Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

[Bryan+]

Not to go to far off topic but as we were talking about portfolio clubs this is the bomb squad changing room at Chelsea.

Oh those poor things

Watched Damsgaard yesterday…. Can’t we kidnap him for a season or two ?

I like the fact his fringe starts on the back of his head and he's not felt the need to shave it all off.

This shows a single focused mind.

Ive just answered that. They finished rock bottom. Concedeing almost double the rest of the sides in the league.
Thats like saying players who played for sheff united in the prem had fantastic stats. If you just ignored the 100 odd goals that went in.

What lol. What are you going on about. Are you claiming gana was brilliant in a villa side that got relegated. And aznou was brilliant in a side that got relegated. Aznou didnt even play that much for valladolid.
But im not having the fantastic stats bullsh!t off zat.

"Fantastic stats bullshit"

Sounds like you never rated Pickford, Tarkowski or Branthwaite because 2 were relegated (that i actually wanted us to sign) and the other massively improved on a loan.

Funnily enough, the Gana (as you mention him) signing was quite clear with his stats. Anzou's stats picked him out as in the 99th percentile for tackling amongst other things.

But seeing as you dont want to take stats / facts onboard then...

We have to get one from them - one of their right backs, him or Bove for midfield or that Ukrainian striker. Luckily we need all those positions

Wesley is their best RB. Thelwell had a deal arranged for him in January.

The one people keep mentioning is Celik who I said was crap when we were linked to him years ago. Hes still crap.

Lovely bit of revisionism of the Doucoure goal. You didn’t celebrate a last minute winner at a team that was flying high in the league (even considering how crap we’ve been for years) purely because you wanted Doucoure to leave.

I didn’t rate Beckford at all, but let me tell you how much I was celebrating his goal in the away end at the pit…

The issue sometimes Zat is you come across as if you’ve constantly got half an eye out the door - you can’t seem to enjoy football for what it is or the present. You’re obsessed with the next big thing.

A 90+ winner away from home at a club in the European places is as good as we’ve had for the last few years. The fact you didn’t celebrate that probably confused the hell out of 99% of the forum.

I think you’ve got some great takes on transfer strategy and recruitment at times, it just goes a bit too FM too frequently.

Youre comparing a pointless goal in a pointless game to a player scoring against the RS.

Then youre then acting as if you know me.

Perhaps you should put me on ignore as you come across as a bit of a knowitall. who thinks theyre a mindreader.

Nice to know you play computer games, you're on the wrong part of the forum.

OMG @Zatara you’re being kerb stomped here.

Two more that are ready to play added this week and we’re probably alright. Just alright.

Really Chico?

1 person cant type a coherent sentence
1 is a self appointed former RS
1 lives alone somewhere in the Irish countryside
1 claims to be a mindreader

I think i'll be ok sleeping

You put that group in a room and youve got a bigbrother episode no one wants to watch.

 

[Zatara]

I never said you couldnt. I disputed fantastic stats. I doubt vallodolid had one single fantastic stat all season.
Thats not to say every player is bad. Esp a 19yr old on loan.

Dude, i'm just going to type this once.

A statistic is defined as “a fact or piece of data obtained from a study of a large quantity of numerical data”.

If you disagree or dispute facts then it's a bit strange.

Aznou's defensive stats were eye openingly good. That is a fact.

In effect they’ve created a factory production line of young players, which as you say is disgusting, but that’s the way it is now - hence why the likes of Blackburn, Bolton, Preston etc snap them up when they let go of them at 16/18.

They have a premium on players simply because of their brand as well. How any club can think Broja is worth 20mill is nuts. If he was our player we’d only be able to loan him out until his contract was up.

That’s basically all Burnley have done. He’s still not fit

 

[MisterJ]

If we could somehow get Hector Fort with an obligation or option then the window would start to look quite successful.

Barca may be more open to a deal than usual. Aren't they in real trouble, needing to raise funds and offload players so they can register new signings?

Yes apparently their new signing Roony cant even be registered, they have form for this of course. They also cant even loan him unless hes registered hahaha.

Cant see Hector Fort agreeing to join us permanently.

I dont mind your posts zat. You take a bit of a uncalled shoeing on here at times. But you push your luck at times with sh!t like fantastic stats.

And please dont call me dude. Unless you're riding a skateboard while posting.
