Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

[Zatara]

If you’d said after Newcastle we’d extend Branthwaite on a new deal and then sign:

Grealish, Dewsbury Hall, Thierno Barry, Alcaraz, Aznou, Travers

All before the first game of the season.

Most of us would have taken that surely.

Absolutely not.

….i’d prefer Fofana to Grealish but he’s another who looks to prefer playing on the left so doubt it’ll be him instead of Dibling.

I thought Fofana plays on the right?

Either way the chances will be slim given his champions league desire.

Fofana plays either wing.

All good - but that right wing..

....and RB!

Dibling deal looks like a non starter.

Who do we think we’ll move on to? Fellows? Fofana round 2?

Try again for Kubo ? Never saw him play but I bet he's boss and a proper right winger boot....

Monday, not even Midday and @davek is having a nightmare.

Recruitment Team, please secure an RB and RW before Friday now then fill up our loan allowance before this transfer window shuts. Looking forward to the post transfer window analysis. Some members have been very amusing with their input.

Yes good but the 2 glaring weaknesses in the team RB and RW have still not been addressed.

I hope that the Dibling alternative isn't Hutchinson. Don't really rate him that highly.

 

[Victus]

I wanted Hutchinson before he went to Ipswich, wouldn't be too upset if we got him tbh, although would prefer Dibling.

Someone should tell Kubo that we’ve stacked our women’s team with Japanese ladies….

What would be deemed a "success" for you?

If he got 10 goal contributions?
If we finished top 10?
If he played over 25 games?

We're going to win the fugging lot

 

[mahermi1]

We're going to focus on the right wing, people are just so ANXIOUS on this forum ,focus on one aspect at a time

Fixed that for you my friend, hope you don't mind.

That's probably the better term, thank you, I'm going to delete the original post because it's a little too antagonistic, haha it's only 6:30 my time so woke up a little canterkrous

I know this has been spoken about all summer but until very recently I never believed this could happen and to be honest I was against signing him when it was first mentioned.

However, we must assume the manager wants him,
He will certainly raise the profile of the club which is a big positive.
As a player when at his best he is by some distance our best footballer and will hopefully raise the bar for the others. He is after all a player that cost 100m.
Even if it doesn't work out it would appear it will be a one season costly mistake.


But, if it is a success.....

Surprised city letting savinho and grealish go
