Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

[Frenk]

Because he’s not good enough

Looks good to me.

Gana wins the ball back as well as anyone and Alcaraz can run past people. Tim has the potential to do both.

Coutinho ran around Gana in 2017 to score at Anfield. It’s now 2025 and Gana has only got slower. He’s great at sitting deep, timing interceptions, nicking the ball back, closing passing lanes yes absolutely but he’s not great at dominating space or dominating the ball which is ultimately what we need to do to move forward as a team and be able to play on the front foot.

We wouldn’t have to make so many tackles if our midfield helped us control the ball and possession more.

Championship player of the season not good enough?

Was in the PL the year before, 4 goals and 7 assists in the PL, from the engine room in central midfield - for Sheff Utd.

Thats enough for any of us to be open minded.

 

[jazzy]

I think we should, he may be slightly rounded but seems to move pretty fast still.

Especially if there's a big Mac on offer

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

where does Hamer play?

Sheffield

 

[Saint Domingo]

We've been in financial bother and fighting relegation off over the last 5 years.

Yes, we will be chasing shadows against the elite teams in this league. We aren't going to bridge that gap in one transfer window.

Perhaps not but we also don’t need to continue the problem. If we keep Gueye and Alcaraz to go with Garner then fine but we need any new arrivals to be a step in the right direction not another Tom Davies/Klaassen/Allan etc. all of whom were too slow.

Amusingly, he didn’t win Sheffield United’s player of the season.

Coutinho ran around Gana in 2017 tos fore at Anfield. It’s now 2025 and Gana has only got slower. He’s great at sitting deep, timing interceptions, nicking the ball back, closing passing lanes yes absolutely but he’s not great at dominating space or dominating the ball which is ultimately what we need to do to move forward as a team and be able to play on the front foot.

We wouldn’t have to make so many tackles if our midfield helped us control the ball and possession more.

We need a better midfield but we absolutely need Gana right now. It’s Garner that is the weak link tbh.

Coutinho ran around a lot of players to score in his day
