Winter 2025 Transfer Window - hopes, speculation, rumours etc.

Tyler Dibling, according to the BBC gossip page (link is to the Sun).

Give his family free tickets for the Lower Grounds today. Done deal.

Depends which right-back. If Cash plays the next few games like he's played the last few, I'm not sure what that January upgrade looks like.

Not so much an upgrade (though I do think we probably do need better than Cash if we are going to go to the next level) just another option there, as Cash has his fitness issues and so we don't have to re-jig the defence when.he is missing.

Konsa did brilliantly today at right back but a right back and a right sided forward are a must in Jan. The forward probably more so, final ball, pace, ability to make a good decision. Bailey and Philogene have been like having 10 men at times.

Yeah - those are our biggest weaknesses.  Konsa does well there often, but hes better than Carlos at RCB - without even talking about rotation.

He did well but Southampton offered virtually  nothing. Its against the better sides he struggles. Definitely  a area we need to think about in the next two windows

I don't think it's specifically a Right sided winger we need, but more an adaptable pacy forward who can play across the line.

Really? - I think it is time to call time on Bailey and bring in someone who can make space, beat his fullback and add something a little more spicy in attack - Tyler Dibling?! Harvey Barnes (who, I know, plays more off the left)?

an adaptable pacy forward who can play across the line.

Both Watkins and Duran have these attributes, don't they?

Didn't think much of Dibling yesterday. One good run, but wasted the only good break they had second half by keeping the ball instead of passing it. Against that, I thought Walker-Peters looked very good. He is out of contract in the summer.

I like W-Peters: plays both sides and full of energy. I noticed yesterday that he drifted alot - which may or may not be a good thing. I'd definitely take him: cut a desk in January for a move in July.

Being linked with Dewsbury-Hall in Jan, which should be worth a few National Trust jokes at least.

Not exactly a priority position to fill ...

[dcdavecollett]

Agreed, but If we are interested in W-P, we may wait until the summer for PSR reasons.

No thanks

I wouldnt  say no to gibbs white. A very good player

Good player but we’re well stocked in his position. RB and a winger is priority, but I’d prefer no purchase (or loan) than a panic buy.
