Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

it might be time for us to panic buy some free players to fill out the squad until we can get the big money players in that we think are the quality we need.

Current free agents include:

tomiyasu - Right back - injured until christmas - could maybe get him on a cheap deal heavily appearance based incentives

Kurt Zouma - knows the club and Moyes - could be needed if Branthwaite breaks down or Tarky has a recurrence of his injury

Brownhill - decent body for CM position without costing a fortune

Davide Calabria - Italy international right back - good backup to O brien or will allow him to move to CB if there are injuries

hakim Ziyech - Right winger - good backup option, knows the PL. not amazing but better than Harrison for sure.
Is this a joke? :lol: 💀
 

We need a player who can actually play defensive mid mate. When Gana goes to pasture we aren't looking or shouldn't be looking for a number 8 which he is who is great defensively to replace.

We should be looking to actually have an 8 more like KDH and a defensive midfielder behind both.
Gana is not an 8 in my eyes. I don't think there's too many who would classify him as such.

As I've said, he's definitely not a traditional deep lying 6, flanked by two 8s as you'd want in a 4-3-3

But we don't play 4-3-3, we play 4-2-3-1, so Gana was and still is the more defensive minded player of a double pivot.

We could go round in circles on this so, out of interest (and interest in moving the debate on) who would you like to see us sign as a CDM? A Luiz? Arguably he's not a proper no.6, more of a hybrid in the Gana mould as well
 


you make good points although I think people who are being viewed as negative being dismissed as cry arses or bed wetters here and social media doesn’t help at times .

I get there are those who like to take the mick and have a laugh doing that but , when you weigh up what some of the negative viewpoints stem from, it’s only from experience of what’s transpired isn’t it.

How many times have we been lacking before a season starts or having issues year on year or having to wait till this time or another time to see obvious issues sorted.

I think some of our fans get a bit of harsh stick and when you consider how many turned out for games the club should be ashamed of (last day relegation battles) they’ve been there when it mattered.

Think about what some fans of other clubs would be like with even half the crap that has gone on here, i remember some of them lot losing their minds only a handful of months of Roy Hodgson for example.
Agree with you on almost every bit of that mate. The “cry arses” to me are only the ones that do it over every single thing. Definitely more positives with the club than we have had for years.

Our fans have always deserved so much more. The passion, following, support the club has received for what we have had back is insane.

I genuinely dont think any fan base on the planet deserves a trophy to celebrate as much as we do.
