    Making the case for scrapping the January transfer window

    Over the years, the January transfer window has provided plenty of entertainment, as clubs frantically scramble to complete medicals and fax contracts as the minutes tick away on deadline day. The January transfer window was first introduced by UEFA in 2003, despite most Premier League sides being against it… and was intended to create “stability” in the game, allowing teams to focus on the second half of the season, rather than the marketplace. One of the biggest issues is how it strips smaller clubs of their best talents and widens the gap between them and  the biggest clubs—like when Liverpool signed Virgil Van Dijk from Southampton, or Wilfried Bony was taken from Swansea by Manchester City.

    Here's the January transfers that each ‘Big Six’ Premier League club should make

Jurgen Klopp has admitted it’s unlikely they’ll buy anyone in January, but someone like Burnley’s James Tarkowski or Bournemouth’s Nathan Ake would fit the bill nicely. Manchester City are deep in every department except defensive midfield: we’ve already seen this season how they suffer without Fernandinho and they should be thinking about his long-term replacement.
