Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

Miserable arse here, but if this window closes without some genuine pace adding - it's a big failing.

Gana starts every week for me. Still an unbelievable player, who is going to cost us a fortune to replace.

Agree unbelievable player, and think having a stronger squad with these additional signings give us different options and especially when the likes of Gana heads off to Afcon and potentially misses 6-7 league games, plus cup games.

Why would anyone want to get rid of McNeill. He's a very good player and an ideal squad member.

If we got rid of him we'd have to replace him.

 

[Blue Roo]

Pre Ndaiye, how long since we had one, let alone 3 guys, who can dribble and take on more than one player?
If we don't get any of a LB, CM, RB and 9 it'll still been the best window in a long time.

Would you be happy if was at rb and maybe the striker if we bring one in

He's ok as a squad player but that's it.

Very limited at RW and no pace.

If you could bring in a better , faster player who can cover both flanks equally well that would be an upgrade.

Right back is vital. The wingers we have all want to do similar things. Someone running behind with pace and putting a cross in would be very useful.

Is intreresting seeing southampton drop the fernades price for west ham, does make you think if other players at different clubs will do the same.

It's dropped to £42 m ?

Bloody hell.

If Dibling and Fernandez are so good how come Southampton were so crap.

I disagree. If he is so good so why did Chelsea replace him with Pedro and Delap? Because they bring other dimensions to the forward position.

The point he made is that Jackson would be far better than anyone WE have which is correct.

As it happens I seriously doubt Delap is better than him.
I certainly would pick Jackson of the two.

I think big failing is a stretch, we've done good business. I'd say it'd be more a case of falling short but clearly we've been active and trying.

Think that may be why the Vardy rumours won't disappear. Not saying he's the answer, but it wouldn't suprise me at all if Moyes wanted him in.

Probably similar reasons Leicester got relegated with vardy , Maddison , KDH , tielimans and barnes. Or that amazing WHU side of 02/03

I'll stick with big. One thing this team needed as the priority was pace, and it still does.

I think we are the slowest team in the league - we need some pace to stretch play.

I’ve watched him play live several times. He is much much better than Delap. If he sorts his finishing he will be a top player. He creates a lot on his own.

He's third choice for his preferred position and arguably for the backup position on the right now.

Would be a good source of income if there is any interest.
