Ones that I'm most thankful we didn't get have to be Carlton Cole and Gareth Barry.
Realistic options that I wish we had gotten this window - Eljero Elia, Arturo Vidal, Blaise Matuidi, and Jeremy Menez.
I fear that if Lucas goes down, we will realize how short of cover we are at the holding midfield position, and one of Matuidi/Vidal would have been perfect in this role.
We also need another winger who can create off the dribble and carve chances out of nothing, and both Elia and Menez can do this.
