The Summer 2025 Transfer Window Thread

[prawnking]

Hobbs and GON truly shafted our GK cohort

 

[Tyrannosaurus Dan]

Here is your deadline day, missed out on main targets signing

The only thing I remember about him last season was his back pass that gifted Sunderland an 88th minute winner in the play off first leg

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Hes been heavily linked with Wolfsburg.

 

[Jinky]

He'll go on loan to a Championship club on deadline day.

And we won’t have time to replace him so will be left with League2Bentz as our back up (and he will almost certainly have to play in the PL at some point as Sa regularly has games he just can’t feature in).

All part of the plan, I’m sure.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

There is some mitigation though. You could argue that we can't really afford to be paying four senior keepers (four keepers, Jeremy, four? That's insane) plus whatever Tom King is when only one will play. So Johnstone needs to go before we sign another one, but you can only sell what someone will buy.

The issue is signing Subbuteo Sam in the first place, the big stiff bastard.

Subbuteo keeper after you’ve knelt on him, snapped his legs off and had to blue tack him back on a bit shorter.

Doesn't having 4 homegrown keepers help with the quota? Lots of clubs have players in their squads purely for their HG benefit who are never going to play.

 

[darlowolf64]

I'd rather we had home grown players who can actually contribute

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

We're allowed 17 non-HG players

Sa

Agbadou
Toti
S Bueno
Mosquera
Wolfe

André
J Gomes
Bellegarde
Munetsi

Lopez
Hwang
Arias
R Gomes

Strand Larsen
Kalajdzic

16 there (does Fer Lopez count? He's not long turned 21), I think Hoever is HG, H Bueno definitely is and so is Doc, Lima is too young to count, we don't/shouldn't need superfluous HG players especially if Hwang goes, no point paying for people who will never ever feature.

Signing good HG players to add to the above is a priority, signing dross to bulk out numbers doesn't work, we don't get an extra foreigner if we do. You can have 17 non-HG and 8 HG, you can have 17 non-HG and 4 HG, you can have 17 HG and 0 HG. The 17 never moves.

Yeah, López doesn't count for this season.

 

[The Saturday Boy]

I thought you had to name 8 HG players but not the case, we only had a squad of 22 last year and not one of our registered under 21s made any significant contribution.

 

[Celtiña]

Delay transfers markets not is a good idea to made a good season....

In the last min all team are crazy to close the market, and turn 1º-2º option to 3º-5º

Im sorry for you guys, your lose for sure vs Celta this next game.

STOP FAFFING ABOUT AND OFFER MORE... Wait a minute...

 

[GoldFlagFlyingHigh]

Jon Rowe is a serious option we are looking at, again. May be available soon from Marseille.

 

[Stan Hullis]

I would approve of that.
