Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

[NikNak8]

Love Seamus and all he's done for Everton. One of my all time blue legends.
However last night just leaves me baffled as to why he was on the bench?
We had no fullbacks on the pitch yet he sat it out.
If he was injured then why was he on the bench?
Say if myko and Patterson were fit last night and Patterson got injured in the warm up.....surely coleman would then start?
I just don't get it, other than proving how shockingly threadbare we are for a PL side with grand ideas kicking off a new season.
Scandalous and does not justify the ripping off of fans.

Simple answer is that Jake is Moyes' first choice RB

When does this club grow up? Its endemic incompetence every summer

He was bang average

Exactly

Why are you trying to divert the conversation to made up scenarios again is this an acknowledgment that you have no arguments left?

Cos they had no way of knowing who we would sign, they were just moaning cos it’s what they always do - just like saying we will get relegated every year. I understand concerns in July but late may/early June is just moaning

If he did i agree with him But it shouldn't justify a place on the bench if he can't do a job on the pitch.
Which was how it came across last night.

That's what he is now - shouldn't have got a new deal. Possibly can come on for last 10 mins of games but you can't start him as he will ultimately break down.

Need to change the culture. Not an overnight thing.

I get we had alot of players leaving but jesus we had to be proactive instead recruitment is at a snails pace

For a club that has seen seasons go down to the last match it’s so frustrating that we continue to treat the first month as a throw away every season.

20 years of mismanagement can’t be fixed in 1 window.

Our financial income is a pittance compared to the other 5 teams who never been relegated.

Here an example when the RS new shirt came out there was over 2h queues to get it.
We are so far behind not just on the pitch but off it, let’s be perfectly honest we need to replace every players to get a team that can get in the top 4

How are two losers whose CV is relegating Leeds going to change the culture?

Shouldn't be

Well last night's performance was certainly built on the foundations of this and the last several transfer windows and the non addressing of the gaps in the team and squad and that there's always an excuse as to why they haven't been addressed.

If I was Dan Friedkin, I'd be asking some serious questions right now, and including myself as people who need to answer them. We have allowed unacceptable performances throughout the club to be excused and this is, to repeat myself, typified by the club's transfer dealings.

Same club

Really thought we’d hear some news today. Refreshing constantly isn’t good for my mental health
