Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

[GT77]

I haven’t said anything about the season in recent weeks….

How can the window be a fail unless it's in the context of how we do at actual football?

I'm not calling it a success at all, that's what puzzles me.

Barry
Ndiaye
Dibling
Grealish
Dewsbury-Hall
Alcaraz

Exciting

Anyone else feel like there's still gonna be one more surprise name out of the blue?

Usually is with Moyes, thing is, D-Hall sort of came out of the blue and was landed and done quite handy.

Spare a thought for charly Alcaraz - a month ago he was our first signing and taking doucoure's slot. With all this current activity he will be lucky to get on as a sub

IF we can bring in Dibling, Grealish on loan, Luiz on loan and Justin I think we will have had a very good transfer window

Delap on loan too

Zero chance on Luiz if Grealish is in; wage structure would be shattered. But a midfield with Grealish at the 10, KDH at the 8 and Gana/Garner at the 6 would be more than formidable. With Skillman and Dibling on the wings and some productive output from Beto/Barry, you’re looking at the possibly the best attacking side in the last decade IMO

Again based on what we were supposedly after and what we know/believe we need.

This is how I would judge the window up to 6th August.

All things could change, don’t get me wrong…. But we are leaving everything very late, spent far too much time waiting for our supposed main targets and should have attempted to be far more prepared for this season which starts in 9 days time.

I haven’t said you are calling a success…. You are the one quoting me and asking my opinions / thoughts.

Wesley?

Wesley?

Already joined Roma.

 

[Delargeinho]

This has been one of the best transfer windows we’ve had in years.

Well done everyone.

Yeah, add a starting RW and RB + a couple of loans for back up, then on paper it looks pretty well.

But in the end, the truth will be as always on the pitch.

Our Toyota overlords will find a way to get Luiz

Pay him in rubles

Can you imagine what McNeil is thinking, surely a bench player now if the reported targets do come in.

Because some people think it’s just a matter of coming up with a list of players and buying them all in the first week of the window. Anything less than that is a failure/incompetence.
