Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

We should be filling all the loan slots

Now if you had put that in capitals or with an exclamation mark you could have joined the " unhinged maniacs" C.

Better luck next time

Mikey he's an absolutely appalling player, may as well ask my gran to play and she died in 1984

Condolences to you and the family at this difficult time

I know there's leaky bladders over no RB I'm perplexed we haven’t got another forward. More experienced forward needed.

I was fully expecting Antonio to end up here as a cheap experienced back up option.

We were linked with a young Serbian centre back Milosavljevic earlier in the window. Just turned 18, tall lad who seems decent on the ball. His team got knocked out of the champions league this week. I’d be happy with getting him in

Gone to Bournemouth

I know it would never happen, but watching Baines play a few weeks ago at BMD, he’s still better than most in the league right now.

Still time yet mate ....and don't forget you can sign free agents outside the window.

Be afraid, be very afraid.

So Job had a poor game Saturday so hope its a 1 off, Tarks is well off form at present, Keane is an accident waiting to happen before he then goes on one of those runs were it all goes wrong for him , Braithwaite is injured for how long ? Our left back doesnt offer anything going forward and the new one looks well off from being a starter , Leeds went through us so did Brighton many times and at one stage Wolves pinned us back and could have snatched a draw both goals conceded were really poor defensively

So away from home, with the lead, I’d expect them to pin us back and come at us. They put on extra attackers and push higher up to try and score. That’s usual in football.

Myko offers nothing going forward? I’m glad that’s not true or Beto doesn’t score on Sat.

I imagine, the fact that we haven’t signed another CB indicates branthwaite* will be due back soon.

Tarks had bad spells last season, Keane had a run of games last season. And we got through it and again still had the 4th best defence.

Not buying a right back is so weird . If we got one in this would be the best TDD in a long while . A shame .

 

[Bebeto]

Wonder whether NDiaye or Tyler could work as emergency strikers.

So we have garner as emergency rb, ndiaye as emergency striker...this is no good. There should be at the very least 3 strikers in any pl club...and having a cb at rb until at least January that's also very poor from a recruitment perspective.

 

[Blue Roo]

It’s a failing to not bring in a RB, we clearly need one. It is ok to be a bit critical you know.

I'd love to see a rb in but not if its a filler, not if its not a step, not if its another Patterson. I'd rather wait for more money in coming 2 windows. And if and when a rb and lb of real quality come in it'll transform this team, just as this window has been doing.

 

[Somerset Blue]

Yeah alright Al, you’re just trying to get another 3hrs pay out of Sky!

 

[Toffe3m4n]

You are being dismissive. Labelling people’s opinions as crying for simply pointing out an obvious issue that has been there for ages.

Again...

I'm just pointing out that expectations probably should've been revised given how Moyes himself sees things

Also... it is crying. Always the same individuals as well. Just calling it like I see it
.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Where's this narrative that JOB had a 'bad' game on Sunday suddenly come from btw? that's a new one?

 

[nonstripdzebra]

Personally the strikers I am not all that worried about at least to January. Beto and Barry are fit and with both arguable for their spot in the first 11. In a pinch Ndiaye can cover with now Dibling and Jack on the wings, and KDH being able to be in the 10. Not to mention possibly Rohl if he's indeed added, who from the looks of it occupies between the 10 and CM and even at times at ST.

RB I just think is a massive oversight. We have been clamoring for good cover for what's now multiple windows at the spot. Have had to patchwork so many times. I feel like people are remembering a Patterson I feel like I never saw. One can say Garner and O'Brien can cover, but that creates depth issues in their respective preferred positions too. And if it's very possible that your best option is a player playing out of position I think that's a major worry.

I just really think they should have got at least an Aznou like youngster at best to finish the last 20 in matches. Or a loan or free with some experience.

Milan Van Ewijk is available for 10 mil from Coventry. Immediately balances our defence and after one good season in the prem his value doubles. No brainier
