The Summer 2025 Transfer Window Thread

He hasn’t necessarily earned any respect from me.

As a player, absolutely.

As a person, absolutely not.

I’m sure he’ll be torn up about this

He's started a support group with Munetsi

No way. Sport is fickle as Hell. When an opportunity comes, you have to take it.

Top managers have dealt with far worse than Matheus as far as his “behavioral reputation” goes. I don’t think they’ll care about that at all.

If he goes he goes. But he’s earned our respect, IMO.

I generally agree, but what specific opportunity has come up? Opportunity to leg it as soon as his profile increases is really what you're talking about. Which is what the club actively pushes, so we can't be surprised.

He keeps missing it though

Seems a foregone conclusion that some club involved in European competition will be in for him. Not sure which club specifically will matter much to him.

A lot of talk Isak is off, can see Cunha going to Newcastle.

Then there is Forest, who if they sell MGW will have no issues with PSR.

And obviously there is Arsenal, United and Chelsea who may roll the dice, particularly if their main target (Isak) isn't achieved?

That bolded sentence had me very confused at first. In my head I was "Isak to Newcastle? He's already there man!"

Ha. Yes. Incredibly poorly worded. Written like a man that expects everyone to know exactly what he is thinking.

Lots of chatter on the net that Man. Utd are very interested in Cunha

They just need to fire all remaining staff to make room in the wage budget

I thought he wanted to challenge for titles?

Won’t be getting many there…..

Any fringe players worth taking in px?

 

[Lupo]

They hardly have any main players worth taking let alone fringe players

 

[Kenny]

Most of their players leave and remember they can play again.

I like that as a power play

 

[Alan]

Am I misremembering something very similar being said by a manager just for us to sell the player that same week?

Lopetegui and Raul. He was being disingenuous though
