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

[UK Redsox]

Seeing as we're getting the old band back together, Tom Carroll anyone?

Trez is only 31 and AEG is a year younger than that.

[Dave]

I do see him as a Tielemans and Barkley type option (wonder if we might have seen the last of the latter tbh)

He's back in training, I'd guess we're about to see more of him than we have since the start of his loan spell.

What's McCormack up to? Apart from eating.

painting his gates I hope

..shouldn't take long, they were only 4ft 6 inches high according to Steve Bruce....that story just about summed up how far we had fallen...

I find it interesting that both Tammy and Dougie have both said their hearts are at Aston Villa and that they have both turned down other offers/more money to ‘come home’.

It’s a bit romantic to think that’s the only consideration, but it’s great to hear these things before hand and not during the obligatory ‘how happy are you……..’ signing interview.

Absolutely - two players who previously enjoyed the happiest times in their career so far at Villa, coming back at a point when we could do something very special. With the news on Kamara, McGinn and Tielemans it would have been very easy to slip into a bit of despondency, but these two coming through the door will really help on that alone.  The fact they are both international level players who should really be at their peak and have a lot to prove is icing on the cake.

Diaby next?

Fuck yeah.

On a free, maybe.

Is it time to resurrect the Doug thread yet?

We really should've signed Alisha too, what a reunion that would be.

I'm really happy Dougie is back and would've still been despite the casualties of the past couple weeks.

They've split up. Though she is only in Leicester, should they wish to get together for the third time.

Apparently Nas gets on well with the Juve owners.

I wonder if we could have Yildiz if he asked nicely?!

[Toronto Villa]

loan with an option to buy is a very good deal for us and him. I imagine there is a sense of regret that he left. He did have a contract offer he didn't sign. That said he gave us an out when we needed PSR relief. I think we will see a very motivated Doug now to prove the Juventus and Forest experiences are not who he proved himself to be with us.

I can't remember a worse time but you know that we've changed so much since then

You both have to want to !!

Might as well get JJ back if finances allow. Either now or in summer.

Do the Jaudi fans think he’s shite?
