Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

Hitzlsperger?

Think so… Almost said Schneiderlin because his name sounds German, but he’s actually French.

Happy Transfer Deadline day to all who celebrate

Did Anton Donkor ever play for the first team? He was German

It’s time to sign some germans.

When/who the last German we had.

Allegedly, Hitler had a soft spot for us.

Hitzlsperger?

Surely the German keeper with long hair?

No mate, played for the under-23’s before becoming another regular sick note. Sent him back to Germany without ever touching the first team, if I remember correctly.

Wessels? I think Hitzlsperger was more recent

There’s just no way you can stand there staring at a whiteboard with our squad written on it and not go: “you know what, we haven’t got a right-back or a proper defensive midfielder”.

Do better, Everton.

I'd say we can manage without either but it's not great.

The lack of right back is particularly damning.

I just don’t like the idea the club think it’s okay to “manage” that’s all. If we’re completely out of funds, sure, but if we’re not it’s potentially just wasting an opportunity to finish high this year.

We won games in Jan which meant we pulled away from some transfers and I’d hate to think that’s what we’ve done today.

Defo shares posts of missing dogs in Seattle.

Sign some players please Everton.

They told us to judge them on September 1st. Well right now I’m preparing to judge them at a 5/10. First half of the window was a complete unholy mess, salvaged post-US a bit with the signings of KDH, Grealish and Dibling. But currently we are on course to finish the window with huge holes and weaknesses still in the key areas of the squad.

I want to see our recruitment team better prepared for the January window, no excuses either because their mates are finishing their gardening leave and starting this month. They better be getting straight to work so they are ready for the 1st January.

If we finalise 2/3 signings today, does that bump your rating up to 7 maybe 8/10, Mike?

We are still short a few signings, but I must say, I haven’t felt this enthusiastic about our signings and progress at the beginning of a season since perhaps the Ancelotti season.
