After another month of lengthy deals, the transfer window in the Premier League closed.
Even after the deadline on Monday evening 11 p.m., some offers could be completed overnight – but who has a good window and who didn’t leave it?
Let’s look at the winners and losers of the January window as soon as it looks …
winner
Aston Villa
Aston Villa’s season looked at a crossroads when striking Ollie Watkins and Jhon Duran were associated with trains from the club at the same time.
After Watkins had rejected all overtures from Arsenal and the villa had redeemed £ 65 million for Duran, the villa secured the loan with Marcus Rashford by Manchester United, who was inspired.

Rashford has had little trust and form for some time, but is an undisputed talent, and a new home in the M6 could be the tonic it needs.
The villa then added a three-time Champions League winner to the rows, with Marco Asensio’s deadline to be signed.
“Many people will be disappointed that he is gone” 😔 😔
“There is no doubt that the talent that the boy has, incredibly” 🔥

Donyell Maleeen from Borussia Dortmund looks another clever addition, while defender Diego Carlos was allowed to go, which could be briefed in the back.
Manchester City
Pep Guardiola’s side was in poor form – and reached a new low in Arsenal last weekend.
However, they spent great to bring Abdukodir Khusanov, Vitor Reis and Omar Marmoush to add some numbers and options to the squad. The two young defenders may need time to be rated, but Forward Marmoush looks a proven threat.

And in the period from 11 p.m. they added another in Porto midfielder Nico Gonzalez.
If you pull out the fading Kyle Walker, the right call also looks.
Crystal palace
Palace added Millwall attacker Romain Esse and the experience of the left-back of Chelsea Ben Chilwell, but for the second transfer window in a row they managed to hold the English defender Marc Guehi.

Last summer, the Eagles declined £ 65 million from Newcastle and on the Deadline Day it was reported that Tottenham was ready to spend £ 70 for the middle. Palace knew that they couldn’t afford to lose him at a price and did a great job to keep her husband.
Brentford
Another club whose window is measured on which you have kept. Yoane Wissa and Bryan Mbuemo have recognized themselves for the bees since Ivan Toney’s departure and both are men.
Nottingham Forest demanded to Wissa in January, but the bees held firmly and retained their two price ability – at least for the time being.
loser
arsenal
After Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Jesus were injured and a title challenge that arsenal fades really had to be signed to sign a striker.
This is easier said than done -and the reported interest in Villa’s Watkins was at least a sign of intention -that it does not leave a disappointing taste in the mouth for Arsenal fans.
Should you do more?
Manchester United
When United released Erik Ten Hag in October, they certainly could not have expected to be in this position at the end of January.
United is the 13th place in the Premier League table and goes to the last stages of the season with more questions than answers from the new boss Ruben Amorim.
The club signed defenders Patrick Dorgu, but this was immediately counteracted by the serious injury of Lisandro Martinez.
Pretty sure now @Manutd I will not sign anyone today. Your PSR position made it quite difficult to buy someone without selling someone for a profit and credit market, but in the end there are no offers.

The club decided to reduce the wage bill and to rent Antony and Rashford – but the squad added without attackers.
Coach Amorim wanted a new striker on the last day of the window, but United’s move for the Bavarian Munich Mathys Tel. The Rocks and 19-year-old are looking for Tottenham.
Leicester City
In the relegation zone and the need for help, the only gossip of the Deadline Day revolved around a possible exchange contract with wolves for Conor Coady.
Ruud van Nistelrooy was only able to add Woyo Coulibaly from Parma to the window and his hands look positively bound.
