The Transfer Thread 2024/25 - Everything Not Wolves

[Deutsch Wolf]

Albert Adomah to Walsall, should still be quite good at L2 level.

Hojbjerg going to Marseille reminded me of one of the best shoehorns of footballer speak into normal conversation I've ever heard.

Calafiori going to Arsenal.

Calafiori going to Arsenal.

For less than futsal Max?

For less than futsal Max?

I did see something earlier that Captain Wow is the fourth most expensive uncapped player ever, and two of those above him are Olise and Yoro who France will probably cap fairly soon.

I like Smith-Rowe but that's a big risk at that price given his injury record

 

[Wilf Wolf]

A lot of eggs in a notoriously flimsy basket.

Obviously not like for like, but I'd rather gamble on ESR ar £35m than Kilman at £40m, the ceiling is so much higher. If the commitment was say £20m and the rest of the up to is incentives then it's still a good deal

 

[Carrotdude]

He was fit most of last season which seems to be forgotten, just wasn’t selected

Higher ceiling and without his injury record would probably go for more than Kilman. We face same situation with Neto, sky is the ceiling but his injury record makes it a gamble.

Still 17?

 

[Del Woppio]

I'd have been all over him tbh. Loan Bueno to Norwich, get him a full season of men's football which he really needs. Ease in Sessegnon to manage his body back to full time football and see how much of that potential is still in there

 

[lemonjelly]

Wonder to what extent the ESR deal enables arsenal to open their wallet a bit?

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Mad to think ESR would be Arsenal's record sale when you consider some of the players that have been through there over the years but they seem to have a really bad tendency to lose some of their highest profile players for nothing.

We may well have been in for him, but he's very much a London boy.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Don't think Sessegnon has ever looked good at LB/LWB. Abysmal when we won at Spurs under Lage.

 

[White Wolf]

Feels like with Sessegnon a lot of the initial hype was because he was supposed to be a left-back but in reality regularly played left-wing for Fulham. Many saw the stats of how many goals he supposedly scored as a FB and thought he was a supreme attacking defender, whereas in reality he looks very shaky there.

Still disappointed for Neves he didn't win player of the year in 2018. Miles better than Sessegnon.
