How many signings can we expect before next Tuesday? I'm hoping for another 3, as our squad needs more bodies!!!
Thu Aug 27, 2026 7:34 pm
You'll know by 11pm on Tuesday.
Can't wait for it all to be over.
Thu Aug 27, 2026 7:38 pm
I think 2 more , im hoping for a fast winger and competition for salech
Thu Aug 27, 2026 7:54 pm
We need a minimum of another 3.
Wintle replacement.
A fast, direct winger.
Striker to compete with Salech.
That should be the mimimum we expect and anything less isn't good enough.
Ideally, I would also like another centre back, a box to box midfielder and another right back so we can loan Kpakio out.
So I want 6, but I know we will be very lucky to get 3 with our clown of an owner.
Thu Aug 27, 2026 8:47 pm
I think this new bloke will play at 6 once all our center backs are back so I'll say a right back, winger and striker minimum . So 3 more I'm guessing but we will probably get 1 knowing above BBM
Thu Aug 27, 2026 10:00 pm
I reckon we'll get two loans.
Thu Aug 27, 2026 10:16 pm
A few more even if they are Loans .
Thu Aug 27, 2026 10:16 pm
A good question distinguishing between expecting and hoping for. Setting my expectations low, with 1. Hoping for 3.
Really interested by Bielik’s interview, because he mentioned twice that he heard of the interest three days before the deal began to move. Whereas for BBM, he mentioned monitoring over a period.
I’m not saying this is a flat rule and I’m sure things can move quickly closer to the deadline, but it peaked my interest because it sounds like for moves to get over the line by Tuesday, the negotiations with players would need to be happening now. Oh to be a fly on the wall in the target meetings!

How many I want: 4
How many I think we'll get: 2
Theres nothing we can do about it though, roll on the end of the window when we can then actually all focus on the football
Fri Aug 28, 2026 8:42 am
I think we'll get 3. One permanent and two on loan
Fri Aug 28, 2026 10:34 am
Two or three, I'm expecting a stellar loan or two; we look like a good loan-receiving club, with a good chance of game time and one of the best Managers in the league to develop young players.
Mon Aug 31, 2026 12:00 am
2 Days to Go ...
Mon Aug 31, 2026 9:55 am
Need 4
Want 3
Get 1
Just my thoughts I would say Im realistic rather than negative based on previous transfer windows
Trott? Outcry if he hadnt have signed
Moylan? Excellent aquisition
Scanlon & Bielik? Only signed due to injury crisis and mountain pressure to add numbers.
If we had no injury crisis I believe we would only have signed Trott and Moylan. I think BBM was offered money for one top signing and Moylan was his choice.
Mon Aug 31, 2026 10:18 am
I think we need 3:
Right back to allow kpakio a loan move to league 1
A striker, someone like Brian Kadja on loan from Villa
A winger,Lewis Koumas on loan from Liverpool please
Mon Aug 31, 2026 10:25 am
Maximum additional players without kicking someone out of the first team is 4. (Not including King or Etete as both have been said to be going out)
If you’re expecting 6, you need to be thinking of who you’re dropping out of the current first team squad.
I’d like 2 more, possibly 3, would be happy with loans
Mon Aug 31, 2026 10:43 am
Need 3 may get 2 but will not be surprised if it is 1
Mon Aug 31, 2026 10:56 am
Think we'll get three now in the next couple of days.

I'm the same as you KBK-13, think we need 3. Although, based on Bielik saying he's been bought in by BBM to play as a defender, I'd swap your RB preference for a No.6 instead. I like Robertson there but we need another to compete with him. I'd say, well why not Chambers, but just don't see BBM ever playing him there so a really good, specialist 6 would be great.
As it's going right down to the wire though (and coz BBM seems to treat Tan's money, or lack of, very preciously), I'm expecting just 1 to 2 - which would make the window overall a bit 'meh'.
Mon Aug 31, 2026 12:00 pm
Zero. We came close but circumstances changed at the end. We only need a specific type of player

Lewis Komuas yes please I doubt it though as he's played for Liverpool against Newcastle and was on the bench again on Saturday

Liverpool are looking to sign another winger. Probably will get one of Sarr or Minteh, so you never know - they may let him out on loan.
Mon Aug 31, 2026 12:30 pm
None today according to a podcast yesterday! But Tuesday hopefully.
Mon Aug 31, 2026 12:31 pm
I think we'll bring one in on loan, would be nice to get three in but can't see it tbh.
Mon Aug 31, 2026 1:16 pm
None
