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

[London Villan]

Tammy, Bailey, a winger and a midfielder.

Add Hemmings and the other two kids into that and it doesn't look so bad.

Henry Winter's thoughts on the Abraham move. https://x.com/henrywinter/status/2013615156513624478

Looks like he's a fan of Tammy's.

I think he's a much better forward than he's given credit for. And he's been a little forgotten while being away in Italy and Turkey. He'll provide us with a really good option up front. A different type of player to Ollie who needs competition.

7 goals all season in Turkiye, same as Watkins who does a lot more. Is Tammy a better player than when he last played for us?

His first season at Roma was excellent. He suffered that ACL injury and went out to Milan and then to Bestiktas. He was signed for Roma by Mourinho in 2021 but since then, they have had 4 managers with different styles. So he lost his way at Roma. Even at Besiktas in the time he has been there they have OGS and now Yalcin.

That could just about be the thing to send that lot over the edge.

I think the Palace Managers head would actually explode

The last bit of that sentence makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

Probably yes, and does Watkins do a lot more? I've watched clips of Tammy rolling his marker and beating players with skill, I can't remember the last time Ollie did, if ever. Don't get me wrong, I'm not really having a go at Ollie, just we may be underestimating what Abraham could bring.

I did think the other day though had we have been able to sign Tammy when we came up we'd most likely never have signed Ollie.

Had we been able to sign Tammy when we came up Watkins would never have played for us.

If they are trying to get Glasner to walk then it's a good idea

Abraham brings something similar but different, and he plays where Ollie plays, or can go wider, rather than the other way around. This makes sense to me.

Oi! Shut it! Are they willing to add some cash too? Great player Evann Guessand. Holte End hero.

[Toronto Villa]

Don't you dare...

They're offering us Mateta for £30m, or £40m plus Guessand.
