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

Re Asensio, are two loan moves in the same season allowed? I guess he didn't play for PSG whereas Harvey Elliott did for Liverpool hence him being fucked.

Can we ring a loan player in in the Jan window or are we already full up with them

We need to return someone if we want a domestic player, we're fine if we can find an abroad one.

Ok thanks

He's not on loan in Turkey, they signed him.

Do we really have scope for these big signings given the financial restrictions?

Thought about this long and hard. We should just go get Harry Kane. Scored 60 goals for club and country in 2025. Have Nas lash out a fraction of his billions on a league winning forward. Job done. Map out the parade route around the city.

I would be on board with this cunning plan

Would it encompass Sherlock Street?

[Sexual Ealing]

No. He wouldn’t do all the excellent work Ollie does away from the pitch.

We should have a look at that Greta Thunberg, only 22 as well.

Kane? You could have prime Haaland in the team, but without service even he would struggle. The person who passed the most to Ollie yesterday was Martinez and even his distribution was wayward, especially 1st half. Tielemans was anonymous and even his cross for the second goal was poor until Ollie made something of it.
Rogers is on fire atm, so you can't blame him for taking everything on because it's likely to end up in the back of the net.
Any incomings in Jan are going to have to be well judged, especially because of how well placed we are. We don't want another Cascarino situation.
Our team is a well knit group of honest players, who appear highly supportive of each other, whatever the form of individuals. Unai won't want to unsettle this.

Indeed, this needs to be appreciated. In same vein I have pressed upon Lady Olaftab that she should recognise all the good work I do outside the bedroom.

Not sure it will factor into Emery's thinking. Think it was five players we brought in last January with two of them not even making the CL squad. He let Danny Ings go in his first transfer window when he was our top scorer at the time. If there's a deal to be done then history suggests the club won't think twice.

She is lucky to have you.
