Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

Buy backs aren't great at all. With a loan, you know what you're getting. With a buy back clause the club holding that right can literally just decide at any moment to come and take him back. No prior warning, no negotiating, 10 minutes before deadline if they so wish, assuming the player in question will agree of course.
May be wrong but I thought there was usually a window within the transfer window during which they could exercise the buy back clause to stop this sort of thing happening.
 

Not the sort of character Moyes would approve of at all. Pretty sure he kicked off with Emery over playing time.
He would be our 1st choice and play whenever he is available so no need to worry about playing time...

This is a confusing one and someone I would love us to take a punt on.

Although really not sure what has happened over the last 6-12 months for this kid and you could only put down to maybe attitude issues.

But he won't be going to Turkey on anywhere near the money he is on in Saudi..

Surely we can get him back to the Prem and give him 100k per week. He could finally be the type to getting somewhere close to 20+ goals a season.
 

Thank you for your service! 🫡

Agreed. But Moyes is closer to Dyche than any of the other managers in the league.

Don't remember that Dyche for a long time had a good standing in here. There was good spells with a lot to like.

Guardiola - ‘play your football all over the pitch’
Moyes - ‘play your football in the final third of the pitch’
Dyche - ‘football?’
 

Glad majority of these are out of contract tbh...... rating for each of them:

Abdoulaye Doucouré 7/10 - Think he has been worth the money over the years with some important goals. Very frustrating at times.
Idrissa Gueye 9/10 - Please sign
Jack Harrison 4/10 - Below average kind player. Puts a shift in though.
Asmir Begovic N/A - Did he ever play any minutes for us?
Ashley Young 4/10 - never liked the guy.... a few decent games, but generally too old and always heart in mouth times when he would come on to see the game out
Jasper Lindstrom 3/10 - didn't really get going
Orel Mangala 3/10 - same as Lindstrom
Michael Keane 6/10 - Been a good servant for the club and always remember that Spurs equaliser.
Armando Broja 1/10 - pointless signing in the end
Joao Virginia 5/10 - don't know why... never put a foot wrong when he played, but about time he moved on tbf
Neal Maupay 0.5/10 - only get's the half mark as not giving a 0. RAT
Mason Holgate 3/10 - some promising moments early on in his Everton career, but pretty poop if we are honest and will sit well in the championship or league 1
Dominic Calvert Lewin 6/10 - given just above average, with 1 great season and some important goals. Thanks for the Palace and RS goals! But about time he moves on too and was never going to be the replacement for Lukaku we so desperately need.

Avg rating 4.3/10

All in all, good to have this clearout, but providing we can go and replace them with better options (min 5-6/10).
