Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

[evertony]

That Gordon's lad?

No, Fred’s.


Which is another hint in itself.

 

[Seathestars]

dunno we’re im sitting then lol

if that’s the west stand i look for those steps!

It is, the west stand is nearest to the mersey

 

[FinchFarmBlue]

The waxing or the bun?

Think Brentford and Fofest could be in the mix next year.

Said the other day I thought Brentfurd were spent in 23/24 but came back stronger last year. Without Frank they could be vulnerable I agree.

What is it about Forest do you think ?

Losing Elanga I imagine will affect them. Not much noise regarding Gibbs White. though, who If he left too would be them throwing in the towel a bit. He's at a good club. But like James Maddison before him, the kind of player that needs to make at least one more step up.maybe? .Maddison due to injuries and Spurs issues hasn't kicked on totally but has a Cup success now at least,so still probably a fair comparison he's had a little more success by moving on.

Any one mind if I go all Zatlike for a minute
If we sign ACM. McAtee
RW. Subo
RB. Wesley
Loans for cover at RB. LB. DM LW RW
That’ll be a really good window
Not gonna happen mind you but I need sweet dreams tonight

 

[Seathestars]

Please people, no puns about this Hayden Hackney, otherwise I'll call you a Cab.

 

[FinchFarmBlue]

Aren't we linked with the 31 year old Argentinian national LB ?

Yes been a few articles suggesting we have an active interest, not all from aggegator sites either.

Is active interest a new stage of transfer for us to add btw?

 

[Rich1878]

Yep. Watched him a lot over the years and he's always caught the eye. Let's put it this way, Moyes is supposedly a big fan of Dan Neil and, from the times I have watched both, I think Hackney is much, much the better player.

Might take time to step up to the PL, who knows, but he's a good player and only about 22.

Cheers buddy

 

[FinchFarmBlue]

Nailed on for Sunderland
He’s from that neck of the woods isn’t he ??

Funnily enough played for them before our lovable neighbours too

Can we call him Tootles the Taxi though? That's a classic

 

[RomanReigns]

hopefully mcatee is the next target we secure

I know nothing of this Hackney, but ive asked a mate who supports Boro, and he says he's 'ok' his work rate is good, but not too sure if prem level yet.

Anyone else watch him regularly?

Not watched him regularly been seen him a few times in the champ last season.

Think he’s a decent player who might make it to the PL, but nowt really special in my eyes. You never know of course, but I’d be utterly surprised if he established himself in a top half PL side in the future.

A few things at Forest mate. The situation is volition there with the owner, it will be fine if the standard is maintained but if there is difficulty, he will flip 100%.

They were very well coached last year, but they have one trick and teams worked that trick out in the last 3rd of the season.

I feel like a lot of their players played above their mean last season, it’s interesting none have had any interest beyond Elanga. They also got very lucky with injuries.

I feel with a European campaign they could be stretched as well with second season syndrome.

The two seasons before without a wildly different squad they were almost relegated.

 

[TyphooToffee]

The internal data that highlighted Barry as a top prospect will have been all over this lad too I expect.

Get Hackney a cab for Finch Farm asap.

 

[ganistuk]

Would love us to get this lad. Can play , and destroy . Be like Gravesen and Carsley in there again

Same here. I read a while ago that he is statistically one of the very best in his position in the top five European leagues. Not sure it would work with both him and Gana as a pairing though - might lack the creativity we need in the middle.

 

[FinchFarmBlue]

hopefully mcatee is the next target we secure

I know we shouldn't hype the younger players. But I am going to anyway

Different positions but I would equate such a signing on a par with the significance of getting Baines who took his side of the pitch to the next level for us , if it came off of course. He will flourush in a side where he is not just expected to feature as a cameo.
