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

Gomes is the other one there that’s pretty handy isn’t he. Not sure we’re getting either though tbh

I watch Palace loads with father in law ( season ticket holder )  and hes 80 and struggles now with trains never running and the weather and cost so I always let him watch Palace here at home and he really likes Villa too as his grandson is mad Villa , you can imagine how we feel watching Villa v CP.

I would say If fans get on Watkins back regarding his easy chances missed then wait until they see Mateta play , he misses loads.

What we really want is a striker who converts 100% of his chances.
Does he exist?

Arthur Scargill came the nearest.

Definitely a Laugh Out Loud Moment.
Brilliant.

Hey lay your burden down, it seems the last day of the miners' strike was the Magna Carta in this part of town

We're not spending £40m or whatever Palace want on Mateta. It's being used purely to hurry along the Abraham deal.

I posted that and got called an “incredible twat”.

Was that down to the post?

No it was down to the rudeness and lack of social skills of the poster.

🚨🇲🇦 Youssef En-Nesyri will decide his future soon with several clubs keen. After Napoli and Juventus, Aston Villa also called in the last 24h.

Villa have been working on Tammy Abraham deal for days, agreed on player side but still not with Besiktas.

Italian clubs remain keen.

A couple of players mentioned in the rumours sections with regards to other clubs, Wilfrid Ndidi and Angel Gomes, both seemingly available. Could either do a short term job for us?

I recall Ndidi being more defensively minded.

[Dante Lavelli]

Could we recall Enzo Barrenechea?

The consensus is he's triggered the clause to make the deal permanent however they, like us with Elliot, might want an excuse to void the deal.

I seem to remember (and I may be wrong) his deal was perm after 10 games.

[N'ZMAV]

we need to do something tomorrow ideally, so the player(s) can be registered in time for the weekend game

[Rigadon]

We won’t be buying anybody in time / who will be ready to play this weekend.  Not a chance.

Season long loan, obligation to buy. Conditions were made public as Benfica is a listed company on the Portuguese Stock Exchange.

Was a big fan when he was at Sevilla….personally I’d be happy with him or Tammy at this point…Mateta I’m not as keen on.

[andyh]

Angel Gomes ?
Is that the midget who played for England when anyone could get a cap ?

If so…….fuck off, no ta.

[Ozzjim]

En Neysri put in one of the best centre forward displays I’ve ever seen in one of Sevillas games a couple of years ago, I thought he would be an incredible signing. Seems to have dipped since, but would be a good player in the prem I reckon.
