2025 Summer Transfer gossip and squad discussion (and manager)

[SG90]

Paqueta close to Villa. Be good news if it happens as it will weaken West Ham.

[White Lotus]

That Turkish kid from Besiktas we were linked with has joined Cagliari on loan. I wonder why we didn't look into it

Why do you struggle to figure these things out? There's a whole host of reasons could be behind it, with perhaps the main one being - We never were interested and it was probably just lazy journo's and clickbait.

Do not believe everything you read - Rupert Murdoch.

Also - How do you know we didn't and concluded he was garbage? Go figure, it ain't hard.

Does anyone else wonder why these players do not want to play for us !.
1, They are probably going to be in for a dog fight to keep us.
2, I really think Farke is an issue twice in prem once relegated and sacked players coming in have no or very little confidence in the manager which I totally agree with I have no faith either in him .

[Cjay]

I've no idea of the logistics of getting a player signed from a Russian club.

No idea if it's possible in the time we have.

But of the players linked Eduard Spertsyan is the one imo.

We have wingers, whether they are good enough who knows but we have them.

We haven't got a 10 who can create and take a set piece and that is what he does.

He's also a Captain.

Still young, no idea how the level is in Russia but I doubt its easy in terms of physicality so hopefully he'd cope with that in that regard here.

He's the one imo (prefer more than one but beggars can't be choosers)

[pjm2019]

we have until 7 pm on monday.

any solid rumours of who we want and have a real chance of getting

[White Lotus]

Not solid, just jungle drums.

[Cjay]

Spanish media saying Getafe attacker Christantus Uche is travelling to England now to complete a move to England.

Us or Palace mentioned as his likely destination

So congratulations Crystal Palace

Don't agree with you usually but not this time.
Best option for me too although it may take more time to settle and that might be a problem

It was Crystal Palace

That's where he's going apparently

[The Subhuman]

Should be an interesting day tomorrow.

[Barlow Boy]

Should be an interesting day tomorrow.

I usually spend deadline day in front of the tele, but I’m travelling tomorrow.

Hopefully, SKY GO will be working fine

Not just incomings, be interesting to see what happens with Meslier. He's still a very talented keeper.

Hardly a surprise though given Glasner has been complaining about their lack of transfer activity. Plus they have the Eze money and are likely to be selling Guehi too. They need a statement signing to placate the fans.

Yeah we could do with trimming the squad a bit, him, Gyabi and possibly others too.

[The Subhuman]

The way I see the squad with players in their best position

Goalkeepers - Perri - Meslier - Darlow - Cairns

Right backs - Bogle - Byram
Left backs - Gudmundsson - Justin

DMF - Ampadu - Gruev

CBR - Rodon - Bijol - Bornauw
CBL - Struijk

8's - Stach, Tanaka, Aaronson, Longstaff

RW - James - Nmecha
LW - Gnonto - Okafor - Harrison

10's - Need
Striker - Calvert Lewin - Piroe - Need

[Cjay]

As for us nothing really.

Some whispers of Buendia or Harry Wilson which really gets the excitement brewing

But yeah nothing concrete or even vague (those 2 are just gossips)

[Cjay]

A link finally

Most obvious one possible but at this stage desperation has set in.

Looked fairly bright yesterday

But it's years since he's done anything of note.

Is he still physically capable of carrying Daniel Farke
