Winter '25/26 Transfer Rumours Thread

[stubbo-admin]

Well seems like with all these international breaks, and us languishing, the rumours of ins and outs are rife.

Chuck anything 'worthy' of discussion on this thread...

Valentin 'Taty' Castellanos - €26m + €4m (Lazio) | Forward
Adama Traore - £2m + £1m if stay up (Fulham) | Forward
Axel Disasi - Loan (Chelsea) | Centre Back
Keiber Lamadrid - £150k + £1m option | Attacking Mid

Outgoings:

Nicolas Füllkrug - 6 months loan (AC Milan)
Luis Guilherme - £17m + Sell On % (Sporting Lisbon)

[Massive Attack]

In his opening 3 games for Villa in only 7 League appearances for them in total before Emery finally saw the light, they conceded 7 goals in a decent Villa side. Still, at least he'll fit in nicely with our mob.

This Axel Disasti sounds like another Kalvin Phillips fuck up.  Gets a big fat 6 year Prem contract and set up for life and switches off.   The very last thing we need in our predicament is a mardy frog who probably won’t give a shit about WHU.  
If there’s one thing that Sullivan never fails to do it’s making a bad situation a whole lot fucking worse.  The senile old git has a real talent for it.

My pal that follows Villa said he was decent for them. Committed, no nonsense and reliable.

Don't be surprised if within a month it's Disasi + one at the back. It's not long ago Todibo was a waste of money cսnt, and that Mavro was the worst CB ever to grace a West Ham shirt.

Hope he goes well for us, and then decides he wants to stay for the peak years of his career after helping us stay up.

Just seen Wolves have got in Angel Gomes on loan. Thought he was a tidy player not long ago and we were in for him?

So that's fucking it this window trying to avoid the drop??

It's either utter incompetence or sabotage to get relegated. No other explanation for totally gutting out the entire Squad only to fill it with just 2 inexperienced Premier League players who cannot score and 2 players who rarely play including 1 who isn't even a Footballer and another who has tried his level best to play for us. Lamadrid to all intents and purposes is apparently for next year (if ever) and not to be relied upon this season. 

And some think Sullivan doesn't want relegation having done all that pathetic business, got in serious dough whilst continuing to back a hopeless case of a manager who regularly self-sabotages games himself.

Where's the other (at least) £10M after all that profit, Sullivan?

 

7 of those 9 rarely played and 1 refused to play. It’s no loss. 

They rarely played because Nuno chose to ignore them. They shouldn't have all been discarded. The one thing we have had loads of luck with this season for a change is avoiding injuries, so we are now taking that for granted thinking that what we have now will be enough.

We already have our best Centre Half suspended for at least 3 matches, we suddenly get a few injuries then we will look very light within the Squad to cope, regardless if they are good or not. Should injuries hit we will need bodies to cover so we are relying a lot on luck on that front as well.

We should have brought in more players than this having got rid of so many. Centre Half is of serious concern and Disasi won't be enough, especially now Todibo is suspended for a while.

[Takashi Miike]

I don’t think I’ve ever cared less about a signing.

Fair enough mate, but he will be our 2nd best CB.

 

 

a cսnt who hasn't played for nearly a year. let's throw a disasi party

[goose]

Dawson would have been our 2nd best CB.
His wife probably would be as well.

[kinglewy]

I would have preferred Casey to play not some prick who has turned us down before. 

[honky cat]

I half expected Kalvin Phillips to rerun before. the blades nipped in

 

 

 

 

Not that i care too much, but what the fuck has happened to him. Surely someone can take him on and sort him out, get him fit and get his mind right. He clearly has talent, what a waste. Honestly he could come and stay at my house for two months, run up and down the mountain every day.

[Iron Duke]

It has been obvious that we needed a centre back, and to leave it this late is shocking. It doesn’t help being in the position we are. I suspect that Charlie Cresswell didn’t fancy relegation and playing in the Championship next season. I reckon we’ll go back in for Hardwood-Bellend in the summer.

[onsideman]

Can't believe people still think they can get anything out of Phillips. Talk about a one hit wonder.
Pep really got stung on that one but he don't care. 

Was gutted we got old fatty Phillips and he performed as expected. The hype at the time around signing him (a City Superstar!) was laughable. Was always a flash in the pan at Leeds. Sheffield United is about his level. 

Seem to remember those analytics nerds doing a piece on how he was perfect for us and would flourish. Lol

[Jasnik]

HE is going to be a Disasiter.

Romano has given us the ‘here we go’ for Disasi.

Welcome Axel, son.

[Jaan Kenbrovin]

To be honest this window has been a disaster and the squad is now even thinner on quality  We deserve to go down.

[Jaan Kenbrovin]

Disasi deal completed. Got to be the most reluctant player to ever join us.

[honky cat]

This disasi, hes gonna be shit isn't he?  I know, you know, everybody knows it . . .

​Surely there is an ambitious half decent defender somewhere in the world who wants to come here for a few months, put themselves in the shop window. Its unbelievable really..

[Jasnik]

If Dawson is available & his wife  : agreed think his wife could do a job. 

[Massive Attack]

If Dawson is available & his wife lets him come to that there Let n London for a few months I’d bring him in
We need leaders and characters not disinterested cunts coming on holiday 

A centre half , maybe Charlie Cresswell, should have been sorted week 1 of January
Same old dithering incompetence that will relegate us

We are that desperate I'd definitely sanction it if only so he could batter the useless cunts (including the manager) around the Dressing Room to try to drum some sense into them. Was one of the few that was so happy we signed him, not so much because of his Watford stint but his overall body of work. Just loved his no nonsense defending and his knack to get the occasional goal. Was so good in both boxes and a leader amongst men we now so desperately need.
