Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

[Toffe3m4n]

You are right,nothing wrong with hoping and I’m an optimist (mostly) but being a realist at this juncture of the transfer season,I’m getting more and more concerned,especially after yesterday’s game.
The stadium made my day its almost unbelievable it’s ours

I still personally saw enough yesterday that we'll alright really. Just need players to stay fit in the main.

Anyone else thinking we pull Mcatee out of the bag with Grealish.

 

[MikeH72]

Agree.

I'd rather 'go with what we've got' then spend money on filler either way. We have a great opportunity to build this squad back up with better quality over time, so we need to just hold our nerve and stick to our guns if you ask me.

Oh god we’re still doing this one on the 10th August are we. Except now it’s gone from “would rather wait until the end of the window” to “would rather not buy anyone” because we’ve now come to the realisation that it basically is the end of the window.

We still don’t have a right winger at the club, I was assured many weeks ago by the brains trust on here to stop bedwetting because we would definitely, DEFINITELY have one lined up and we were taking our time and making sure we got our top target in rather than panic buy Jack Harrison early. So the “rather buy no one” doesn’t wash I’m afraid, let’s see who rocks up, it better be a zinger.

Well done lads you got our new striker hitting out against you before he’s even kicked a competitive ball.

Welcome to Everton mate, best fans in der werld.

Calvert Lewin's wife on Instagram is talking about this.

 

[MaghullBlue1878]

I'm sorry mate but any signings now will not be starting against Leeds.

It's how Moyes works, they'll need training sessions and a couple of sub appearances.

We've missed the deadline for season start, so I'd say most of the signings are now going to deadline day unfortunately.

Would agree for most but I think say if it was a Grealish/ an actual right winger they slot straight in.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Agreed.

Leeds fans confirming that they are the biggest arseholes in world football.

To be fair like mate we’ve had fans booing Lewin on a few occasions.

Thought that ever since the talks over Grealish started, would make a huge degree of sense bringing in both as they are used to each others game, throw in Mcatee has also played - and linked up really well with Ndiaye a few seasons ago also.

We don't score enough, KDH will score a few so adding JMc would bring another in whose a natural finisher.

Them two and Dibling - would cost us around around 85-90, but would strengthen us hugely in starters and depth. And all are doable deals if we are willing to spend it.

Is 'advancing' somewhere between 'pondering' and 'contemplation'. Or is it further up the line, towards 'strong consideration'?

Advancing means we are walking around pondering before contemplating

 

[Daytripper]

When I hear of us advancing, for some reason I'm reminded of Blackadder and the advanced war tactics.

Wibble

And out comes....Jack Harrison

 

[MrGrumpy]

Oh I'm no fan and I'd rather we promote from within if it's an anyway viable option.

However, as back up, it wouldn't be the worst news in the world for me if the club brought him back.
As others have pointed out, his defensive discipline has always been good.
The problem was always his end product in the opposition half. Which was not good enough for the premier.

Probably a moot point anyhow. Doesn't look like the fans want him at Leeds so another champioship club will probably take a punt on him. It's a level he can perform at

I don’t get this Bring him back crap

Doesn’t score goals don’t create goals so what the point?

 

[Gallaeo]

We need Grealish and dibling done by Tuesday at the latest ideally.

Looks like we’re too far apart on valuation for Dibling. Can’t see that on happening

 

[Noisy noise annoys]

Why are people STILL talking about Harrison? He’s crap and he doesn’t play for us after being let go for a reason

Stockholm syndrome going on here

That’s a good point actually, we should try and get him back. I’d take him as a squad option.

Lad broke his cheekbone, played on for 10 minutes with his face ballooning from the swelling and was booed off.
