6 Things To Expect On Deadline Day

5. Rumour Mill

Messi to Stoke; Ronaldo on his way back to Manchester; Ryan Giggs coming out of retirement... Prepare to be overcome with a ridiculous amount of rumours. Hundreds of pictures will leak on Twitter of Lionel Messi at an airport, claiming he is heading to the Britannia to see if he can actually handle a cold, wet night in Stoke. With new potential transfers leaking every few hours it's hard to trust a source knowing that Twitter is now full of ITKs working in KFC pretending they have their finger on the pulse and stringing along hundreds of thousands of followers. The trouble is, not everyone supports the top clubs and deadline day might be the only hint of faith a supporter has over the next weeks, as a signing on deadline day feels like a mini-trophy for a few minutes. And that's exactly why the rumour mill ensnares so many.
