Other clubs mess things up. The longer they hold onto a player they want to keep, the more rash the bid is going to be when nearing the closing of the transfer window.
Other clubs also sign players earlier than the 29th.
Which decent players have actually been prised away from there club this window. I'm not talking about Lucas Neill and Lauren who were forced out or were going out of contract, I'm talking about people like Curtis Davies or David Nugent, who are in demand.
I can think of nobody to be honest.
