Throw in Mings or Barkley and you got yourself a deal Unai son!

Do Villa have any youth centre backs that could come the over way on loan? TJ Carroll any good?

20 Million? Double that or piss off it's that simple.. Unless we had a agreement with Villa 30 million but chuck in Dobbin for 9 million 🤣 Wouldn't surprise me if this was sorted out weeks ago.

Yep agreed in reality we should of said double that or piss off. Doesn't make sense does it ? Would he be the type of player who would become disruptive if we refuse ? Why are we so desperate to cash in ? So now we need Centre back Def Mid And possibly another Striker

Stewart Replacement > Phil Harres At 24 and 1.93m, Harres has the age profile missing from most traditional target men at this price. He scored 10 in 33 2. Bundesliga matches, added three assists and is valued around €2.2m by FotMob. More importantly for this particular brief, his aerial numbers are strong: another statistical source has him winning 2.57 aerial duels per 90, 81st percentile, and 63 aerial contests across the season. Bellis Replacement > Christoph Klarer This is possibly my favourite player across all three searches. Klarer is 26, approximately 1.91m, currently at Birmingham and valued around €6–7m. In last season's Championship he started 43 matches. Most importantly, FotMob places him in the 98th percentile for aerial duels won among centre-backs. � FotMob +1 He also fits your distribution requirement unusually well. His current technical profile includes long-ball passing, while he is comfortable accumulating possession and touches rather than simply heading balls away. Charles Replacement: Jonathan Varane: outstanding fit This is the clearest Shea Charles replacement I found. Varane is 24 and 1.90m, plays defensive midfield for QPR and is physically excellent. In 2025/26 he recorded: 71 tackles, 32 interceptions, 132 recoveries, 155 duels won and 42 aerial duels won. He won 60.8% of all duels and 70% of his aerial duels. FotMob ranks him around the 95th percentile for defensive contributions and 82–84th percentile aerially among midfielders. � FotMob +1 That is a proper screening midfielder.

25 million and Bellis will be gone I reckon Scienza isn't going to stick around either. Was optimistic at the start of this season, I have this unnerving feeling that we are in for a reality check and transitional period. Why am I feeling a bit miffed as others have noted, other teams are not fucking about with transfer business and are making moves. I hope Spors has some continental gems lined up but it's risky, we can't afford to be static and start slow, need to hit ground running!

Says he is a centre back?

Imrân Louza MC Petar Ratkov SC Anel Ahmedhodžić DC Ward Prowse loan Sell: Archer, Downs, Bereton, Larios, Bazunu, Sugawara, Edoize Transfer window completed it mush 😆

Regarding Bereton, Do you actually think it's worth persisting? I mean in theory he should be capable of scoring goals in the Championship, He has done it at other clubs. Does he have some sort of mental block that creates shit performances when he dons a Saints shirt. Also what's going on with Fellows ? Is he inured or are we selling him? Romeo Akachukwu also deserves a chance, He looked good preseason.

Stephens should of been upgraded 3 seasons ago. We need a Wanyama type defensive mid who can play alongside either Downes or Jander, No nonsense tough tackling leader with a bit of physical presence about him. If THB is off again new CB that lad at Feynoord will do. Also if we can do something in the loan market and bring in a Premier league CB who is out of favour and better than Stephens I'd do that. Anyone at Chelsea we could loan ? They have shitloads of players... How many domestic loans can we have? I'd still be tempted to shift Archer, Diaz and Downs and get someone in similar to Larin to rotate.

I'd like to us sign two experienced players who are absolute shit houses. Tough tackling nonsense generals / leaders. You saw it today and last season aswell, Soon as we come up against opposition who play dirty we roll over like a bunch of wet fannies. Thats what I think we have lacked for a few seasons now a couple of old school type destroyers.

Jesus wept! It's the first game of the season no need to piss the mattress just yet. The likes of Leo Scienza didn't sign for us until September, Still early days in the transfer window. I'm sure we will bring in additions and strengthen the spine. As for writing Dobbin or Mubama off after one game or half of football... Are you for f##king real ? Embarrassing

3-0 Saints

I had a inkling it would be £25 million with addons. Jander or Scienza next it's inevitable once the bigger clubs come swooping

If Benficia come in £25 million with addons I reckon THB is gone. Which in all honesty is shit with him potentially going and Charles leaving. Who knows what will happen, maybe towards the end of the window we will go in for a few Premier league players on loan who are surplus to requirements to give us some additional experience. But in all honestly we need: Charles Replacment THB Replacement Stewart Replacement, I'm not convinced the lad on load from Man City is it. We need someone we can directly rotate with Larin who has similar attributes. I wouldn't give a shit about losing the following: Edoize, Baz, Ramsdale, Bereton, Archer, Larios, Sugawara. I'd also like to see: Romeo, Whitmsrsh, given chances And also what about? Sufianu Sillah Dibaga, he had a good debut appearance last season looked bright.
