January Transfer Window 2026

[Simon Buttle]

Wait for the Thomas Soucek links...

Tbh I'm going to done if we sign White, its just more can kicking, we never ever learn and I'm so fed up of it. This is a stupid club that is run by clueless idiots.

 

[jazzy]

Ben White .....hmmm.

Typical Moyes signing - getting on , expensive and can play more than one position.

He isn't a specialist RB but to be fair very competent there .

Is he a better RB than O'Brien? Yes of course.
Will he be our RB in 3 years? No but then Moyes won't care because he won't be here.

A very slow sea side golf course

Absolutely not the sort of right back we need. Whether we have Ndiaye or Dibling on the right, they both want to drift infield. We need a right back who can overlap and provide an attacking threat.

Ben White is basically a much better version of JOB, in that he's a converted centre back who's very good on the ball but he doesn't have the instincts to do the role as we would need him to.

In addition to that, he'd be on very big wages and he comes across as a right ted.

Ben White would be absolutely perfect for us. Think you're seriously underestimating how good he is on the ball.

He’s very good on the treatment table I believe

 

[blulouie]

Not sure really especially with his input in bringing in rubbish like Allan and lack of commitment Rodriguez. He'd of brought more rejects from his previous sides on ridiculous money so he could easily of crippled us too

So you know that would happen ,right ?

So you are questioning one of the greatest managers of all time then.

You tipify a lot of our fanbase .

He'd be perfect for us. Not a long term solution but not all solutions need to be long term. Can also cover multiple positions.

I don't know of course not. Ancelotti isn't my cuppa tea to be honest and he's never been a team builder but more of a man manager who works well with star players and big ego's

He's good on the ball but he's not the profile of right back we need. Not a rapid, overlapping proper attacking fullback.

Improves us but after however many years of needing a proper right back, I'm not having Ben White.

 

[Somerset Blue]

Ben White on loan would make total sense to me, fills 2 possible positions and we can look at a long term solution in the summer.

Watching Rodriguez in an Everton shirt was probably my highlight of the last ten years. For a few games there, in the dark dispair of COVID, we were playing as good as anyone in the PL. Let me have that at least. The Dogs of War mentality grinds you down. It was nice to have " nice things" for a minute

 

[ObiWanIwobi]

There is no chance that we sign Ben White, surely? Maybe unfair, but I’m not sure he eats, sleeps, breathes football and I’d be astonished if he was open to giving up the London lifestyle.

Holm looks to be the lad we should be in for [based on a 5-min YouTube montage].

But long, very, very long.

He's good on the ball, but he isn't a proper overlapping full back with quality delivery. He's the sort of full back that Arteta likes who's like an extra centre back but with quality on the ball, it isn't what we need at all.
