Summer 26 Transfer Window - hopes, speculation, rumours etc.

[ASHTONVILLA]

It seems we are being linked with players that can play right back and centre back. We know Emery has been looking for a player like this for the squad - hence dissasi on loan.

Joe Gomez is not a bad squad player, has regularly played 20 gmes or more a season for a decade at Liverpool, and picked up plenty of silverware doing so. For the right price it fixes a problem.

Also seen us linked with Gertruida again, who has just had a good season on loan at Sunderland - similar profile player.

Neither would be exciting signings, but both would be able to cover Cash better than Bogarde has or Disasi did.

Isn’t it mandatory that Joe Gomez is linked with us?

Jo Gomez, Jao Felix, Ferran Torres, every summer, all summer.

Where is Felix

[rob_bridge]

Gomez has been injury prone and  dire under 2 Liverpool managers - 1 very good, 1 OK.

I wouldnt touch him unless early summer signing smd Emery agrees early summer

Where is Felix

Someone popped him out a bit earlier, through the patio door, he hasn’t come home yet yet.

Just get Óscar Mingueza sorted to put an end to these shite player rumours.

Seconded.

[olaftab]

I still maintain that unless it's someone really exciting (i.e Rashford) then our new winger should be 25-26 years old, maximum.

Agreed.

Double agreed. Barnes is an ordinary player and adds to our ageing team problem.

[olaftab]

Barnes replaces Sancho. Which, honestly, does feel like an upgrade.

Very unfair comparison. The lamp post at the front of my house will do better than Sancho.

[PeterWithesShin]

Gomez, Barnes, Wilson, Bowen. It's as though Gregory and MON are still in charge.

Gomez, Barnes, Wilson, Bowen. It's as though Gregory and MON are still in charge.

Indeed. I can handle Wilson on a free but if those were our signings it’d be very shortsighted. Fortunately I suspect they won’t be.

[German James]

Rashford's only 28! I thought he was about 40! He'd be a more inspiring signing than the ones on PWS's list... But probably a little over budget.

[ADVILLAFAN]

Ibrahim Mbaye for €40M according to rumours. PSG teenager. First goal was from an Asencio assist.

[Rigadon]

Bidding war for Rogers imminent according to Talk Sport.  Arsenal, Man Utd and Chelsea.  £80m up to £100m. 

They’ve won a cup for Villa so they’ll always have a special place in our history, but seeing him playing corner ball or ponce about in a red shirt up north would be pretty sour. 

[PaulWinch again]

Unless there is either a really desperate need to sell or there is a release clause I can’t see why we’d consider £80m, given the prices being talked about for the likes of Anderson and Gordon.

I definitely wouldn’t sell, but if we did I would only condo £100m +.

[DrGonzo]

Ah now this is my kind of transfer nonsense, “According to Spotsboom (who?) Emery is keen to sign Jason Sancho permanently if a deal can be reached…”
That’s got more plot holes than your average Marvel film nonsense!
