Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

[Curtis]

I could care less about not getting soucek but having to look at that cringe ass post , the only way to create harmony in the universe once again, is for west ham to get relegated

That Lad Bradley that plays at our first house ( not our second house ) is not getting a game
The scum played a player out of position there so the ugly baldy one obviously doesn’t fancy Bradley
There again its hard to replace the best RB in the wooiirrrrrrrllllldddd isn’t it
Question. Is he still the best right back in the world now that he jibbed off the scum and went and played for a proper big team in a proper stadium
Back on topic , we should bid for Bradley as back up to O Brien Garner Coleman and Patterson if he stays

He's just coming back from injury so only got minutes last night
He'll get plenty of minutes for them because Slot will rotate him and Frimpong in game and as starters.

What in the Neil Buchanan is going on there?!

 

[BainesontoastNEW]

Are we actually linked with Gallagher?

I'm not sure we should take the thread in an evolutionary Biology direction

Bradley is a very good young talent, but we'd have to pay an absurd fee to make a deal happen. If no marks from their academy go for like 20 + mil, how much would a good young full back with proven PL pedigree with 4 year left on his deal cost their local rivals?

West Ham saving us some grief at their own expense. Thanks Hammers.

He's just not what we need.

 

[Drico]

Conor Gallagher would be a great addition imo. He would really fit in nicely with the players around him.

Yes, I like this idea too.

I think you know what you're going to get with him, a nice mix of combat and technique. We need somebody to get on the ball and link up the play a little bit. Not sure we really have that hub at the moment.

Can see why Moyes would want Soucek. In basic terms we need more goals from midfield. Was surprised to see Soucek had scored 7 and 9 in his past two Premier League seasons & we definitely need to add height in the midfield. He’s durable too, starting over 30 Premier League games in each of the last four seasons.

Concerned with his lack of mobility though and don’t really want to be paying too much for a 30 year old.

£50m for Strand Larsen. Why don't those idiots at Newcastle offer us that for Beto? I'd drive him there.

 

[hallamblue]

He's an 8/10. Think we need someone more balanced in a traditional DM mould. Not debating his ability though.

Box to box midfielder, which we lack.

 

[Who's_up_for_cumpkins?]

Think we should go bid for the lad from Boro just to screw with west ham. Their fans are already on the edge as it is

 

[blueboy72]

According to the bobble we Haven’t bid for soucek, we enquired and apparently he’s staying unless they get a few midfielders in late in tbe window,
They have bought one today and linked with Hackney from Middlesbrough.
But they have lost 2 as well. So fingers crossed they keep him.
Would be a bad move from Moyes imo, wouldn’t go down well with the fan base

 

[jazzy]

Monaco midfielder off to Wham.

Please God this doesn't lead to Soucek coming to us.

Unlike others on here I don't think he's crap but we will massively overpay in terms of fee and wages and he's the wrong profile of midfielder that we need.

Perhaps Moyes would utulise him as a "super sub"/battering ram if we're desperate for a goal towards the end of the game? Think of him as a wildcard.

I doubt he'd start 30 games for us.

I haven't watched enough of him to know what it is, but there's evidently something about him that top level clubs aren't sure about. He's been knocking around for a while without a big club moving for him, so clearly something is putting them off.

He's still a developmental prospect. He's great on the ball, hugely progressive with it, passing numbers & stats are fantastic. Not quite there physically and lacks a bit in the defensive side of his game at present.

The stuff he can do well is natural ability and can't be taught, the stuff he can improve on is learned behaviour and can be coached and developed.

He is an 8 rather than a 6, but would be a fantastic signing at £15/20m and gives us another player with quality on the ball in midfield.
