There is no smoke without fire and Manchester United's deadline day might still produce some fireworks - even if a damp fuse fizzling out to nothing feels more likely.
The Red Devils have teased the prospect of signing some of Europe's most exciting players this month but Ralf Rangnick's side have put all their eggs in one basket with less than 24 hours to go.
United are yet to bless the 'Godfather of German football' with a signing at Old Trafford and, unfortunately, he has nothing more to show for this month than a rendition of his favourite Sam Smith song -Way too Good at Goodbyes (and you thought Ralf was more of a Kraftwerk guy).
