Hopefully I didn't make any mistakes. Any teams that were not mentioned at all obviously didn't have any activity on deadline day.
Personally I am very pleased with Arsenal's business. All four are fantastic additions to our team, not to mention all are vastly experienced and well known names. It's about time Arsene Wenger made some big signings, but the fact it took an 8-2 smashing to do so is a little disappointing. Nonetheless some great signings have been done and hopefully they all perform well this season.
As for our Outs, it seems that nobody came to us with a suitable offer for Bendtner so we have been forced to send him out on Loan for the season. Who knows, maybe he'll have an impressive season and decide to stay with us if Wenger uses him regularly. As for Lansbury, it's a shame to see him go out on Loan yet again. This is the 4th time since 2008 that we've loaned him out, so I wouldn't be surprised if at the beginning of next season he looks for a Permanant move away.
I was surprised to see Liverpool sell Raul Meireles and buy Craig Bellamy. Personally I don't think Bellamy's worth it because he's such a dick, but I guess you can't shy away from his talent. Also surprised with Man City picking up Owen Hargreaves considering his injury issues. That was the main reason why Man Utd let him go, but it's worth a shot considering he came for free.
What does everybody else think of these transfers?
