The Mid-Season or 'January' Transfer Window offers clubs, coaches and fans the opportunities to shape the 2nd half of the season -for better, but sometimes for worse; nothing is guaranteed when it comes to building teams!

This episode Gary and Dave explore how a manager will work in the time before the window opens to begin to target new recruits to come in and how working with the recruitment teams can work. Meetings, videos, web conferences, travel abroad all crammed into the time also required to keep the current team performing as highly as possible! 

Further we look at some recent comments from Michael Owen on whether players from the past could play in the modern Premier League. And then we postulate as to the robustness of current players to have coped with time travel in the opposite direction!
