Deadline day drama

There may not have been as much money spent during the January transfer window as in years gone by, but Deadline Day proved to be typically dramatic as a number of late deals were pushed through.
Queens Park Rangers led the way on Tuesday by bringing in a pair of proven centre-forwards to boost their survival hopes, with Bobby Zamora coming in from Fulham and Frenchman Djibril Cisse recruited from Lazio.
Strikers were certainly in demand elsewhere with the arrival of Rangers' Croatia international Nikica Jelavic at Everton signalling the end of Louis Saha's Goodison Park career.
Saha has been offered a new start at Tottenham after Harry Redknapp gave the injury-troubled forward, 34 this summer, a short-term deal.
Negotiations between White Hart Lane and the Merseyside club also allowed midfielder Steven Pienaar to return to the Toffees on loan a year after leaving them.
