Summer Transfer Window 2026

[TheRam]

Think Flemming would be a decent-ish addition as a squad player near the end of the window.

Scored 12 last season for a crap Burnley side.

He's 28 though so would have to be a cheap pick up.

Must have been who Moyes was watching the other day.

Didn’t know he was 28 ffs.

Still, looked really good last season.

That goal against wolves was beautiful

[Toddacelli]

Don’t mind Flemming on the cheap.
He looks like a gobshite though. As long as that’s his on-pitch persona against opponents, it’s fine. If that’s just his personality - swerve.

[Sir Stealth]

Burnley value him at around 20mil I think

If we spend that on this guy and don’t bring in a right back I’m gonna level with you - I won’t be best pleased

In terms of the squad, it’s not as if we are going to have a ton of games next year. We don’t have a lot of international players, we aren’t in Europe, and even if by some miracle we have two long domestic cup runs, that shouldn’t equate to more than 50 ish games, which is pretty standard.

So surely from here (apart from RB) it is one in one out?

Even then, I think once we have a RB, Patterson will be gone and we will be happy with JOB and Rohl as RB backups for this season.

I am actually quite happy with our squad given where our finances are. Clearly every position can be upgraded but that’s not our reality. Just praying that RB gets sorted.

If we get a really decent rb in I would also be happy with our squad, if we had a different manager.

That’s where I’m at.

An Iraola type. As in someone who wouldn’t play Mykolenko every game, or play a giant cb at right-back.

But maybe we will never go down that route.

It certainly feels like it.

I know some will say we tried it with Martinez and Silva, but there was little high energy with their styles.

Maybe Silva’s sides would have been without him insisting on always playing Sigurdsson, but there we are.

The new PL season is about to start next week and although there’s been quite a bit of activity, I’m not confident that the squad is overall stronger than last season.

Hopefully some of the younger players brought in last season get more playing time, depends of course on cautious Moyes.

If we could bring in just one more player in for the defence, preferably fullback then I suppose that would have to do.

It could also be that our very restricted focus on looking from the British leagues and the Spanish, Italian, French and German leagues only means we are missing out on other quality more cost effective options.

If it helps, his birthday was a couple of weeks ago so generously speaking he’s borderline 27/28.

Probably could get a good few years out of him I’d imagine.

That said, not sure why we’re looking at this position.

“I don’t think we are in a bad position on that (Right Back). The players we thought we had the option of are still available for us, I don’t think they will be there for Crystal Palace which was the objective” - CEO Angus Kinnear

I don’t understand what this means?

[Brownie]

I don’t understand what this means?

Nor do I - sounds like it’s saying that we have our targets lined up but they won’t be in for the Palace game but I’m not sure

I don’t understand what this means?

I’m guessing the last part he was saying in a mangled way the objective was for them to have a RB in before the Palace game.

“The players we thought we had the option of” is confusing but maybe means the players we’re actually interested and we had a realistic chance of getting in are still available?

[Risky]

So the players that we're interested in are still available, but we're not signing them yet? Sound.
