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

Watching Gala-Juve, I can see why we get linked to Yilmaz and Sara. McKennie looks like he can play anywhere and made one of their goals.

Whenever I hear McKennie I always think of Leeds fans chanting 'you fat bastard' at him. While he played for Leeds.

Did you mean Yildiz? Not heard us been linked with him, unfortunately he’ll go to a supposedly bigger club.

He means Yıldız (who is very very good yes!).

Juve were shocking second half.  So bad it should give us hope that we could sign Yildiz.  We must be one of the most upwardly mobile clubs around, despite everything.

^^ Harsh on Buendia and his 7 goals and 5 assists.

Maybe a bit harsh, but he's a player that we'd moved on from, yet have had to bring back and rely on quite heavily due to our situation.

but you've got the timeline wrong. He was back in the mix and playing before Sancho and Elliott even joined so we didn't 'bring him back' because they were shit.

Wasn't necessarily following that timeline.  Buendia had been moved on, but then had to be brought back and has featured heavily.  He's probably played more because the three brought in after him haven't really worked out.

I like Emi and think he's a good player at a certain level, but I don't think he's someone we need to be relying on to start regularly.

According to Emery, Emi wasn’t moved on, he was sent away to regain his fitness,

Pretty much everywhere suggested that Leverkusen could have bought him for 20m as part of the loan deal, they just chose not to.

So that suggests that moving him on wasn't something keen to stop from happening.
