Summer Transfer Window 2025 | Official Thread

Post stubbo-admin »


May as well get going with this since with Sullivan at the helm, season ticket renewals slow, and the football vacuum to commence, this will soon be all the "news" there is.

Can Potter and MacCauley pull multiple rabbits out of the hat, or will Sullivan 'try really hard' with all of them before grabbing a few aging bargains from Big Willie Salthouse?

If we can get £60m for Paqueta from any club (including Spurs) in time to get a replacement, we should do it. But I suspect we won't and he will go in January for peanuts

All we need now is a manager to show them which direction the opposition goal is.

Still think Paqueta needs competition as he still tends to make too many mistakes despite his flashes of brilliance.
He'll get plenty of that at Spurs

What do you mean another bit of good business? Where was the previous good business? 
Diouf and KWP.

Also, shipping out wasters such as Kudus and Alvarez.

I'm sure the same was said by Brighton fans when they signed Caicedo, MacAllister, Cucurella, Baleba, Bissouma etc etc

Sometimes you just have to go for it.
Yes we do. I’m all for moves like this. It’s exactly the sort of player we should be going in for. Ideally we are spotting them a year or two sooner and spending less but this is a good positive move if it comes off.

Hopefully this gets done but we still need two more midfielders 
Plus a centre half
And a striker under 33
Chop chop!

Who knows if he is good but is young & a bit of a unit who presumably can get around the pitch

Massive Attack" wrote: 26 Aug 2025, 12:23 Controversial question maybe but is Magassa good? Never heard of him so intrigued to know what he's like. At least we're buying someone! 😲
 
 
Here's his STATS: https://fbref.com/en/players/dfc5d4fa/S ... ou-Magassa

Compare that to: 

Alvarez: https://fbref.com/en/players/8b3ab7ad/Edson-Alvarez
JWP: https://fbref.com/en/players/3515d404/James-Ward-Prowse
Soucek: https://fbref.com/en/players/6613c819/Tomas-Soucek
Potts: https://fbref.com/en/players/86bf27f0/Freddie-Potts

He's seemingly an upgrade at 6 on all of the above.  I'd suggest Sangare looks better than he does, so getting both would be useful.

Sangare: https://fbref.com/en/players/bced0375/Ibrahim-Sangare
