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

I would like to see two more Goalkeepers coming in before August 16 and Torres moved on so that defence is stronger.

Smart of us this summer to realise that signing foreigners with no PL ecperience is a poor strategy for the first team, hence not signing any.

Like Ozcan, you make a good point, a future prospect but not ready hence punted out on loan .

The longer this summer goes on the more Lerner style vibes I feel. My rational head says that's rubbish and we are just fucked by poorly designed rules, but it just feels so flat.

It could be worse, we could have our best striker being unsettled in a 'will they, won't they' saga by the Red Scouse, and been beaten 4-0 by the Scottish Champions a couple of weeks ago.

I'm glad we have Newcastle first day of the season while they're in (relative) turmoil. Actually, I wish this game was away. It would be our best chance in years to win at Sid Jameses.

My dear fellow they would horse us.

Indeed, I think I'd rather go to Old Trafford than Sid James.

You know fine well that Isaac will end up staying, signing a new deal in the days before kick off and show his commitment to the club by scoring a first half hat trick against us.

We still have a strong first X1, Martinez suspension aside, for the opener v Newcastle in 2 weeks. Bench seems very weak though

Bizot, Cash, Konsa, Mings, Digne, Kamara, Tielemans, McGinn, Ramsey, Rogers, Watkins

Subs from - Gauci, Garcia, Bogarde, Torres, Maatsen, Onana, Barkley, Bailey, Buendia, Malen.

Bomb squad - Donk, Moreno, SIJ, Dobbin - all likely gone by then?
