January Transfer Window 2026

Hmm, I keep reading in here that the league is much poorer now than it was 10 or 15 years ago 🤷‍♂️

But yes, we are quite far behind those teams that are seriously pushing for champions league places, but to suggest that Moyes is incapable of building a team that pushes for Europe is demonstrably nonsense.
Fwiw I completely disagree with people saying that. There's so much parity and congestion in the league because the league is unbelievably strong.

The prem is untouchably dominant in Europe overall, and also everyone can beat everyone within the league domestically. That tells the story by itself.

Re: Moyes and building a team that consistently challenges for Europe - I think he is a very good prem manager. You don't have the career he's had without that. But he is a high floor, low ceiling manager. He will always play with the handbrake slightly on - that's the price you pay for an absolutely rock-solid floor of midtable level management. And if the stars align, that means that occasionally you will have a good season of overachieving (see: us finishing 4th with a negative goal difference).

I just think TFG want more than that, and I do too tbf
 
If we have an opportunity to even get 15mil for McNeil… that should be an instant yes. He was rotting on our bench the entire season. We splashed 50mil on someone who needs minutes and McNeil is eating into that availability.

Pocket the money, turn it into Wilson, idc. It’s such a no brainer that I’m confused as to why the paperwork isn’t be processed right now.

Looking at the ratings at the bottom there, I think I can tell which team the 83 support, and which the 33 support.
 


Whaaaaaatttt

That is an absolute shocker. Take anything whatsoever. One of the worst players I've ever seen in a blue shirt, papered over by the fact he can score an occasional worldy. He is sub Mark Pembridge in quality. Just get rid. Fire into the sun. There is no reason to keep him whatsoever. It does not weaken us to lose him.
