Liverpool and Arsenal ended up doing the maximum business amongst the top placed sides
Although a January transfer window doesn’t always give us big name transfers, the importance of the transfers conducted last month can’t be undermined. With Coronavirus and injuries wreaking havoc in teams’ squads, clubs frantically engaged in the frenzy to compensate for names left on the injury bed.
Liverpool finally managed to paper over the cracks engulfing their backline while Arsenal were finally able to trim down a squad which was lined up with names said to be surplus to the club.
