Futbolitinos, the transfer deadline window is now shut! Seedy
agents all became instant millionaires when "under the table" deals were finalized yesterday,
including Coutinho's loan move from Inter Milan to Espanyol
(above).
The transfer window for English club's slammed shut last night at 11pm, with Everton grabbing
former midfielder Steven Pienaar from Tottenham on-loan on the final hour.
Harry Redknapp one of the shrewdest managers in the transfer market surprisingly
signed injury prone Everton striker Louis Saha, also in the final hour after
losing Roman Pavlychenko for £8m to Russian side Lokomotiv Moscow .
The transfer window came to a close yesterday with some very interesting signings across Europe.
Once again attention was centred on the EPL where a host of clubs were keen on bolstering their
squads for the remainder of the season.
However, it was to be a bitter sweet day for league leaders Manchester City who despite
capturing Roma midfielder David Pizarro on loan, suffered a 1-0 away defeat to Everton.
The winter transfer window across Europe closed on Tuesday, and a number of teams -- not the usual
big-spenders -- that were scrambling to fill vacancies and address needs for the second half of
their respective seasons were able to add some valuable pieces to the puzzle.
Queens Park Rangers fall into that category, adding firepower in the form of former Lazio
striker Djibril Cisse and Fulham forward Bobby Zamora.

Former Manchester City manager Mark Hughes has told the Premier League leaders that his Queens
Park Rangers side can help them claim the Barclays Premier League title if they loan out-of-favor
striker Carlos Tevez to the West London outfit.
Hughes has entered the bidding for Tevez's services after the links to both Milan clubs, PSG,
and most recently, even Liverpool, broke down without significant progress.
The winter transfer window in Europe is set to close today, and teams are still scrambling to
fill vacancies and address needs for the second half of their respective seasons.
While we don't seem likely to have any megastars making winter transfer moves, despite resurgent
rumors of Carlos Tevez to AC Milan, there is still some serious talent changing addresses.
Another exciting match is upon on us Monday when two of the historically best teams in Italy
collide in the country's capital, as Juventus travel to face Roma. This will be the Old Lady's
fifth game in a little over two weeks. Juventus are coming in with blistering form as they continue
to get positive results.
Saturday evening in Italy hosted two monumental games as Juventus travelled to the San Siro to take
on Inter, and Milan travelled to the Stadio Olimpico in Rome to face Roma hoping to pick up a win
for the first time since March 2005. AC Milan have started this season in Serie A from the bottom
up but ever since injured players have been coming back especially Kevin-Prince Boateng and Robinho

Roma vs Shakhtar Donetsk from the Stadio Olimpico, Rome
Not one of the most glamorous ties on paper for various reasons, it should be an interesting one

2010 with a 2-0 loss to Napoli.
Italians Roma host Ukrainian outfit Shakhtar Donetsk in the last 16 of the UEFA
Champions League on Wednesday night in one of the knockout round's more open ties.
The hosts are currently in the midst of financial and club turmoil with things both on and off
the pitch being far from rosy.
