Spurs allegedly have agreed a new loan for Solomon with Fiorentina believed to have included a buy-option clause worth around £8.7m in the agreement.
Seems good value, but we probably have higher priorities following Rodons injury and the striker cover requirements.
1.) 02 Jan 2026 15:54:10
I think we got Okafor instead of Solomon but 8-9 certainly a bargain imo.
A new CB and a 10 definitely higher priorities.
2.) 02 Jan 2026 16:26:53
Don’t really need another winger given the new system.
3.) 02 Jan 2026 21:37:24
Maybe we don't but Willy G isn't getting much game time (and I wish he was) and if we're not going to play him then he could be sold at a big profit. At £8m Solomon would be a good, cheaper replacement. MS came up with goals at the right time last season.
4.) 04 Jan 2026 20:29:42
Don't forget Gnonto came with a huge sell on clause (40% I believe) so we won't make as much from a sale as you'd hope.
02 Dec 2025 18:07:00
Read with interest there is a short recall clause on Joffy in Jan window, now he’s scoring goals for fun, but the club wanted to sell but couldn’t agree a deal.
Now talk of £8million offer, I loved jiffy sadly I’m not convinced he’s epl level.
But £8million doesn’t get you a lot these days, but we need goals from somewhere.
1.) 03 Dec 2025 00:02:10
Not prem league level. Take the 8 and buy Solomon.
2.) 03 Dec 2025 14:21:13
Should have bought Solomon in the summer Aus, cannot understand for one second why we didn't get the deal done.
Well I can, our recruitment team are Pony.
3.) 03 Dec 2025 15:26:00
He didn't want to move up north. His family are in London.
4.) 03 Dec 2025 17:38:11
But he's on the continent now, that well known part of London.
5.) 05 Dec 2025 02:26:09
Maybe he was being polite and just hates Leeds.
Thinking about it, rothwell said he wouldn't sign permanently at Leeds because his family were in sarrfampton. then he moved to Glasgow.
Hmm.
29 Jun 2025 07:46:19
Linked with Madhi Camara, whose stats are far better than Diaras last season and could be half the price.
Probably clickbait but looks a player either the 8 or 10 position if true.
1.) 29 Jun 2025 11:12:10
Read that one too, plus Viera's not so high opinion od Diarra! At 30mill, we may have dodged a bullet? Dunno personally tbf!
16 Dec 2024 22:24:31
Ben Godfrey linked again probably only because of history with Farkey, think we can do much better and definitely not EPL level for me.
1.) 17 Dec 2024 12:03:41
Indeed Class.
27 Nov 2024 11:00:09
Brighton allegedly willing to let Evan Ferguson go out on a loan in January, now there’s a centre forward who would score goals for fun in the Championship. Horrible feeling he might go to a direct rival though, hope not he’s a cracking player.
1.) 27 Nov 2024 11:18:47
Agreed Class. I’ve also read that he’s likely to stay in the EPL though, with a club in the lower reaches.
2.) 27 Nov 2024 11:41:51
Oh, never read that Brighty but not surprised, but you never know it is Christmas!
3.) 27 Nov 2024 13:37:50
He would probably fair well at his namesake's former club from yesteryear.
4.) 28 Nov 2024 08:41:49
You mean devan utd?
Will Brighton let him go to a epl club? Not sure?
5.) 28 Nov 2024 18:32:14
No Aus. I allude not to the gum chewing hairdryer but Big Dunc.

Really was a game of two halves, but the fact that people are so frustrated, clearly shows the team are more than competitive at this level now.
That’s one loss in nine games now, and I appreciate we have a tough run of fixtures with Arsenal and Citeh included but Wet Sham have Chelsea and Devon over the same period.
Think James Justin epitomises the importance of a fantastic value signing, but more importantly a player that has fitted seamlessly into this clearly very close knit bunch of players with a fantastic team spirit togetherness.
I also totally understand the need for more strikers and more goals, but for THIS season I would be happy for another dominant CB.
I believe we have certainly missed Bijol and as hard as Browncow tried last night he is still a level below the rest of our CB’s and with our expected first eleven we could have nicked a 1-0 and all three points.
But maintaining that team spirit and togetherness with our current form 5 points from our next three games would be an excellent return, as I believe without Bijol we are currently exceeding expectations just now.
1.) 27 Jan 2026 10:00:11
Agree re Justin. Very capable at this level. Impressed. And apart from goal thought browncow was good.
2.) 27 Jan 2026 12:25:00
Excellent post, Class.
18 Jan 2026 11:57:56
Agree with DF, in this was possibly our best win of the season to date.
We completely nullified one of the top form team of the league, without two of our best players in recent weeks in Stach and Bijol.
Thought Gruev was a must sell previously but thought he was excellent yesterday and did more than everything asked of him.
Thought Darlow back resulted in a calmer back four overall.
We now look the side that nobody wants to play and that’s all credit to Daniel, now I would like some extra reinforcements especially at CF and CB but the spirit in this current group looks exceptional so I think they will wait until the near the end of the window.
1.) 18 Jan 2026 13:35:57
Agree with most of that Class, with a couple of caveats / additions.
Defensively, Rodon was his usual assured self, Pasc had one of his better games and was also very composed and commanding, while JJ was a new face in the back 3 and was excellent. I don't believe the presence of Darlow had a jot of owt to do with their collective performances, and had a fairly easy afternoon, but ballsed up big time with that indecisive header which could have cost us.
Regarding Gruev, I think he's another who is an indispensable squad member and has never let us down when called upon. He was equally, if not more impressive vs Liverpool, I think it was?
Like I said, largely agree, but that's my 2pence on those points.
2.) 18 Jan 2026 14:41:24
2pence away Brighty I completely agree with all your comments,
Dropping Peri was a tricky one, people forget how tough it is to come to another league, country, new system but I suppose I was praising Farke’s decisiveness in bringing in Darlow to give Peri a chance to regroup but also send a message.
I think Farke dithered for too long with Ilan but has gone up another gear on his decision making of late.
3.) 18 Jan 2026 17:01:47
Yep, spot on with that Class!
10 Jan 2026 20:02:55
Our experiences of the FA cup have been blunted by the likes of Histon, Crawley Town etc and much as a win is good for momentum and confidence, in reality it’s usually such a changed line up it doesn’t generally make much difference.
Wondering if Farke will spring a complete surprise with giving Messellier a game tomorrow, puts him in the shop window and possibly sends a message to Peri.
Sure it will be Darlow, which will be equally good to see how he’s going.
Really would love to see our next superstar Harry Gray have some decent minutes, just don’t take any risks, no injuries to first team players, as of greater importance we have a very competent Fulham side heading our way.
1.) 10 Jan 2026 20:56:34
I agree. I think Harry G should be given the opportunity. He needs this chance to show how good he is. If it doesn't work out then it isn't the end of the world. He's talented enough to come back, particularly with the support he has from family and the club. It's not about age but about ability.
And he looks as though he has it.
Perri was poor from the beginning with distribution and hasn't got any better. He can accurately throw the ball a long way but he's fairly useless with his feet. Just surprised that the "intensive" coaching hasn't improved him in that area.
2.) 11 Jan 2026 05:11:09
I fail to comprehend how a goalkeeper with such stature is so poor at crosses. Palace game last night. Both keepers coming out through players to catch the ball. We really need to up our have with goalkeepers. Been our let down last two seasons.
07 Jan 2026 22:29:52
Beyond gutted for the lads after that, well played ref couldn’t give that penalty quick enough whilst ignoring the hand ball for the winner.
Think we sat back a little too early but cannot criticise a performance like that just feel so sorry for the players and those amazing travelling supporters.
1.) 07 Jan 2026 22:40:03
Like watching Leeds of old under O Leary sadly wrong result. we played really well.
Perri is shocking tho and another point why take of Stach and bring on Okafor surely it should of been Tanaka.
Up The Whites Down The Pints ???.
2.) 07 Jan 2026 22:43:30
Precisely Class, ball was lower on Barnes arm than when Ampadu got a yellow!
Also shouldn't Thiaw have had a yellow for the penalty handball?
That being said I thought the ref was generally good, we've had a lot lot worse!
3.) 08 Jan 2026 06:20:25
Great game end to end, BA two goals shame we were on the end of loss, lots off positive to take away, we have done very well against the top side, let’s move on and go again we are staying in The Premier League.
{Ed025's Note - amen to that Whitey..
02 Jan 2026 17:20:32
Harvey Elliott worth a bid, nobody seems to want him, he doesn’t want to go abroad, he cannot be loaned again?
He looks brilliant for England, maybe Ed001 can confirm if he’s worth buying?
{Ed001's Note - he can't play for anyone but Villa or Liverpool this season mate. You can be registered for 3 different teams, but only play for 2. Slot made a mess of that by using him for a couple of minutes here and there before the loan.}
1.) 02 Jan 2026 18:33:03
Thanks Ed, is he someone who could break back into the Liverpool team, very strange that both Elliott and Mcattee have gone backwards this season.
{Ed001's Note - I don't think Slot will give him a chance to, he could certainly offer something, though his time has been badly disrupted by injuries.}
2.) 02 Jan 2026 18:50:03
Liverpool have really messed this one up. I would have thought that we'd made an approach to take him on loan in the last window but even if we did then Villa would have been a much more attractive option. I've always liked his attitude and when he comes on late in the game he often seems to add a spark and urgency to Liverpool's play.
3.) 02 Jan 2026 22:24:39
We were interested in buying Elliott in the summer but the asking price put us off. A shame as I really like him as a player. Could have been awkward in the dressing room though first training session.
25 Jan 2026 22:27:38
Hadn’t realised he was injured Canada, the actual point I was trying to make is specifically for this season. Certainly until we’re established £30-40 on JSL seems a massive financial gamble and DCL and Namecheck have shown you don’t need to spend silly money to get a fair return.
Just need to get past this season and PSR regulations, whist not unsettling the team spirit, in my humble opinion.
25 Jan 2026 20:26:02
Personally, for THIS season rather than overpay for JSL I’d rather make an offer for Chris Wood, now well down the order at Florists.
12 Jan 2026 09:41:39
Think Seb, injured again on Sunday, which most likely puts pay to any transfer and reaffirms the need for another CB if the right opportunity presents itself.
Mind you, JJ starting to look a very astute bit of business isn’t he.
11 Jan 2026 10:10:46
Is it April 01st? That would be amazing if true, but I wonder if our hard working disciplined approach would be enticing for the young man.
No doubt he’s an exciting talent though.
09 Jan 2026 08:50:59
I’m amazed if this is true, the lad was injured for the majority of the time after joining, but has done pretty well when given opportunity. Hope this is not the player/ agent pushing this as that’s certainly not side before self behaviours.
And being a squad player in the epl is definitely a higher standard than player for one of the lesser teams in the Bungdalesia.
The Dutch lad looks promising from Berlin but I think we need him as well not instead of.
31 Jan 2026 18:36:52
Tony Hart earned a decent living from drawing Dave?
On a more serious note it wasn’t a shock today, the score and relative league positions are a fair reflection of where we are at this present time.
Wet Spam 2-0 to the good but Chelsea as we know can be very hit and miss, OUR league is about beating those around us wherever possible and nicking the odd point against the top teams if we can.
No disgrace to be outclassed, now outfought would be another matter, but it’s still pretty congested down the bottom, and mathematically a point every game would most likely be enough, but I get where you’re coming from Dave.
The florists game will be defining I’m sure, it’s as Amps said draw a line under it and move on as quickly as possible.
Could be worse, we could be at Aussie! s house for Sunday lunch with hiss Gooner dad.
My ex daughter (for today) is an Arsenal fan living in Edinburgh has been sending me apologies, I think they hurt more ??.
29 Jan 2026 13:09:10
Not that we would have ever paid £50million but I’m genuinely surprised the lad has chosen Palace, who are in free fall just now,
If you take out Glasner and Matteta goals (when he’s gone) and Wharton will likely have many suitors, and they’re really not a good side and will return to the lower half, bottom of the league once more.
Think we should still cancel JSL’s Agent’s season ticket, just for a laugh.
23 Jan 2026 19:57:33
See what you did there Aus! There’s a plaque on the house says 1500 so only just squeezed in.
Our current one (3years) Corkey, circa £180 but quiet, economical to run very good for drying rooms, clothes.
We learnt the hard way the £50 ones aren’t the way to go.
23 Jan 2026 10:54:55
Yes and yes, Corkey but like all things you get what you pay for.
Our house 15th century so a necessary piece of equipment for us.
20 Jan 2026 22:21:59
In fairness he’s had so many injuries, and has had hardly any money to spend this window so far,
Still, bet they finish top three, no cup wins, Prp complaining of player fatigue as they still manage to squeeze in a completely meaningless long haul tour in May, simply to satisfy a wealthy sponsor and flog some shirts.
And all achieved without a single sanction to boot - Good season that!
