Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

[Lob]

Just as if you would pay 42 million for anyone with a year left. Just say he's not for sale and save a lot of leg work for anyone interested because nobody is paying that.

Ah well we tried.

Early on in the window and their in no rush to sell. Of course they're going to go big on the price tag, see if anyone bites.

Price will drop later in the window when no one offers what they're asking

I refuse to believe City didn't already have a valuation on McAtee.
I refuse to believe Everton didn't ask either.

Everton: We really like McAtee, can we have him?
City: Y'alright our kiddd. Yeah go for it!
Everton: Great, we'll sign him, oh. Haha, silly of me! Erm...what's the price?
City: Erm....E'yar, what you finking?
Everton: Pfft, good question, erm....£24m? Something like that.
City: He's mega man! How's £42m?

I don't believe a single rumour until it's proven true. It's silly season. Everyone pushing stories for clicks.

In all but 1 of the last 10 windows we have made multiple signings, that was before the new era. It is clear we will make multiple signings this window - quality additions. Making up stories like " we will probably bring back Doucs,young and Harrison" is just weird. You manage to twist every facet of this window in to doom.

OK sure. Let's see on the 1st September then shall we.

I am not sure and not really seen him in many games and only the recent tournament, where tbf he didn't exactly set it on fire.

I just keep hearing from posters is that we wait and are to be patient getting these 'big signings / A-list / whichever'.

If they are a top target you go out and get them. If not or they are not interested, or too much, then move on.

Again if the story is true, then let's hope they move on.

Arsenal have been chasing Gyokeres for 8 months. Mbuemo took UTD 2 months and there are many more examples. Remember how long it took us to sign Lukaku - should we have moved on beforehand?

Moyes meeting Mcatee today.

And McABiscuits - lovely afternoon brew combo

 

[ObiWanIwobi]

Ah well we tried.

Bail. Nonsense number, that. I’d have been delighted to get McAtee at 25m but any more for a player who doesn’t possess the pace we need is bonkers.

The clue is in 'if they are not interested part'. According to rumours, these players, Luiz and McAtee are weighing up their options or basically waiting for better offers. In this case then yes...

It was clear from day 1 that both Gyokeres and Mbuemo wanted to join the respective clubs and those clubs will have known this.

Fair enough if you want to count Harry Tyrer as a senior squad option in order to get the numbers up and feed your delusions I suppose.

Its not about what i want or you want, its about facts.

Fact is harry tyrer is a senior squad member as recognised by the PL.

If you want to cry about only having 16 senior players thats your prerogative but just remember factually you're wrong.

McAtee and Kubo today. That would be nice.

Jumps on FM24 and loads up save

Yeah besides playing every minute, being the captain of the winning team, and being given the man of the match award by uefa in the final.

Why was he talking pizza? Maybe he wants a piece of the action?

That’s pretty pie in the sky if you ask me

Fair enough....

Tbh the rat across the park along with Anderson stood out more to me, from the games I watched.
