  1. Ives: Stalteri and Gardner were both loaned out, not transferred. With the signings of Woodgate, Hutton, Gunter, and Gilberto, we have a glut of defenders all of a sudden.

  2. Is it me or do things look kind of bleak for Boca at Fulham? On the flip side Dempsey will begin to play in the midfield again so that is a plus. Thoughts?

  3. Don’t forget about the transfer mess with Benjani. Looks like Portsmouth could be in some financial trouble if the FA doesn’t allow the deal to go through.

  4. Didn’t forget Alves, I left it out due to the beef Heerenveen is having with the move. Hutton and Woodgate were good ones to add.

    And I already had Maniche to Inter Mercury.

  5. You forgot Alfonso Alves to Boro, Ives. Hutton and Woodgate to Spurs were also big transfers, albeit not made yesterday.

    Oh, and Sunderland bought Andy Reid, while Spurs signed Brazilian international Gilberto on the last day as well.
