“At last the 2010 summer transfer window is over and we can concentrate on watching some football instead of the frenetic efforts of Sky Sports presenters desperately trying to discover some exciting news on deadline day. In reality, it was all a bit of a let down with transfer spend over 25% lower than last year. A variety of reasons have been put forward to explain this drop: the effect of the economic downturn; clubs trying to sort themselves out before UEFA’s Financial Fair Play Regulations begin to bite; and the introduction of restrictions on squad size.” (The Swiss Ramble)
