Swansea City manager Garry Monk has likened the January transfer window to a cattle market.

The Swans recruited four players last month and Monk has not ruled out further signings before the window closes.

"It can be a bit ridiculous at times. The summer [transfer window] is a lot easier than this one," Monk said.

"[It's] a cattle market and everyone's selling all their cows and they're overpricing the cows - some of them are bad.

"If the valuations are wrong, which they normally are in this window, you can't do the deal."

"I think Wilfried Bony is a very good footballer and guarantees goals. He gives Manchester City the extra striker but can he bridge the gap to the top?

"Will Manuel Pellegrini play him and Sergio Aguero together in the big games? I still think Chelsea are title favourites."

Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe has told BBC Radio Solent that there will be no incomings at the Championship club today. That looks to have ended the Cherries' current pursuit of Birmingham winger Demarai Gray, after having a £5m bid rejected by their Championship rivals.

Stoke City

If ever there was a day to give you no news, it's today. I can tell you there is no further progress on a possible loan move to the Britannia Stadium for Aaron Lennon. If a deal was to go through it would be until the end of the season but the club say a move for the Tottenham winger still hangs in the balance.

"There is enough at West Brom, especially with Tony Pulis managing. Victor Anichebe can do more, but it wouldn't surprise me if Pulis does some late business. The type of player they want though, may not be in their wage structure."

Italian Serie A

BBC World Service Sport's John Bennett:

"Earlier today I told you about reports that Samuel Eto'o refused to train today at Sampdoria, just six days after joining the Italian club from Everton.

"He was said to be angry that head coach Sinisa Mihajlovic had organised a double training session.

"Mihajlovic has now been quoted in Gazetta Dello Sport, external saying: "I consider this to be showing a big lack of respect to me and the rest of the team. I don't know why he left or what the club will do." Mihajlovic also denies having an argument with Eto'o."

Andrew in Richhill: Lionel Messi has been spotted in the queue at the fish and chip van outside the Britannia Stadium. The word on the street is that he wants to finally dispel the myth that he couldn't do it on a wet and windy night in Stoke.

Chelsea

Juan Cuadrado had an excellent World Cup last summer, linking up well with Real Madrid man James Rodriguez.

Check out his finest tricks, runs and crosses here.

Liverpool

There is a growing belief here that Rickie Lambert could well end up at Aston Villa this evening. Hands up who expected Liverpool to make a profit on Lambert?

"Danny Ings looks like a player that didn't want to be at Burnley at the weekend. By keeping him, they may be cutting off their nose to spite their face. I am not sure he will refocus to keep Burnley in the Premier League."

Alex Stewart
Football Manager computer game expert

Today Fifa Interactive World Cup 2014 Grand Final competitor David Bytheway, external and Football Manager expert Alex Stewart will be providing insight and analysis of players involved in deals from a gamer's perspective.

"Some players just seem to fit a team and Juan Cuadrado ends up being bought by Chelsea in almost every game of Football Manager I play. He doesn't improve enormously, but with great ratings for pace, first touch and dribbling, he doesn't need to, and he averages fantastic ratings for the Blues, justifying his roughly £30 million price tag."

Sam B: I am a Stoke fan and I hope that we sign Aaron Lennon. We need another attacking midfielder to cover Bojan's position

Deals that could still happen?

• MK Dons Dele Alli to Spurs, he'll be loaned back to MK until the end of the season.

• Aston Villa in talks with Liverpool for Rickie Lambert, possibly for £5m.

• Southampton to sign Filip Djuricic.

"Real Sociedad possibly signing Danny Ings would mean they get him on a free at the end of the season. It is great move from David Moyes. If it doesn't work out, he could move back to the Premier League for a fee. He is a Moyes type player too, works hard and can play up top on his own."

"Former Real Madrid youngster joins Accrington" isn't something you see every day. But this is transfer deadline day, and it's happened. Midfielder Gerardo Bruna, also once of Liverpool, has signed a deal with the League Two club until the end of the season.

Accrington need a keeper though. I urge you to watch the mighty Cobblers' five goals past them on Saturday. The keeper's had an absolute mare...

Chelsea

Chelsea's new Colombian forward seems very happy with his move...

"Palace close to signing Wilfried Zaha, and are also close to completing the permanent signing of Bolton winger Lee Chung-yong, with Barry Bannan going in the opposite direction on loan."
