Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

[Ruairi77]

I reckon a loan for Ferguson with an option for something like 20m would be good business.
Seen a good bit of him (right back to 14 playing for Bohs). Took an interest as he grew up a few miles from where I did.
Get him away from the south coast/london and see what Moyes (and Coleman) could do with him,.
There's a player there somewhere!

Wonder would we have an interest in Evan Ferguson….

If the club don't get a first choice striker in by the time the season starts, taking a punt on Ferguson on loan and evaluate in January might not be too bad as a rotation/ backup to Beto

I could see us looking at Tammy Abraham.

A better player than most give him credit & he’s a great target man.

Not stupidly expensive & 27 … so a few years in him.

Let’s throw a cheeky bid for Bowen

No resale value at the end of his contract and high wages.

It's like people don't remember the Steve Walsh / Moshiri years at all.

Rayan Cherki
Yaser Asprilla
Assane Diao
Tyler Dibling
Matias Soule
Wilfried Gnonto

Dibling has a huge price set doesn’t he

They will be talking in the 80’s for Bowen, their number 1 player, what exactly would cheeky be?

Seriously?

Media quotes at £100mil and now £55mil.

I suspect the reality would be very different.

I see the Irish lads on here are going all in on Ferguson. 6 goals in two seasons and a reputation for an, erm, recreational social life. Brighton don't usually sell their young lads cheap either. At least he isn't interested in fashion, eh lads?

Probably end up with Jim Bowen.

Delap hadn’t done any of that two years ago at 20 mate- the age Ferguson is now, Ferguson did whatever he did in the PL as a teenager.

You can report anything really, paper won’t refuse ink, you have to analyse facts, he was loaned out to WHU, the loan didn’t go great. So that creates a dilemma for Brighton. Think they’d loan him out with an obligation - maybe something like we did with Broja this year,

Development Project - I thought the whole idea was to sign young players under 24 and develop them.

Yeah we want young players but they still need to be able to do the business. In my view there’s been very little to warrant him being brought in as a first choice striker.

Broja was also overrated and came in and did pretty much what I expected and he scored 6 goals as a teenager too.

The facts I’m analysing are that he has just had a really poor season and couldn’t get into West Ham’s team. The season prior to that he scored 6 goals across a total of 4 games and the season prior a total of 6 across 5 games.

So in the last 3 seasons where there has been the opportunity to play in 114 PL games, he has scored in a total of 10 games.

He isn’t the answer.

This would be totally unacceptable. We have been dicking about without a decent centre forward for years, a priority and absolutely no excuse for sorting it this summer.

 

[Noisy noise annoys]

We need an inform, ready to go striker. A starter ahead of who we have. Ferguson, on current merit is behind all of our current forwards
