January Transfer Window 2026

If he’s not good enough for Sunderland he shouldn’t be good enough for us
Very surprised I got 3 unsure’s on that post. This is Sunderland we’re talking about and this guy only averaged 1 goal in 3.5 games in the championship and has the same number of goals as Barry. I’m not sure how many starts he has. But our aspirations should be miles above him

Sometimes it's not players not being good or bad it's whether their attributes suit the club or what are the particular preferences of their manager, he's looked decent on the pitch when I've watched him and just because a player doesn't thrive at one club doesn't always indicate they're terrible.

Disagree, the guy is 25 and played for 8 clubs already . Didn’t score many goals in the championship and hasn’t many in the prem. he’s not turning up at Everton and getting 15/20 goals. Yakubu scored goals at Portsmouth, Middlesbrough and then Everton.

I'm not expecting him to get 15 to 20 goals 😂 maybe you need to reassess your expectations if you think bringing in a striker for 25m would be that fruitful. I think as a possible Beto upgrade it could be something, ultimately I'm indifferent either way

Yeah I mean he’s probably better than Beto but that would just be the latest in the line of thinking that got us Rondon (better than nothing), Maupay (better than Rondon) and Beto himself (better than Maupay).

Unless he’s decidedly better than Barry, and there’s no real indication he is, I don’t see the point in lobbing more money at a small incremental upgrade to Beto.

Loads on this site in the summer said beto
Would get 12 to 15. DCL is on
His way to 15. It’s not a huge amount. The last thing we should be doing is paying 25mil for another striker who’s unproven at this level.
If he’s not that fruitful then don’t waste the money. It’s a 40mil outlay on fees and wages for a potential upgrade on Beto. If that’s the best the club can do, then the recruitment team need sacking
 
Interested in Harry Wilson on a free according to TalkSport, from 6.25 onwards, sorry if already posted


Better than McNeil so if we could sell McNeil and have Wilson as backup that would be fine. No idea why he'd join us as backup though when surely plenty of clubs, maybe not necessarily in the Premier League though, would guarantee him a start each week.
 
Oh B****cks! Fulham and Leeds are after Troy Parrott at £17m. Great buy at that price, a natural goal scorer.

Oh, hold on, he's only 6'1". We only buy 6'5" lampposts to play CF. And what was I thinking of ... we never buy CFs who can hold the ball when pressed and most certainly we'd never be so foolish as to buy a CF who can strike a ball with accuracy or power.
