Same thing happens every window with Everton.
Starts of with a signing that´s been nailed on for ever, ie. McGeady.
Next it starts going into overdrive with 22 yo spectacular Belgians on the verge of coming in from the continent in high profile deals costing actual money. Inevitably though these hit snags when agents/owners start to demand actual money.
Then, as weeks go buy, the quality of player with which we are linked gradually worsens until we reach Kenwyne Jones stage. Then nothing.
..Until deadline day where we usually bring some quality in in deals that surprise everyone and for players reliably in the middle ground between the fantastic and the underwhelming.
Will be the same this month. We´ll get 1-2 good players, no more no less.
