Transfer Window Closes

17:00 hours GMT, roughly 23:00 hours IST, the transfer window has closed. Unlike last window's crazy signing of Robinho by Man City, nothing nearly as dramatic has happened. No transfers made today, except for the non performing Robbie Keane making a beeline back to Tottenham (incompetent moron had to score against Arsenal!!), and Arshavin's nearly sealed deal (from highly untrustworthy sources) both of whom have gotten some extra time for closure by FA authorities due to the heavy snowfall in London.

Transfers for the summer so far:

Shay Given joined Manchester City from Newcastle United;
Tal Ben Haim left Eastlands for Sunderland on loan, as did Jo to Everton this morning.

Newcastle signed Ryan Taylor from Wigan and lost Charles N'Zogbia.

Portsmouth signed AEK Athens veteran Angelos Basinas
Christian Panucci did not join Hull,
Roma, signed Marco Motta from Udinese.

Saviola remains at Real Madrid, Blackburn Rovers have retained Roque Santa Cruz.
