January Transfer Window 2026

[Librarian]

I saw a story that we are going after their youth academy director which could be interesting.

*knows the city

It would be a bit of a coup tbh, our youth setup seems as though its lacking a bit of impetus and in need of a bit of a revamp whereas theirs is clearly very organised and been very lucrative in recent years.

 

[Curtis]

Strikers can be very streaky.

He needs the hustle and bustle of the PL.

Hopefully the Roma and Coleman-O'Brien-Travers links could swing for us.

Easily worth the chance to take on loan.

He was a dud when he went on loan to west ham last season as well.

...would he be so here - and In any case, we have two kids now so why not chance it...

 

[Blue Neon]

Play Alcaraz behind Beto and we will score more goals.

Nah! Play Alcaraz in Beto's position and leave Beto on the bench.

Yes he would. As a club we are crap with developing strikers, let alone already crap strikers who have bombed at numerous clubs

….i think it’s more about us not buying an effective striker as opposed to not developing a striker.

 

[UltraVires]

Clearly a talented player.
Clearly a horrific human.

Not sure if you are giving me the middle finger or the post but i don’t disagree with you

Dave, the kid has lost his head, we need to stay clear of him, not just that but some of the company he keeps are not the best either.

Seems to be a whiff of a deal to be made....

Not at all - the very idea of him being a blue is the response to my middle finger and I suspect the other is too.

…..something seems wrong with Ferguson, I think we need somebody who carries less risk.

The only striker who really fits the way we play is Toney. The fact is that most modern day strikers don't want the ball at chest/head height which is how Moyes wants too play. It's a dilemma no doubt about it.

Rumour that isn't it...

Dave he knocks about with Conor McGregor and all that lot, he is a wrongun imo and I don't want him here personally.
