Winners, Losers & Transfer Window Abusers

The transfer window is CLOSED — which means it’s time to hand out receipts. 😂 The Five Aside crew debates the biggest winners and losers of the window, from Chelsea somehow turning long contracts into a transfer-market cheat code to Manchester City assembling a midfield that belongs in a Bugatti showroom. Manchester United’s business gets put on trial, Tottenham may have bought an entirely new postcode, and Liverpool’s new-look attack still has plenty to prove. Then the debate heads to Spain: did Real Madrid actually have the best window? Has Barcelona finally found its missing piece? Can Atlético fans forgive Alvarez after the transfer drama?
