Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

That's 2 agents in a year for Dom...he's having a mare.

Saw a rumour he was asking for £140k p/w+, yet he’s sacking his agents. Not sure he’s identifying the real issue here.

Yeah, it’s like trying to sell your house for 3 times the value and blaming your Estate Agents when it doesn’t go.

He's living in Cloud Cuckoo land.

2 more links today. 1 new and one a resurection.

Luis Fiorentina and Morten Hjulmand

Two DMs. Interesting.

If we fail to get a right winger (and I really hope we don't fail) this is how we should probably line up v Leeds. Don't want to disrupt Gueye and Garner and think KDH can do a job in the 10. Jack and Illy causing havoc on the wings

Unfortunately the lad seems to live on a different planet in terms of his expectations and actual reality.

It speaks volumes that no one has signed him. He will be left hoping a club comes in for him as a last resort when their other targets fail to materialise.

Expect him to sign for someone come TDD.

As he’s a free agent , would not be surprised if he waits until the window closes. Clubs who are desperate and failed to land their real targets may then give him inflated wages just to boost their squad.

Fatawu and Fofana please.

Mate, that’d be amazing

It would be ON A PLATE for Beto, if he couldn’t score there then..

DCL always seemed a decent lad but something's deffo gone awry along the way as he's clearly more arsed how much he's earning than actually playing, which is mental as he's hardly a pauper.

Trying to be kind there, maybe he's just a thick greedy get

That's one of the interesting aspects of this rebuild is, should we get a RW or two on top of KDH, Grealish and N'Diaye who was already here. It's a hell of a lot of creativity sat behind the strikers.

It does to some extent put pressure on them to return decent numbers this season as they shouldn't be short of service.

Especially Beto as he's the senior established 'PL ready' striker

3rd or 4th choice at Manure is his best offer so far. He will end up in the championship if he wants to be first choice at this rate. Bless him.

Be surprised if Grealish started against Leeds. He hasn't had any minutes in pre-season, has he?

Tactically it's spot on based on what we have but I don't see Grealish starting he may have been smashing the gym in Ibiza but he hasn't played a game since last season.

Think I'd prefer pure pace now in the side rather than a Dibling. Think Grealish and Ndiaye and Alcarez to a certain degree are quite similar.

Having pace out wide will be a huge weapon even if its from the bench.

 

[Hitchy]

I can see it happening (probably wishful thinking). Play the first 60 minutes or so then come off for Alcaraz or McNeil
