Others to go as far as I am concerned: Karlsson - return to sender far too selfish a player and only plays for Jesper Karlsson, send him back. Milanovic - get rid just not good enough Yengi - see milanovic Armstrong - release him been a big let down Jensen - see Milanovic and Yengi Nilsen - see Milanovic, Yengi and Jensen Gyamfi - jury still out but would not lose any sleep if he went Lazetic - see Gyamfi So there we have it, the above would be a good start. And even if the manager is tasked with replacing body for body, Any manager with a half a brain can surely find and sign upgrades on that lot Edited January 8 by Blow.Up.Sheep Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/10722-january-2026-transfer-window/page/12/#findComment-275406

The difficulty for us and most other clubs of our size, is finding the "upgrades". There isn't a place you can go to sign ready made players to improve a team. Only if you have money to spend. I can mind you and others wanting rid of Pape Gueye and Shayden and Jimmy came into the club and got a tune out of them and we sold both for more than we paid. Hopefully, whoever is next for the poisoned chalice, can do the same with some of the names above, although some are far from anything like bad.

Panda Posted January 8 Report Share Posted January 8 1 hour ago, Blow.Up.Sheep said: Armstrong - release him been a big let down Disagree, think he's actually played very well in spells, but has been woefully mismanaged. He's been over played (compare his minutes to Graeme Shinnie), he's been constantly shuttled into different positions, and has had little to no chance to development any sort of partnership with anyone. 7 Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/10722-january-2026-transfer-window/page/12/#findComment-275411

I will admit to wanting shot of of big Pape (that was an error) but for me I was always quite confident that Shady Mo was a player, i don't remember wanting to get rid of him. Now I do remember wanting rid of Cosgrove and I stand by that Hope you are well min Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/10722-january-2026-transfer-window/page/12/#findComment-275414

wee toon red Posted January 8 Report Share Posted January 8 P&J saying that Yengi will be away in Jan, most likely back to English league one on loan unless an Asian club stumps up for his wages on a permanent deal. milanovic also keen on going out on loan, whereas Clarkson might stay now because he did well under Leven last time around. 1 Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/10722-january-2026-transfer-window/page/12/#findComment-275450

That wouldn't be a bad outcome. There is a player in Milanovic, but coming into a team that was all over the shop hasn't helped. Some stability for him and confidence will do the world of good. 1 Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/10722-january-2026-transfer-window/page/12/#findComment-275452
Don Julio Posted January 9 Report Share Posted January 9 I very definitely wouldn’t get rid of Armstrong. He’s been inconsistent but his quality shines through. He’s also 5th in the SPFL for chances created, which in a team that has a major problem creating chances is key. 2 Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/10722-january-2026-transfer-window/page/12/#findComment-275469

Rangers prepared to loan him out, but could we coax them, and him, with a permanent transfer bid? They haven't actually paid Dundee for him yet, and he's not really playing under Danny Rohl. No straight up loans from the arse cheeks or anyone else up here. It’s embarrassing being used as a feeder club development ground for those fuckers. We’re better than that. Loan with agreed fee option to buy (our call on the option) like McCrorie, or a permanent move, worth considering… Edited January 9 by The.Moog 2 Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/10722-january-2026-transfer-window/page/12/#findComment-275485

In theory, by the time we got the ball to the forwards, they wouldn't have been able to miss. In reality, we took so long that we lost possession or had lost all confidence in the ability to shoot, or decide whether shooting was worthwhile at all. Nisbet's chance against the Hun was a serious case of trying to do too much, and ending up doing nothing. However, it was noticeable the other night that Leven probably isn't interested in high quality chances, and was keen to go direct and see what falls. *Mair modern pish. 1 Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/10722-january-2026-transfer-window/page/12/#findComment-275524
