Spurs have done some good business with Maddison and Johnson. I'd have loved to have seen Maddison at Villa, think we've missed a trick there.

I jokingly suggested on the opening weekend that we went for the wrong Leicester player, but maybe we did.

I've just seen on a BBC graphic that we have signed Ansu Fati on loan. Surely that is a mistake. I thought he'd gone to Brighton.

French window closed so Digne definitely not going anywhere, just in case there was any lingering doubt.

Kasper Schmeichel is a free agent as of 5 minutes ago.....

Good keeper, but he'd never come to be a no. 2, and he must be a massive wanker. Imagine adding a private education and an immensely privileged upbringing to the genes inherited from his father. Doesn't bear thinking about.

Kasper Schmeichel would be great, but i doubt he’d come in as back-up. He lived in solihull for a while when he was at leicester.

Wasn't he terrible in his last season with Leicester? Granted the clowns they had in goal last season might have clouded the memory somewhat.

Ross Barkley was a predictable joke tonight for Luton. Walking around pitch. The absolute last player you want in a relegation battle, hooked long before the end unsurprisingly.

We've signed Diaby and Zaniolo in the position where Maddison plays.

Did he sulk his big red face off ?

Maddison is a bell end.

Typical spurs signing. They’ve spent the last thirty years desperately trying to sign the new Glen Hoddle.

One attempted dribble by Barkley in the second half was both sad and funny.

Good player though, unfortunately. Kasper is an even bigger bell-end but I'd have him as a number 2 if his ego (and wages) would allow it.

And it's closed, unless you're Arsenal, in which case it closes next Thursday afternoon.  Great window for Villa.

Seb Revan and Bidace both gone.  Really busy window for Villa.

I wasn't talking positions, just that Madison and Barnes both had better opening weekends than Tielemans did. But everyone was shit that week, and Barnes hasn't done much since, so Madison is really the only one that's been consistent over the three weeks, which yes, is too short a time to judge the success of a transfer.
