The winter transfer window is upon us once again. However, we cannot expect clubs to be very active like how they are in the summer transfer window as the season has already begun and most of the managers are content with the resources at their disposal.

That being said, certain clubs still need additions - to add options to squad depth and to replace players with long-term injuries - and will be looking to close the deals that they could not in the summer window, this January. The coronavirus pandemic has hit a large number of clubs and clubs will look to cut down on their expenditure for their long-term survival. With the post-Brexit rules coming into play in England, another interesting dramatic transfer window is on the cards.

This article will be a three-part series where I will be looking at the different Premier League clubs, analyzing their squads on a granular level finding out which teams are in desperate need of additions in the January window and which teams are good to go without any additions. This will mostly focus on the different players used by each manager and how much have they considered rotation. In the first part, I will be focusing on the top eight teams in the table (after the completion of Matchday 14).
