Summer Transfer Window 2026

[Saint Matty 76]

We won’t be signing Mubama as 3rd choice, I’m sure part of the proposal to City will be the demonstration of Stewart’s minutes last season.

My guess would be a new attacker who can play wide, or up front to come in if Archer & BBD leave.

Then Downs (if still here) or Oyenkule provide the back-up back-up back-up.

If Archer goes (as well as BBD) my faith in TE and JS will increase because he is ok but just not good enough for us. 

Leo, Larin, Dobbin, Mubama, Azaz, A.N.Other NEW ST, is a fresh looking bunch of forwards and quite exciting (potentially/possibly!!). 

 

Let's hope the new names in the second part of your post don't get consigned to the first part..

Now that Charles is off to Fulham, would people welcome Prowsey back? 

I think he'd be more than adequate.

Oops, yeah you're right - Arthur Dennis is a kid I went to primary school with 20 years ago! 

Is Anthony Dennis any good? Seems like has something about him if the top Turkish teams are sniffing around.

So far the multi club model is all one way.

Based on what? He’s way past his best, he’s the last thing we need imo

I see [Anthony] Dennis' reported move to Coventry has fallen through. Would make a decent Shea replacement and you'd think a deal wouldn't be hard to do with Goztepe. It'd be nice to get some benefit from this multi club nonsense. 

Not a bad shout. I'm one who thinks we don't really need a Shea replacement (Bragg is his replacement, leaving ~1,400 minutes for O'Brien-Whitmarsh, Williams, maybe Akachukwu and Sesay, and whoever else). But the cheaper option of a sweetheart deal from the sister club for Dennis to compete with Bragg for the third spot is interesting.

Dennis is in the last year of his contract, so that would need ironing out.

He'd definitely be more than adequate as Bragg's backup. Bit expensive for that role though, and there's no role ahead of Bragg available (unless we want to block the pathway for him and all the rest of our youth midfielders for some reason).

No, we need someone who can carry the ball and chip in with some goals.

Haven't really seen anything of him since he moved to West Ham so hard to say.  Chances are he'd probably be fine. 
Only thing I would say is that if you had four midfielders of Downes, Bragg, Jander and JWP then the bulk of that lot seems to prefer more deep lying roles.  Jander likes to get forward and Downes does it pretty well at times but for the sake of balance, I think I'd prefer someone a bit more adventurous.  We were linked with Josh Mulligan earlier in the window and I wonder whether that's something we might try.  Fair bit of interest in him with Genoa the latest club to be linked so might not be feasible.

Alan Ball was well past his best when he joined us but helped the team massively to get to Div 1 in 1978

That said I do not think we need JWP but we need a decent striker not a young kid from Man City
