It's not the window that pushes me over the edge, it's this fucking thread!

taking the medication I'm filling in for him!

I'm not changing my vote yet.

I liked him for the most part, but he became a reet pain in the arse. Relieved to know he's someone else's issue now.

We badly needed midfielders FFS.

I never thought pages of static text could actually give me heart palpitations, but you lot are doing a decent job!

Hodgson's a class act.

Because he's making bids for players we need? I don't get it With 34 minutes to go, are you for real? Of course I am, who the hell knows when these bids were made or what stage negotiations are at/have got to?

Keane off to Tottenham, fingers crossed for D Bent arriving on Tyneside!

Aye, better we spunk huge amounts of money on inferior players like before. If anything I'm encouraged by this window... we are addressing the right positions and getting solid players that will help keep us up. I want more/better, but so does every football fan. I bet man City fans are asking why they signed Bridge/Bellamy/Given instead of something like Bosingwa/Drogba/Buffon!

Good of him to identify their shortcomings. Fair play to both of them. I hope they have sex. If it helps with their understanding I'm all for it as well.

Every club does that though, don't they? Only the insane spenders just go out and pay whatever to get their men.

£5m for Johnson would be well worth a punt, if that's really their asking price we should get the lad. Saying that, it's probably bollocks.

I dont know to be honest, haven't watched the lad much Me neither really, wouldn't be surprised to see him deployed RM, at least for the moment to give us some solidity and someone who can hit a pass.

was just thinking that, he mentions specialising in one position as one of his reasons for moving, surely that cant be at right back as once fit again the shirt is beye's? Another thought, what about a starting 11 without Duff or Butt!

I didn't expect much more than two signings, and they are in midfield which is a plus. Obviously want more like.

Pleased to have him on board, could we finally see a starting 11 without Damien Duff?!

I bet he's chuffed Bruce opened with "he can also play at the back"!

Keep it up my man, you can get depressed after the deadline.

I've never understood why, when the window is a month long, all the business is done in the last 2 hours.

The sale of Given was inevitable, the (rumoured) fee is a bit low but that's a minor point. Zog also wants out and if we really do get Taylor + £6m it will be great business. Don't see what the fuss is about.

We could with him.

bloody hell I can only imagine what Harry had to do for Mourinho to get that one through
