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

Marcus is happy at Barca, the manager is happy with him. All the rest is just arguing about money, it will happen.

[Chip Butty 111]

We were linked to him last year. I wonder if we will look at him again

Konstantinos Karetsas sounds like a Catholic charity. He did look good against Scotland though.

go in the Villa store and ask for that on the back of your shirt..

With all due respect, the last thing it sounds like is a catholic charity...

Dusan Vlahovic is out of contract at Juve. Worth a punt? Monty, would he offer more than Tammy?

Isn't he on something stupid like 400k a week?

[eamonn]

Oh...really? Hopefully it's in old lire.

Isn’t he the chap with rather questionable political views?

No thanks.

I don’t get the clamour for us to buy Rashford - he was excellent against PSG at Villa Park, but apart from that was he that good?

Also if we sign him then Watkins would be pissed off as he took Ollie’s place in the team on quite a few occasions

Agreed, no thanks.

[Monty]

I think Vlahovic is kind of a flat-track bully, to be honest. Plus he's, uh, got a few spicy Balkan takes which I'd rather keep out of the club.

Agree with you sid1964.

Under no circumstances should it be Vlahovic, but we could do with a flat-track bully to see off the dross at the bottom we always drop points against.

With Rashford its just the stars aligning for the very, very rare opportunity to get a genuinely world class player. He was seemingly happy here and the circumstances and finances worked. I'd agree he wasn't great in every game but he was in enough of them to see what could be once he was fully up to speed.

Still reckon its nailed on for Barca mind.
