Winter 25-26 Transfer Window - hopes, speculation, rumours etc.

[eamonn]

We've already used our quota of goalies with Zs in their name.

[Smirker]

Fer a striker in January and we are really going to fuck some shit up.

This is our chance to really do something.

[DB]

You never know, a couple of big signings like Jan last season may be on the cards.

[Dave]

As long as we don't completely screw the next four matches, anyone who is available that we want and we are able to sign is going to be willing to crawl over broken glass to join us.

And I can't remember a time when that was ever the case for us.

So can we strengthen the premier league squad without impacting our SCR limits for Europe?

Send Elliott back and loan Salah? 😜

Beat me to it!

Ahem.

Elliot back to Liverpool, Salah to Villa.

Everyone's happy.

(Except Liverpool and quite probably Salah but, pfft, who invented the bloody league?)

Need to move heaven and earth to find a way of giving Emery some reinforcements next month, we have to make this season count.

Agree, but I find it difficult at the minute to see where reinforcements are required given the kind of money we are likely to have available.  I suppose the picture to look at is one where we potentially have a few injuries and where that might leave some holes.

[eye digress]

Similar plan to last year, no? Couple of high profile loanees looking for World Cup fitness and exposure.

Would be helpful if we don't have any off-radar departures for PSR/SCR (Diaby, Duran) and the senior players (Ollie) are on-board with it.

New accounting period for UEFA SCR in January, money we’re unlikely to pay for Harvey freed up. Enzo cash? So we might have some wiggle room.

[Somniloquism]

Or we start playing Elliot now we can actually cover him in the accounts from Jan for UEFA.

He won't get near the team ahead of Rogers and Buendia. He's too much money sank in to a poorly thought out panic signing by Monchi to try to appease everyone and paper over his summer of failure. He will go back and Emery will target a position that does need strengthening, out wide with pace.

Buendia’s form has really put a spanner in Elliot’s future for us.

Nasef could always have an Egyptian to Egyptian chat with Salah. He could be good for half a season
