So the Premier League have voted to change their transfer deadline to just before their season kicks off. I just don't see how they are going to benefit from closing the window early as other leagues can still bid for their players so how does shutting the window stop unsettling players as insinuated? From our standpoint I was thinking about what ed said about waiting for the PL window to shut so we can get players who are not in the plans of their clubs. Do you think this situation will benefit our club?

It's been reported they aren't the only league that wants to do it. They are hoping they set the ball rolling and it ends up forcing eufa to do it to.

I don't think it will be much benefit unless every one does it. But if it was Barcelona and Coutinho they can still bid for him so how does it help from players heads being turned?

Just an idea but why not have one window, open only in June and that's it. What players you have on 1st July are what you have for the whole season and that's it. Would mean teams could plan and players couldn't wait till January and cost clubs money if they move. Just an idea.

Edg it's definetly one way to get the bigger teams to use their youth academies when they're injuries hit rather than throwing millions on replacing players. So many talented youngsters are wasting away!
