Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread


Italians pretty much only use ‘k’ in loan words from other languages eg kiwi, kayak. The same is true for J, W, X and Y. In this way the core Italian alphabet use is a throwback to the late era Etruscan alphabet (20 letters) rather than Latin (initially 23, now 26). Latin had a K (from Greek) though it was mainly only used in Greek transplant words with C more commonly used and having both soft and hard sound variants just as it does in modern English. Latin received medieval adaptations with J,U,W added to represent the secondary Latin pronunciations of I, V and the doubled V V to become the modern 26 we use. Boring but true 😉

I’d say you’re sorry you asked that question now 😂😂😂😂
 
We need more than 4.

The target should be 8 in now. That should be the realistic goal.
Not a chance we bring in 8 more unless they are all dross, that would be very concerning. 5 or 6 tops I reckon, 2 more purchases the rest loans or freebies. I think if we signed quality in each of the below we would have a good top half squad next season. We dont need as big a squad as others due to no European football.
RW (quality player with pace) - No.1 priority now
CM (ball player) - Desperately need to progress to next level
FWD (versatile) probably a loan, experienced player who can impact a game
RB - Need a Starter here unless Patterson starts pulling up trees
LB - Cover for Micko possibly younger/development player
 

I have a feeling we wont sign a RB, because Obrien is first choice there and we have coleman and patterson as cover
I dont think we will sign a LW, its either Ndiaye or McNeil there.
We need a LB, hopefully someone more attacking than Myko
I think we will probably only get 1 CM, though I would like 2
we will get a RW and a 10 that can play RW, to give us cover
I think if we sign another CF it will be a loan, like Broja last season

So I think we will only sign 5 more (after Travers), I would like more, but I just dont think we will get it done.
That basically means going into the season with one viable RB (who's not a specialist RB). I cant believe that at all.

Overall, we need strong competition EVERYWHERE.

That's not saying well get it like.
 
Yes, but we have not been in for anyone else since. Before the window opened we were heavily linked with; Walker-Peters, Coufal and Lamptey, Lamptey signed an extension but Walker-Peters and Coufal are free agents and it doesn't seem like we have tried to sign either of them.
Walker-Peters is apparently going to Besiktas. Coufal seems to have absolutely no rumours about him at the moment.
 
Nelson Semedo? His contract has expired at Wolves. Perhaps signing him may convince Conceicao to join as he seems reluctant according to reports despite us making an offer. Both are Portugese so playing together on right side of the team could improve the chances for both of them making Portugal's World Cup squad.
Lid doesn’t want Everton, if his heart isn’t in it he can get to F, it’s a privilege to don that blue jersey, Nil Satis Nisi Optimum😎

I was just thinking that

I’d say we need at least a minimum of 4 in judging from this graphic (Travers already assumed as signed for back up Gk).

RW
CDM
RB
LB

then ideal we’d also another RW and a CAM
