Transfers The Summer Transfer Edging Thread 2025

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Can people stop going on about Wharton. Absolute no chance he leaves Palace this summer and I wouldn’t be surprised if Liverpool, City or Chelsea have already tapped him up for a move next summer
 
Where's Shadydan Shadydan
...Ahh. here he is.. redrafting his "Letter of apolgy to Levy" for us all to sign in the morning

Sneaky feeling he might end up losing his password again for a bit

Which would be very unfortunate as this place is nothing without his regular pearls of wisdom
 
This is not on MGW. If we don't get him, it's on us

No...... unfortunately we were up against big bully Marinakis and more importantly this guy who is their Chairman, Nicolas Randall KC.

We had no chance
 
There's no coherent plan.

2.5 weeks until the Super Cup and 3 weeks until the PL starts and it's looking like Kudus will be the only change to our starting XI after finishing 17th. Maybe Palhinha gets done next week now that the MGW saga is wrapped up but I wouldn't bet on it.

No idea why we didn't sign Eze in June.
 
Where was this energy last season when you were scapegoating Ange every second you had free? Instead of us now debating the Ange pull we're now seeing instances like this 😆. Guess there's no argument to be had now this time at least 🤷🏻
Ange was good for picking up the phone and getting players to join.

This is just tragic. Was Frank whispering down the phone to him or what? MGW changed his mind anyway whatever happened. Imagine the greek gangster was behind it but still an awful look from our side. Utterly pathetic. Lange like a rabbit in the headlights
 
My head is gone a bit ngl.

We’ve cut Frank at the knees before he even starts the job. This club is nothing short of an embarrassment at every turn. Im honestly disgusted to support a club ran by Levy. I have lost any bit of remaining hope I had in this season.

Paulinha is an opportunistic signing that anyone with eyes can see doesn’t fill our biggest need in MF

If we sign him, it’s even more evidence that there isn’t a plan
 
This deal was dead to me about a week and a half ago. So I'm past being annoyed at the player not coming..

What I'm not past being annoyed at is that we've so obviously been idle and frozen for the past 2 weeks or so, waiting for some kind of conclusion.

What I'm not past being annoyed at is that we allowed ourselves to be bantered. When the deal was obviously off, you leak to your mouthpieces that you're pulling out of the deal. You're moving on. "Too much hassle, bigger fish to fry". You do not let the club become a prop for the owner at Forest to stand on and claim a victory.
