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

Didn’t realise that PWS, he looks a bit of a raw talent still not someone approaching their peak

[dorsetvillian]

Maybe another raid on Boro for Hayden Hackney..

[Mister E]

And Disasi is still at Chelsea, unless he has signed for Roma today?

Sorry - you're right; Roma have expressed interest in him.

According to my Boro mate, Everton have had a £25m offer for HH turned down flat.

Loan Ake and offer Wolves £15M for Strand-Larsen.

So Boro are not going to have their pockets picked again.

Hard to do the former and I definitely wouldn't do the latter.

Blimey, if people struggle with Ollie, I’d hate to think what a Strand Larsen thread would be like.

Well top strikers always take all their chances, see Ekiteke.

[eye digress]

The appeal of Strand Larsen is his ability to play as a 9, rather than prolific goal scoring (though I reckon he'd knock in a few for a good team), in contrast with a support striker like Malen.

Not saying he's the answer necessarily, but that potential did cross my mind watching him at VP.

[Dave]

I've said for a while that Emery's track record suggests that any striker would likely excel under him in a way they hadn't before or after.

His successes at Valencia / Sevilla / Villarreal/ us, have all been built on the back of turning a solid, journeyman striker (in the case of the middle two clubs, more than one) into something that they never did again without Emery.

As a result, when we do end up chucking £40m+ at the eventual Watkins replacement, I'm going to be pretty excited to see the result, regardless of what they'd done in their career beforehand.

That said, Strand Larsen would definitely be at the lower end of the nipples-tingling scale.
