In order of positive to negative moods.

Im going to go with mildly optimistic and hope we get Traore and Diaz done. Cant be bothered to feel negative at this stage.

Pretty meh right now, but going to wait and see what happens before I start moaning.

There are so many things about the current state of the window that feel very, very similar to windows past. The big difference (on paper anyway) is now we have a DoF whose strength is meant to be getting deals done. It will be very interesting to see if that will actually make a difference, or if this plays out the same way that I would otherwise expect.

In the Meh camp at the moment.

But something must happen in the next week. Will be very odd if it doesn’t with the managers comments.

Always mildly optimistic. I don’t subscribe to the bed wetting routine a lot of us do. January is notoriously hard to get anything done, especially when you’re Tottenham.

Summer or bust.

I never expected much. Thought we’d do Adama and a CM with some outs. I did hope to be surprised, though.

Now it seems it might just be the CM, which I’m fine with, if underwhelmed.

Yep i went meh too. Im sure we will scrape something over the line but yet to be convinced we have learn't anything from the past 10 years and not convinced we have a cohesive plan.

Obviously we need to wait until the end of the window but this seems like every other window, nothing seems to have changed at all.

I’ll happily be ridiculed on 1st February if I’m wrong. ?
COYS.

Here we go again camp, all guys in charge of transfers have history of hating January transfer window and being bad at geting rid of unwanted players. Looks like excuses were being made already with sudden lack of previously expexted income. Don't rate Amrabat at all and I think that Levy might be dumb enough to think that he can get away with not supporting Conte now. I try to be pessimistic when it comes to transfers, Saha and Nelsen deadline day special was enough for one lifetime.

Changed from Meh ... to optimistic...still a bit annoyed with the Traore/Diaz-situations... but I've moved on and Kulusevski plus Bentancur are massive signings for us... at the same time we are getting rid of Tanguy, Dele and Lo Celso. Perfect !! .... 1 more surprise signing and it's suddently a brilliant window... COYS !

Mildly - expecting Traore and Amrabat but hopefully of a nice surprise [Diaz or somebody]

I'm optimistic,

I think Amrabat is a signing which has such little risk and the possibility for high reward. Worst case he is just a warm body, best case he's exactly what Conte wants from a midfielder and is exactly what we need.

Adama I'm still confident of happening and I think the latest noise is Mendes trying to make himself more money but there's so much noise there, I expect it to be pushed through.

Diaz, I feel like we've had so many links to high profile signings like this in the past that I'm trying to keep my feet on the ground but I've maintained the feeling that if we're going to get rid of the outgoings we're planning then we must be doing something big. I'm not sure if Diaz will end up that but I feel like something like De ketelaere might end up happening.

I think ultimately I'm going to try my best to judge on 2 things, 1 is if we make top4 regardless of what signings and the 2nd being what we do in the summer.

I think we're in an excellent position for top4 regardless of the January window and it feels almost imperative we make top4 but understandably we'll be looking at this winter window should we not make it.

I think the 3 names I've mentioned along with Conte as coach would have us smash the top4 race tbh.

I voted mildly optimistic. If we bring in Diaz that will be a better player than I expected us to be able to get this window. It will also be more than any of our top 4 rivals have done.
