Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

Slowest team in the prem & we try to sign an OAP - no sell on fee - waste of space plus he wants more than 90 k per week ? Lunacy IMO

You actually don’t know any of this Joey you crazy old crop grower

Go & read your Beano's ....

Rebuilding with a player not far from being 31 years old & big money wages is nonsensical IMO OK

Fair point but I don’t know the deal. A 2 year contract, for instance may support a transition

 

[Kurt.]

He is a good buy - he now looks to be edged out of the team by an OAP in Soucek

Again… you are guessing and getting angry about your own thoughts

Let's face it, we're getting Broja on deadline day aren't we?

He has told DM he wants a lucrative deal as he knows it will be his last deal he is months of being 31 by the way ....

That’s getting old now Joe. Be original

He was acquired on a 2 year deal. It seems that the “committee” weren’t overly convinced.
As before, I’m no expert… would love everyone to be a success but 5 year deals for “not convincing” players have burnt us historically

You mean the guy Burnley bought?

Except this time we’ve also brought in Dibling, Grealish and KDH. Would’ve been impossible under the old regime. Soucek proves nobody spot in, unless they are the sort to disregard all evidence contrary to their view and then still claim to be right.

Soucek would be part of a mix. On higher wages, probably, but one purchase like that does NOT signal a return to the Moshiri era mindset. Honestly I think some of us have been permanently scarred by the last few years. Unable to see that we are in a different place right now.

I’m not saying I’d be all over him, but the attitude displayed by some at the prospect of his arrival is more akin to PTSD than it is common sense.

Not at all mate, common sense would be looking at what the squad needs and bringing in players to sort it

I never once looked at our squad and thought they were needed a defensive mid who can't defend but is a big lump
