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

Who is reporting Watkins to Newcastle for £90m??

[Dante Lavelli]

He’d be excellent. £40M for a 22 year old that just had a superb tournament for England and loads of room to improve in front of him. The experience of playing for the league champions and how that will have developed him too.

Good player but doesn’t fit in our system IMO. Lacks the pace to play on the wing and too expensive to be Rogers’ understudy.

If we signed him we'd be training him up be the new McGinn, not on the wing or in Rogers' position.

The Bailey role. Liverpool fans complain about his pace and strength so don’t think he’s a good fit to replace either Bailey or Mcginn. Happy to be proven wrong of course.

Elliott to Villa now gathering pace.

Is it? I can see a load of links to West Ham

I heard Isaac to Liverpool for some stupid amount earlier. You never know.

Agreed he definitely needs to work on his core/glute strength to come close to displacing McGinn. Wouldn't read too much into Elliot's form for England u21s, it's kind of a false grade.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

How many league games did Elliot play for Liverpool last season, two or four? Started two games, 16 off the bench, 360 minutes total. £40m? Worst haircut in football. Looks like West Ham are desperate enough to pay that kind of fee.

[AV84]

Not that it matters but I don't get the hair thing. He seems to have naturally curly hair. What's the issue?

[Clampy]

He made 32 and 34 appearances in Klipperty's last two seasons. 92 appearances altogether so it's not as if he's hardly played.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Sure but I'm buying not selling. 360 minutes! Here's £25m and be thankful.

It looks more like a Scouse perm. Brian Clough would understandably have told him to get a haircut.
