Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

[MACCA75]

If we managed to bring in this lad, or Shea Charles or Lennon Miller I'd be excited.

Or two of three. Be building something special especially if Harrison Armstrong develops this season.

Can see Moyes wanting Miller.

Football insider now linking us for Wesley (to keep not to loan).

That would be phenomenal.

Expect a Yellow card in the first 15 minutes of games with Hackney. Not great defensively and is guilty of mistiming tackles or stupid bookable things like short tugs when it's not necessary.

Goes missing in a lot of games, but then can do something excellent. Not prem quality yet for me, but better on the ball than most of our midfield. Needs to improve but may well do so with better players alongside.

I don't think Football insider have got the memo.

Nothing wrong with a short tug every now and again
Keeps the pipes clear

Nearly £50m spent on two young and promising lads, and people will still moan. This is the right way to do things, the board is now in place and now the players need replacing.

I'll leave that as it is

Alcaraz and Barry? £40mil no?

Be interesting to see how many of these rock up. At least one or two I reckon.

indeed it is not my wish list, but more based on rumours / guesses. I will track how many will be right

Hackney linked from boro. Looks like teams linked are london teams, abroad or us. Hopefully he wants to stay up north

If this was the 90's whoever signs him would have the newspaper reveal of him in a hackney taxi all smiles, flat cap on bonce, meter with digits of his fee or the date

Reckon this lad could really thrive playing alongside Gueye. The Enforcer meets The Creator

Would have to employ a high press then because those two would leave massive gaps in the midfield.

….these links are so disgusting.

If any of them ever score a last minute winner for Everton I’m not going to celebrate.

This is very interesting. Comparison with Wharton at Palace who is very highly rated. Going off that they look different kind of players so not entirely sure why they’re being compared. But Hackney looks to lack in the defensive areas of the game so would need a defensive midfielder next to him. He excels at the forward parts of a midfielder though, progressive carries and passes in particular. Boro fans rave about him, always a good sign.

He’s more like Declan Rice

They have but it's early days. Not every multi club model has to follow the same methods.

Agreed

I'm pretty happy with how it looks though, both separate entity's, i wouldn't want either club using the other as a feeder or a player farm though.

Both ourselves and Roma are massive institutions (Roma are probably the better known worldwide to ourselves, being the main team from the capital, but we probably have a bigger opportunity for profit as we are a PL club)
