Newcastle miss out on Neymar, Liverpool sign some cover, and Michael Owen saves the world

A flurry of late transfers rounded off what was a much quieter Deadline Day than usual. Join Kate, Andy and Pete to take stock of the window’s movers and shakers, as Newcastle missed out on Neymar and had to settle for Joe Willock instead.

Liverpool did sign some much needed defensive cover, as Schalke’s Ozan Kabak and Preston North End’s Ben Davies join their depleted ranks. We also reminisce about some delightful pettiness from Jesé, hear of Antonio Cassano’s sugary cravings and celebrate Michael Owen’s new role in the global effort against the pandemic. Well done, Michael, they’re thirteen.
