Lack of signings

Spurs, Arsenal, United, City, Chelsea all need players, not one significant player has been signed.

How come it takes this long? Or no one available? Prices too high? Not looking in the Jan window?

One would expect a lot more activity when 5 teams of the big 6 need reinforcements.

I wasn't expecting Arsenal to make any signings tbh.

So far, so good.

Surely you need a few players upgraded? dont you need a defender and a replacement for Ozil?

To replace ozil, i assume he has to leave first.

City will undoubtedly be spending in the summer. They have pretty much resigned to not winning the league (as they should) so it's pointless looking this January for short term improvements.

Feel for ozil, had ana amzing start to his career. was amazing at madrid. and has now spent the majority in the wrong league at the wrong club.

at least hes earning well out of it.

Signings in the new year window rarely make a great difference. Better wait till the right player is available in the summer.

THAT all depends upon what your injury list looks like!
And Jose is complaining about ours

In terms of Arsenal (and Spurs), a lot of money was spent in the summer and managers were replaced.
Think it is a case of evaluate what you have and keep the powder dry for the Summer.
Although Kanes injury probably pushes Spurs a bit.

Chelsea probably think there is no point buying over their kids unless a top talent is available.

The other 2 are a bit more hard to figure out.

Was thinking this earlier too OP.

Spurs have made a good signing in Gedson, think he will do well there. Apart from that, nothing.

Saw that United are haggling over £10m for the Fernandes. Really? Pay such massive sums for the likes of Maguire and AWB then won't meet the price of the player they need most, very poor by Woodward.

Arsenal's lack of activity is strange.

Chelsea I reckon will get a striker in before the 31st, Cavani maybe.
