January transfer window analysis: Did Newcastle do enough? Will Benitez be happy? Does Lee Charnley deserve some sympathy? Will Islam Sliman

In a special Everything is Black and White Podcast, Newcastle United’s January transfer window is up for discussion. Newcastle United editor Mark Douglas, Newcastle United writer Chris Waugh and host Andrew Musgrove debate whether United did enough in the window. Rafa Benitez was given three new players; Kenedy, Martin Dubravka and Islam Slimani who all arrived on loan. But why did it take until the final day to confirm the Dubravka and Slimani? Have United dropped valuable points in January by waiting until January 31 to bring in arrivals? Is managing director Lee Charnley deserving of some sympathy in terms of transfer business? And what does this window say about Mike Ashley’s long term plans for Newcastle? What about those who have gone - six went out on loan just on deadline day. What does the future hold for them? Will they be back in the summer and handed a new chance to impress under the manager. So sit back and join us for this week’s Everything is Black and White podcast.
