Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

[Neiler]

not like we don’t know that

I think if you are being really ruthless youre cutting adrift lads like Myko, Paterson and Garner - they struggle at the level Chelsea are at and if you want to to compete with those clubs you have to have those lads out of your team or squad.

we need a few windows to do it all tho so it’s a couple of a years i’d say to be around top/6/7

we will be top 10 tho for sure

Mcneil? For me I would take 20m for him.

We need a new number ten /number 8, a new right winger with pace and cutting edge and a striker.

CB/left back and DM. Good luck lads

I’m not so sure I agree about Myko. Seen lots of improvement on defence. He’s held his own against Palmer and essentially made Salah a non-factor.

How about Doucoure?

Gone too. Although I can see Moyes extending 1 year + 1

If Bailey at Villa is available he might be worth a look. Pace and direct running

He is good defensively and in the big games is effective at shutting wingers out, just not a threat with his deliveries or when linking up. Has improved a bit in that under Moyes, but we need another option to rotate/fight for the shirt for me.

I bet Johnboy’s a 50 year old overweight virgin calling a 17 year old that - social media eh.

Watching James McClean today showing some class. Would have been a decent signing for us a few years ago. Not saying we sign him today but shows the value of an orthodox winger with pace and power.

…he’s 36 and plays for Wrexham.

How is he even getting a mention in 2025 in any fashion

Forest are the example for me, two rapid wingers and mobile playmakers behind them and a reliable goal scorer. They have raw pace that can frighten even the best teams. We have not recruited this for whatever reason for years.

Have you ever watched him play? I have btw for ireland many times. He is absolutely crap
