Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

[Simon Buttle]

You won’t be wanting Richie back then!


In fairness, he does appear to have grown out of his old behaviour

He is a rotten egg though, it was said it was him that was leaking info out of OT under Ten Hag, has a brother who seems to be his PA who is also a bit a weapon by all accounts.

Bournemouth's Huijsen replacement? Nailed on.

That tinpot Tory club love lashing big money at RS turds. Hopefully, Iraola puts a stop to that nonsense.

Diving, play acting, whinging, self entitled little maggot. Thankfully we won’t be daft enough to pay his overinflated fee that Utd will try and rinse other clubs for, just like the rest of the playing squad they will be asking a premium for because of the club badge, the narrative of their mates in the media and not based on actual ability. Like you have said, he’d never come here and I’m thankful for that.

We would have to pay him 10 mil a year on top of any transfer - need to shop smarter than this.

 

[Librarian]

They won't be going for less than 50m each. Avoid!

Agreed. If they’re not making the difference at Utd, why would they suddenly give us a lift?

I like the John Giles description of most players as ‘joiner-iners’, most footballers play well when the team is playing well and poorly when it’s not going their way.

The real trick is to find players that lift their team, even if they’re not fancied players, if the team performs better with them than without them then that for me is the only stat worth looking at.

Yeah, but he’s be OUR diving, play acting, whinging, self entitled little maggot…

And he’d be adored by our fanbase.

He’s be amazing for us

He looks like an emaciated Tim Burgess.

 

[blue to the bone]

A Coventry supporting buddy always felt Hamer had a higher ceiling than Gyokores when they were both there

An Everton fan here thought Gareth Southgate should have replaced Dyche who he also thought should never be sacked. Pay very little heed to supporters

I think Moyes gets this and he's a decent judge of player character.

Whether we can transfer those types is more up to the Friedkins I guess.

 

[Nyhus]

He also looks like the result of putting Pete Burns and Dwayne Dibley into the machine from “the fly”.

 

[Neiler]

Chelsea, City and Norway are all eating their diners - we have to see what left for the rest of us unfavored children.

Didn’t know that!
Still think he’d be amazing for us - would never come though

Mainoo lacks positional sensHe's

He's 20' give him to Moyes and Idrissa Gueye for a preseason and he'd be fine.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

He's a centre forward who is very seldom fit, when he is fit he doesn't score goals.

That would be an apt epitaph on his headstone.

We ain't signing Mainoo.
