January Transfer Window 2026

I can’t help but feel Garner is becoming a bit overrated by other clubs fanbases. He’s a tidy enough player who does a good job filling in where needed but he’s nothing special, really.

Said it the other day, he’s a good utility player. Nothing special but he’ll always do a job wherever he’s asked to play.

every squad needs players like him dependable utility men we need to sign him long term asap

About 6/7 other first team players who need replacing before James Garner.

Massively underrated.

Agreed. However long term ( if we are going to be successful) a player of his calibre should not be starting but would be a valued squad player.

We're a long way away from this.

We need a long term replacement for Gana.
I'd try for Mason Mount. Excellent middle of midfielder.

Hmm, interesting my son, but then we need to recruit a left of middle of midfield midfielder and a right of middle midfielder.
Only then will our micro midfield be able to compete at middle of the upper middle midtable places.

God bless.

Is Parrott’s all-round game decent or do people just emotionally want him after what he’s done for Ireland? His record in England isn’t great and the Dutch league just isn’t a serious place - some random team won 8-2 the other week ffs!

Wasn’t he 21 when he went to Holland?

Yes? Just saying he had two lower league loans and didn't really do anything.

Harry Kane had a few failed loan spells in the lower leagues means nothing at that age, I think parrot would be a good signing if we can get him at a reasonable price

….there are many thousands of strikers who have had loan spells in the lower leagues, funny how posters often highlight Harry Kane.

Alway hard to tell, pretty sure he was on loan at Preston at the same time as Tom Cannon and Cannon was looking a better player scoring more goals.

There's a big difference between Eredivisie and the Premier League, would be a big gamble for the fee they'd want now.

I’ve heard Moyes is after a Parrot.

Said Parrot is a toffee too.

This is it, if we can get him at a reasonable price. I'm sure after his recent international goals that price might just be creeping up a bit. I like the look of him, just don't know if the goals in the Dutch league will transfer over. If Beto moves on and we can get him in for a similar cost I'd take the risk.

Think is a good player but still want to see more from him, feel sometimes is abit to safe want to see him control games more. Do feel his postion in that holding role in the mid we do need another player.

He’s got 8 goal contributions in all his prem games which must be over a 100 and 20 yellow cards. He’s a good player but we need much better to challenge the top 8/6
