The January 2026 Transfer Window Thread

[Swanjaxs]

A Newport fan I met over Xmas said they hate him, says he’s utter dogshit, so that surprises me.

Newport are utter dogshit in fairness.

Doesn’t he have more goal contributions per minute than any other Swans player this season?

well he has 4 goal contributions in 613 minutes over 18 games.

You can read that how you want.

I read that as not good enough for a 7m striker.

It’s revisionism. When. gyokores did play, he was embarrassing garbage. If he’d been picked there would have been an outcry.

He's had a purple patch in the Portuguese league and that's about it. I honestly can't remember him from his time with us which probably says a lot.

Really enjoyed watching our 2 game investment in Santos.

He's got his own thread if you want to pick up where the other fella left off from yesterday.

Shame about the injury he picked up, you might have seen a different player.

It's a website which is great for stats, when it comes to transfer fees it's a little less reliable, they base their information on opinion rather than concrete facts.

Brendan Rodgers rates Idah and that will do for me.

Well if Brendan rates Idah, maybe he will put in a cheeky bid to sign him for Al Qadsiah and do us all a favour.

Who knows, he obviously rates him and I'll take his word over some bloke posting on a football forum

Looks as if the deal is agreed subject to personal terms and the medical .

Let's hope Casey stays .

Can't see it tbh when rumors come out like that it usually signals the end.

 

[Menston4128]

Brendan Rodgers stated several times he wanted to keep Idah, it was a dysfunctional board that decided to sell him.

Clearly not that dysfunctional

Certainly wouldn’t be reading it as “games” as some of those games he’s been on the pitch for just a few minutes, as always you look at the time on the pitch.

Our CF is a position where we can only select one due to the formation we play, and we already have what is likely to be a £10m striker there. Idah will be next in line and as I said to the other poster, zero chance we paid £7m.

Don't knock it Smurph! One of our own is now head of recruitment at a championship club advising the club to spend millions on players

He may or may not rate him and Brenden may or may not have more football knowledge than myself.

Idah ultimately may or may not be a success at Swansea.

However one thing is for certain, that some blokes postinh on a football forum can and do have different opinions, mine is that so far Idah has failed to deliver in a Swansea shirt.

Can't argue with that

All about opinions.
