The Summer 2025 Transfer Window Thread

Exactly.

It may take him a while to get full fitness back, so him being an impact sub for us suits both parties.

I would be happy to have him in the squad too, I’ve always liked him - but if we are signing Tolu and keeping JSL (I know I know) he’s then third or even fourth choice.

Linked to Brais Méndez. 28 year old attacking midfielder for Real Sociedad. Capped for Spain. 16 goals in 96 appearances for Sociedad.

I did hear earlier from someone associated with the club that we are looking at a very ambitious loan with a £40M+ option/obligation but he needs a lot of convincing.

Hwang has interest (loan) from Saudi and Turkey so he still could go after tomorrow.

I thought I'd pass it on.

Very good player. Doubt we'd be able to get him.

Fbref is terrible at these.

In what world are Rice, Fernández, and Ødegaard remotely comparable?

At least it didn't say 'Fabio Silva' this time!

I don't have faith in us getting anything other than the easiest and most mediocre of signings over the line now tbh

Stinks of us making a last ditch attempt at a big name to appease the fans but ending up with Brownhill, doesn’t it?

Gotta say, give me moaners (Hi Jinks x) over 'be positive' bland, complacent fuckos like this fella any day

Them or the ones where Fosun/jeff/the club can do no wrong in their eyes. Painful

Is a balancing act of awareness and context. During prime Nuno years we still had people moaning, if you couldn't enjoy wolves at that point it would be impossible to enjoy wolves at all.

But right now there isn't a single thing that says we'll survive this season, and it's been coming for the last few seasons. Couple that with the nonsense that comes out of Jeff shis mouth (and that bizarre column he wrote in the e&s a few times). I can't see many reasons to be positive at the moment

Any prospective signing will surely look at the table, read Shi's comments and think "fuck that".

The only thing we have going for us this season is time. (As in, there are 35 games left)

But that is it.

Whatever Vitor's squad looks like this time tomorrow, he has to find a formula in it for getting points between now and the next window

And that's the sort of hard-hitting analysis you can expect here on TWF.

I just hope the buy out rumour on MM is true

 

[Carsy]

I spotted Jackson making a fair few decent runs yesterday - but he needs the ball playing in front of him so he can run onto it (remember we all wanted Adama to do this except he kept standing still and wanting it to feet?). Now we have a player who wants it played in behind so he can run on to it, but in Andre and Joao Gomes, we have two players who are most comfortable knocking it neat and tidy in to feet.

That’s why it’s imperative we get a more creative midfielder in. Absolute farce that we’ve arrived in the last two days of the transfer window to get one over the line.

Could Lopez be that guy maybe? Only seen the highlights as been away all weekend but he seemed to be. Granted a small sample size, but seemed very proactive

The man could make a fortune charging tickets to punch him in the face

 

[Carsy]

"Feeling positive" can only be based purely on hope as all the empirical evidence points to us being woefully short on quality and undercooked, defending like 10 year old school kids, and short on creativity.

In short... we look nailed on relegation fodder.

Based on the highlight you’re being abit harsh on 10 year olds
