Summer 2025 Transfer Window - hopes, speculation, rumours etc.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Ramsey has had 1 big injury and then loads of complications arising from it.

Despite hating the little shit that gave JJ that injury, I reckon Francisco Conceição would be perfect on our right hand side and from what I'm reading Juventus aren't going to take up the option of keeping him. He doesn't want to go back to Porto. The numbers look realistic too, down from €45m to €30m. He may be small but like Mazrim, he's hard as nails.

Favourite away player all season for me. Thought he was outstanding against us and would love us to buy him.

I don't see Malen as being the standard we need. As an option or for resting players sure but we need to be targeting better quality on the right/up-front. I know Jarrod Bowen is highly unlikely but he's the one player I would chuck the budget at. Goals, assists, movement, great attitude. He's wasting his time at that shitshow.

He's played less than 300 minutes for us, and scored 3 goals. Over a season that sort of goals per minute record would have him at well over 30. I know it's not that simple but he's done really well in most of his appearances so far so probably needs a little more time before writing him off.

I think Malen will be a great asset, looks good to me.  Bowen is about to marry into East End/Essex royalty, he won't be leaving that shitshow sadly.

He's a tenacious little shit too who I think would easily adapt to the PL. A non-Granny looking Anthony Gordon is the first thing that springs to mind. He also shares the same agent as Emi, Jorge Mendes. Why not?

[Dante Lavelli]

Is he quick, as RW is the obvious spot to add much needed pace.

Shit off a shovel quick. He ticks pretty much all boxes including defensive duties. Maybe Dougie needs to have a word.

I may despise the little fucker but he’s absolute quality and therefore I think he’ll be Champs League bound.

A few weeks ago Kamara was talked about as irreplaceable. Personally I still think we’d be mad moving him, Ramsey or Roger’s on.

Ideally of course we wouldn't but the tea leaves are suggesting at least one of the big guns will have to leave. He's a big PSR plus and does miss a lot of games in comparison to other big guns like Tielemans, Rogers, Watkins, Martinez, Konsa. Onana isn't the answer as a replacement.

Ramsey has many more gears left him. Areas of his game he needs to work on for sure but huge potential. Not sure Emery is fully convinced though. Rashford, McGinn, Rogers all got plenty of minutes on that flank, even when Ramsey was available.

I think it'll be Watkins, Martinez and Bailey that leave.  Not sure why we'd even consider flogging the 2nd best holding midfielder in the PL, or Ramsey for that matter.   We don't need to sell everybody do we?

[Dante Lavelli]

If you're right Rigadon, then we're arguably selling at their peak value so, whilst cold hearted, it makes good business sense.

Sell Watkins, Martinez and Bailey for a combined £100-120m and buy Jonathan David on a free (comparable wages), Garcia/Kellegher or the French goalie for £30m and a reserve for £10m (should be saving on wages).  That leaves a war chest to go big on a Right Winger.  And probably a bit left over.

[PaulWinch again]

Maybe - but that is a significant loss of experience and as least a bit of a punt about adaptation to the Premier League

I think that’s what we’re doing, and would’ve done regardless of CL v EL.  The only difference is that we might’ve been able to do some sexier loans if we had CL to offer.  What evs. We shall see.

Aston Villa are set to make a move and submit a bid for Juventus Striker Dusan Vlahovic in the next few days/

Aston Villa first made contact with Juventus last Match to sound out a potential deal and our now set to follow up on that interest and launch a bid.

He has only had one good season, but the fact that he plays for Juventus and we have good links with them makes me think

[AV84]

Again with this guy. I don't want him. I won't be best pleased if we sign him.
