The Summer 2025 Transfer Window Thread

[Quirkafleeg]

Wolves is turning into National Lampoons. Chevvy Chase will rock up soon.

Got to be at the very least an obligation to buy you'd think. Anybody that's watched him play football for a year isn't going to take the option.

On JSL - I'd take the £65m today tbh, he's barely worth half that. I know he scored goals last season, but well, see above. I'm fairly convinced that last season will be the pinnacle of his career numbers wise. Going from Isak to him is a massive downgrade and a big change stylistically

Absolutely awful idea to loan with an option. Take whatever fee we can get and let him be Palace’s problem next summer.

I like Jørgen but he's definitely replaceable for a normal club and I'm not convinced he's exactly what Vítor wants from his #9.

It's the kind of outgoing transfer that wouldn't be an issue in a normal window but there's been way too much churn already and the Summer is already over. Ornstein's tweet mentioned that he wouldn't push for a move so I don't think we should be selling him. Hope he gets a similar or greater goals return this season and then sell him next summer, there will always be a market for players who score goals at this level.

We are very negative about our players.

 

[Quirkafleeg]

Losing Strand Larsen now would make sure we are relegated. So little time to find a replacement, hell are we not looking for somebody to compete with JSL because we can't trust Sasa to last long. Absolute disaster.

 

[C.L.D]

JSL cost the club ~£26M, so taking £65M+ seems like a no brainer but who has confidence they'd find someone before deadline for similar to his original value? They flubbed it when Kilman was sold.

Saşa didn't deserve the abuse he got on the weekend but he's not EPL standard or an easy fit into JSL's role...if he's fit at all.

What abuse?

 

[Jinky]

Fans from other clubs have an inflated opinion of Hwang, probably because he was cheap and knocked in a few goals for their FPL team a year or so ago.

I don't want us to sell JSL and I don't trust us to get a silly figure for him from Newcastle. And even if we did get an outrageous bid of, say £60m (we won't), I then don't trust us to replace him. I would want us to sign his replacement before he goes if that's the case, rather than be left without no-one.

 

[Jinky]

What abuse?

I read he took some flak from the South Bank, but I'm not quite sure why? Proper knuckle-dragger vibes if true.

You trust them to spend that!?

 

[Tredman]

Didn't see or hear anything. He warmed up at the NB end too.

 

[Quirkafleeg]

The Southbank had only one agenda on Saturday and that was celebrate the life of Diogo. I'm very sure non of the abuse ever happened.

 

[Quirkafleeg]

He even put his number 18 shirt with his name covered up in front of The Southbank. These Chinese Whispers can get to fuck.

I was hoping there was nothing in them (but weird how people would make something like that up), because Sasa is a good guy.

I wouldn't trust them to wipe their own arses tbf, but it's the right thing to do at that sort of money. I know there's not long left in the window but we should have a shortlist for every position and be able to move pretty quickly, it's been on the cards for a month

Exactly. Whilst he is not worth £65m, premier league survival is worth more than his value.

My bad, wasn’t the SB. Was the BW! (IF true)

Can't have been very loud as I sit in that section and didn't hear anything.
