The window has been closed!

-BANG- That was the sound of the summer transfer window closing. This year there’s been a lot of people getting sucked in and out of that window.

Lawrie Sanchez had managed to get rid of lot players in a fairly short period of time. In my eyes he’s gotten rid of some dead wood in the squad but also lost a few good players in the process. He hasn’t really brought in any big names, but still a core of quality and some decent squad players.

IN:

Aaron Hughes [d] – Aston Villa
Steven Davis [mf] – Aston Villa
Diomansy Kamara [f] – West Bromwich Albion
Chris Baird [d] – Southampton
Paul Konchesky [d] – West Ham
David Healy [f] – Leeds
Lee Cook [mf] – Queens Park Rangers
Adrian Leijer [d] – Melbourne Victory
Hameur Bouazza [f/mf] – Watford
Kasey Keller [gk] – Borussia Mönchengladbach
Nathan Ashton [d] – Charlton
Dejan Stefanovic [d] – Portsmouth
Shefi Kuqi [f] – Crystal Palace
Seol Ki-Hyeon [f/mf] – Reading
Danny Murphy [mf] – Tottenham

OUT:

Matthew Collins [mf] – Swansea
Claus Jensen [mf] – Retired
Tomasz Radzinski [mf] – Skoda Xanthi
Mark Pembridge [mf] – ?
Mark Crossley [gk] – Oldham
Vincenzo Montella [f] – Roma
Wayne Routledge [mf] – Tottenham
Jan Lastuvka [gk] – Shaktar Donetsk
Heidar Helguson [f] – Bolton

Michael Brown [mf] – Wigan
Franck Queudrue [d] – Birmingham
Zat Knight [d] – Aston Villa
Gabriel Zakuani [d] – Stoke
Papa Bouba Diop [mf] – Portsmouth

Now we just have to wait to see if Sanchez has identified the right players and positions to improve.

Bring on Spurs!
