Mathematically I believe 1 is classed as a multiple - if that is correct Babel might be the lot !

whilst I think you may be right, the context inferred rather more, it sounded to me like 3 or four.

Ideally 4 if the club are serious about maintaining their Premier League Status.
However, that remains to be seen.

It isn't the number of signings but the quality I worry about most.  If we bring in three last minute transfers of players with zero experience of English leagues then I will be very disappointed but not at all surprised.

Any signings now need to be made with next season in mind.

Little point wasting big money trying to stay up as it's not going to happen. Even with 3-4 good quality signings we're not suddenly going to reach top 6 form, which is what it will take for us to stay up now.

Also, bear in mind it was poor recruitment that got us into this mess in the first place, so we need to be very careful or we'll be fighting relegation again next season, albeit to league 1. Also major FFP issues to think about.

That is the most likely outcome and on the last day of the window. They will be from some far flung country and will have promise but no experience in this country and will have to learn English and adjust to the food, climate and football.
