Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

[KevMirallas]

God we’re so close to a proper squad here. Just get the feeling we’re not quite going to finish the job. Might be a matter of sitting and hoping one big January addition can spark the charge after putting in good foundations now.

 

[Marcus Kendall]

Maehle
Frendup
Dia loan

Actually always liked Maehle and he's equally good at right and left back but I think his best days are behind him (I'm a Denmark fan so I've seen a fair bit of him) Frendrup is a good shout too but doubt we'd be paying the price required for a non-priority position

Need a right back, another six and another forward who can play up front and on the wing. Whether we get all these we shall see..

 

[windymiller]

Aguero, Besic and Cafu please Moyes.

,One of these things is not like the others, one of these things is not quite the same

 

[DaChunk]

Hopefully agent KDH can help us lure one of chelsea's 105 bench players to the club for some depth.

The more footballers we put in the team the better we become.

Who knew?

Players who can play,

Let’s stay with that theme, keep Armstrong and avoid any journeymen ‘squad fillers’.

Unless they add quality we don’t want them.

If there’s a quality player we can bring in the next 2 days then great.

Yep. Liam Delap. He chose poorly.

Like the scene from Indian Jones final crusade when the Nazi is trying to pick which is the Holly Grail

 

[Tel001]

You’d have to be absolutely raging if you were a West Ham fan.

It has been us for the past 4/5 years mate

I’m just happy it’s not us anymore

You can’t even begin to compare Harrison, Doucoure and Lindstrom to Grealish, KDH and Dibling. Just look at the difference?
Can you imagine if we had the same upgrade to our full back positions. Myko and JOB (who is basically playing out of position anyway) have done a commendable job, but if they were replaced by full backs who first and foremost are solid defensively, but are equally comfortable with the ball in attacking areas, than our team would be so much stronger. Obviously it’s not going to happen this window (maybe the RB) but it should be positions we should prioritise in the next windows, that would undoubtedly move the team forward.

Getting Last Crusade vibes here

Posted the same thing before I read your post

Was impressed with Hackney today. Works so hard but good composure on the ball also. But it’s a big ask to make the step up to the PL at such a young age, but the lad does look a talent.

Mate he's 23, not exactly that young really.

Window closes Monday night mate

Yeah 7pm Monday mate
It’s less than 48hrs away pal

Genuinely thought he was younger than that, certainly looks it. Do you think he could make the step up to the PL?

Honestly don't know mate, not seen that much of him. He reminds me a lot of how garner looked at forest on loan in the championship though, although garner was only 20-21 at the time

 

[Dwight K Schrute]

Well got 8 million now to add to the kitty

Wonder if they get the young RB at Norwich

Isn't it a lot more than that with the crazy way football transfers are calculated? As in, it gives us double that in real terms. Could get 2 £16m players on 4 year contracts etc.
