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

[eamonn]

A few people on the AV1 bus back last night spoke about Harry Wilson from Fulham for Gbp10m. Haven't seen it anywhere on line so no idea if it was just speculation. Good player.

With the greatest of respect to your sources, I don't think people on a bus will have any particular inside knowledge.

It was Prince William and Nassef on a ‘men of the people’ vibe.

Wolfie knows the score!

Are we going to replace Guessand or just bank the dough and use Bailey? 

Emey suggested the latter this afternoon. I don't know though, he seems to love a deal.

Ah right, cheers.  So we're probably done and from now until the end of the season it's a case of being demanding of ourselves, individually and collectively, and in our way / structure.  And praying to the football gods that we don't get any more injuries.

Avoid any more injuries and we can probably just manage with what we've got now and with a couple coming back.  I just can't help but think that Kamara is a massive miss though and we don't really have anyone else who can replace him.

To be honest, there are probably not many players out there who could replace Kamara, even if we did have the funds.

Kante on a 6 month deal might just about do it lol.

As ever with Villa, we look a mid and a winger short to me going into the second half of the season, but then if McGinn and Tielemans get back a couple of weeks before schedule we might be ok. Much rests on Onana and Barkley staying fit now.

We need another attacker for me. A winger ideally. Not sure who but a loan from abroad makes sense.

Or we sort out the Elliot deal and are able to use him.

Rogers, Buendia, Bailey, Sancho while McGinn out doesn’t feel like enough for me.

Onana did the job at Newcastle. Didn't try a leg during the week so should be nice and fresh for Brentford. Luiz, Bailey and Tammy are three very good players at their best, just need them to settle in quickly.
