The January 2025 Transfer Thread

[Kenny]

I am keen on being promoted to CEO before the end of month. Not an easy move but still, worth a go isn't it.

Another to file in the we tried box

Assume he’s an out and out DM? If he isn’t he’s got a shocking goalscoring record. If he is, is that really the type of midfielder we need?

Seems very similar to Manu.

I know I'm an outlier here, but I don't see what Andre brings. Perhaps I've been to the wrong games, but against both Bournemouth and Chelsea he just got bullied and has a limited passing range. I think he'd suit a team that has more of the ball and just wants someone to screen the defence, not a team that is under the cosh more often than not. Lemina who isn't Lemina to play alongside Gomes would improve us

Haven't seen him at Betis tbf but he has never really looked the part for the US.

Not even with that tash?!

Seen lots of people suggest that Andre should just sit in front of the defence (almost as a 6) and pass it to two other mids (or 8’s) to do their thing. If that’s the case, from the stats alone (as I’ve never seen him play), Cardoso doesn’t seem like that kind of player?

Allegedly, we're after Eric Garcia now.

He was ace in the Grateful Dead...

It's January 24th and we've signed 1 player. It's not like we've given up over 50 goals this season and sitting in 17th/18th in the table

Chill. We're about to spend all our budget on a midfielder we don't need.

If it was ever a real link then RAN to Utd is off the table

Dorgu has been on their radar all season

 

[1986]

Just because he's heading to Old Trafford does not mean that he is any good .

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

if it means RAN isnt that is good

Our recruitment team, Hobbs, Shi & all involved are an absolute embarrassment.

Dunno what you’re expecting them to do when they’ve shown strong interest. Nothing else they can do.

Not sure if this is genuinely serious or sarcastic?

 

[The Bear]

Dunno what you’re expecting them to do when they’ve shown strong interest. They just can’t win.

No point showing interest if you're not willing to go anywhere near the price quoted. Which is what I guess happened.

Betis - Cardoso? We want €25m up front for him. Plus some addons.
Us - Would you accept €10m over 5 years + €5m of addons?
Betis - No not even close.
Us - €12m + addons?
Betis - Cardoso is staying at Betis.
