Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

[ToffeeTim]

We will sign Dibling.

If its true that they are discussing a difference in price of about 3m, then I think you're right. That's not enough to stop a deal if you really want the player.

mcatee seems like a 10. I dont think dibling nor kdh fit that position. we still need a 10, RW, and RB. not saying we get mcatee but i dont think dibling nor kdh rule him out.

 

[Pabbers]

He is but he is very forward minded if you look at his numbers, don't expect him to sit on the halfway line defending and breaking up play as that just isn't his game (a quick look at his defensive numbers will tell you its not a strong point) Dyche took the good from Garners game by making him into a defensive midfielder, lets not do it again and tbh I don't expect it from Moyes as he is generally more tactically aware

He is a classic 8, quality box to box midfielder….can come from deep.

He is just not a 10.

So i expect to to still go for a 10…still think Grealish loan deal could happen

Relying on Moyes to integrate the new players as soon as is reasonable. Our aim is only mid table anyway.

 

[Hellerad]

But imagine if we did get Luiz. He’d slot next to Gana and KDH would play the sort of 10 that Moyes likes. Capable in attack and defense. Pressure from the front, etc.

 

[Victus]

Yeah I think we'll get him after reading that.

 

[Pabbers]

Suppose its easier to integrate English lads who have played on the league before too

Neville was the summer after. Rooney funded the club’s debts and left Moyes with £2m-ish to spend on Bent and Cahill in 2004

Bent and Cahill were signed earlier. Rooney left on transfer deadline day. We bought in James Beattie and Arteta in January. Graveson went to Real Madrid.

Maybe Ndiaye will end up there with us going after Grealish/Fofana although the way Ndiaye has been playing on the left I'd prefer to keep him there.

 

[Nymzee]

He’s on a radar according to Mr Bobble hat and his pal Benji

I’m okay not listening to them

 

[Hellerad]

For the record, I much prefer this positional debate over beer bonging bleach in a field of yellow bed sheets.

 

[GT77]

Juv want €40m for Luiz. Guess we gave up hence KDH.

They're completely different players.

 

[HappyJack]

Guardian saying weve gone all in on 40 for Dibble….

I feel like he's a 10 in the way Doucoure is a 10. Think he'll perform very well there in the way Moyes likes to use that position.

 

[TyphooToffee]

I seem to be the only one who would be thrilled with both KDH and Dibling.

No, you're the only one
