Happy Friday and New Year, Spursland!
Hopefully this morning finds you well, not various states of disrepair; but even if you are reading this on your mobile from your neighbor's bushes, covered in urine and blood, it a joyous time. Yes, it's 2016, but not only are we ushering in a new year today, it's the official start of the January transfer window! [Editor's note: the transfer window actually opens on Saturday, January 2. Which is probably good because nobody wants transfers happening while people are still hung over.]
In honor of the journalistic charade of transfer rumors hitting peak #batcountry, I offer this song.
Enjoy, relax, and happiest of New Year's to you.
COYS!

Harry Redknapp warns Tottenham off signing Berahino| Mirror
Why go for that petulant, young talent when the likes of Kevin Phillips are out there? So he's retired, big deal. That's a haircut and scoring record you can set your watch to. Top signing.
Danny Murphy says Liverpool has three players that would break Spurs starting XI| Mirror
Your scouts didn't die for this, Liverpool.

You'll always be my first and last 2015, 2015. It's time we move on. Oh, I see you already have.
