Short term fixes should never be looked down upon. We did them really well in the 09-10 season - Harewood, Best, Van Aanholt, Williamson, Routledge. Chelsea used to do them all the time - Anelka, Beletti. Man U getting Weghorst last year, them getting Henrik Larsson. Even way back, Klinsman to Spurs pretty much saved them from relegation.
