Despite all the rumours and last minute "news", Man United only brought a couple of youngsters (here, and here) in the January transfer window, and signed a (IMHO) very very good and experienced keeper in Victor Valdes. For free some more.
Louis van Gaal continued to pare down his squad of "hanger-ons", and it was sad to see some of them go, e.g. Anderson and Fletcher. Another one whom I'd though would do well was Zaha, who returned to Palace. Some of the promising youngsters were also sold (Keane, Vermilj) or loaned out (Janko, Pearson, Rothwell, Lingard)
All in all, a pretty quiet (as expected) transfer window, and it seems van Gaal was telling the truth a few days ago when he said United's business was done.
A full list of the ins and outs can be found here.
Looking ahead, despite the clear need for an experienced CB, this is the squad who will have to take United back into the Champions League in 2015-16.
Bring it on.
