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

[Drummond]

For the most part the puns never land.

History should tell us that we're in dangerous territory these are so bad. Though it does cause some people to get a thrill, erudite posters amongst them.

[VILLA MOLE]

i have come on here to find out about new signings,  then i see all this …. leave me alone

[danno]

All these puns make me wanna scream.

He’s still a pretty young thing though Jackson.  I know it’s off the wall but I would be in favour. 

[aj2k77]

Jackson is fucking rubbish, proper barn door and banjo merchant.

[kippaxvilla2]

Instead of Ollie’s one in five we will have two in ten.

[frank black]

I remember watching him screw yet another shot wide for Chelsea and thinking to myself  ‘That’s a sorry miss , Jackson’



I’ll fetch me coat.

[Clampy]

That one doesn’t even make sense. Fucking BOOOOO.

One day in your life, you'll enjoy these puns.

Could be a thriller at the Villa Jackson, we'd need him to hit the ground running, he'd be dangerous in behind though. More pace than Watkins which Rashford showed was important to us in some games last season. Views on him do seem to be very polarised.

[Rigadon]

Signing Jackson would be a massive risk, especially if it was as a replacement for Watkins. As well as, I can get behind that I think.   

Selling anybody else from our starting 11 would be a really hard sell.

Recency bias maybe? His time at Chelsea has not gone well but prior to that he was highly regarded.

[ROBBO]

A loan with the option to buy would be a better. We would look very light up front if Watkins was out for a few weeks.

[Ads]

A loan of Jackson would probably suit both us and Chelsea, given we're in the same boat regarding SCR.

We're not really as Chelsea deferred for a year.

They haven't deferred the A list squad costs ruling which is in place for them for the next two years because they stated to UEFA they couldn't get under €5million euros this year (and agreed a higher target instead they still have to meet.)
