would have improved other areas, I'm a bit dissapointed in that aspect. But hey....Mata! nuff said.

Re: Rate Your Club's Transfer Window
I am furious.
I had such high expectations. So, so high. Because it was so obvious.
Honda and Rami? They were the signings we should have made in Summer.
Now was the chance to pull ourselves level, to right the sinking ship, to make up for lost ground...
However you put it, we needed another centre-back urgently.
Having only now recorded our first back-to-back wins, it seemed that tactically Milan was on the right path. The clichéd manager change to drastically alter the course of the season had worked. And it was long overdue.
Now to seize the moment and reinforce the team! That's what the optimist in me believed. But that was really an irrational thought, an unachievable aspiration for a team like Milan, or whatever Milan has become now. Magic is just an illusion, and no matter how good a magician Clarence Seedorf is, he cannot pull a rabbit out of a hat if there isn't a rabbit somewhere nearby.
Unfortunately for Milan, the man in charge of purchasing the rabbits, who had been slowly going blind over the years, has finally lost all vision. Galliani still has the power of speech though, and his oft repeated promises to reduce the squad size, invest in youth and purchase high quality players were now about to reach the pinnacle atop the list of all-time farcical and ironic statements.
First came the loan of promising striker M'Baye Niang to Montpellier, crucially with an option to buy. For a man who is so familiar with using loans with options to buy, Galliani seems rather ignorant to the potential implications of including such a clause in this instance. 2 goals in 3 games for Montpellier before the transfer market had even closed, and it is already clear that Niang is destined to become Gourcuff 2.0. Another promising starlet we let go for no apparent reason. Meanwhile, Zaccardo sits fixed to the San Siro bench and commands at least double the wages.
Galliani is like an auto-immune disease. He is part of Milan, but he has completely lost control of his role and is not only totally dysfunctional, but deleterious to the club. The Essien deal shows this clearly. Another aging player on a free transfer, for a position that we do not need cover for. Some foolish Milan fans actually buy the excuse that Essien was specifically bought to fill in for Montolivo in the Champions League. Ultimately, whether Essien plays against Atletico Madrid is irrelevant because what the Essien deal shows is that we have no ambition as a club, none whatsoever. Instead of continuing to use Cristante for the remainder of this foregone season, the development of his young talent will be stunted by the inclusion of a player whose birth certificate was written on a piece of slate using a hammer & chisel and has since been lost in the sands of time.
The comprehensive failure to maintain any dignity was completed with the signing of Taarabt - a player who not only has no affection for Milan, but had publicly insulted the club in the past and epitomises the plethora of classless, selfish, mercenary scum footballers playing today. What if Taarabt surprises me and turns out to be impressive? Will I admit I was wrong about him? No. Never. Because there was a time when Milan was only fit for the best and the best was only fit for Milan. This transfer will always be a reminder that Milan have fallen from Champions of Europe and the World in 2007 to the depths of second tier English football in the short space of 6 years.
How shameful.

I would have given a higher vote if we took a forward ( I contented of a loan) , we needed of him,he was also a priority.
Anyway compared to last 2 transfer windows it seems almost a dream

Re: Rate Your Club's Transfer Window
The same amount we spent this window...
Reasons?
Firstly, a lack of ambition. We're supposed to want top 4... yet we have 15 senior players available (3 of those being "youngsters")
Secondly, failure to identify clear problems in the squad. Absolutely no cover for Lucas, and haven't for 2 and half seasons now. We still lack an attacking minded midfielder.
Thirdly, we couldn't even get a loan deal done to address these injury problems. Our whole starting XI defence, well most of them, are currently out injured for a long period of time. Luckily, we have Skrtel bossing it. Again, our only defensive minded midfielder is out injured so we lack balance in midfield now.
Lastly, we didn't address the problems when we f*cked up in the summer.
