Transfer Rumours The “What the F**k’s the point in another transfer window thread- Winter 2025 Transfer thread

Ah sure. Convenient that the case result won’t be until after a January window, during which City will spend at least £150m. How fortunate.

 

Chelsea pay £50m for Nkunku. He then goes on to look bang average and doesn’t really play. Jan ‘25, Man U and Bayern are quoted £70m.

Wtf.

 

More fool them if they actually pay it then.

I suppose Chelsea may be upping the price to come out on top in the Garnacho deal. Bayern probably just caught up in the nonsense

 

Bayern were allegedly in for him first, but put off by the price (obvs).

 

I can see Garnacho going to Chelsea for 70m and Nkunku going to Manu for the same. Both help each other out in terms of the stupid PSR rules.

 

So Miggy out for 10m and Semih Kilicsoy in for 15m.

That would be good business.

 

Semih Kılıçsoy is a striker and not a right winger?

 

He can be deployed as a RW and can also play the number 10 position.

 

Fair enough, never heard of him and never seen him play

 

I think he’s a young prospect. But playing well in a poor team.

I think we should be aiming for more experience right now mind.

 

Kinda sad to see Almirons demise in the end, but the standards are increasing dramatically and Murphy really I owe a huge apology because his games now at the required level.

I'm pleased Miggy got that send off because he came into a **** club and tried with every ounze of his being during a difficult and important time in the club's history.

 

Murphy's having his career purple patch currently - goals and assists consistently this season, if he keeps it up then he'll keep his place in the team but it won't last forever...

Miggy - fully agree, tried, smiled, no issues with the guy, 100% effort!

 

The thing is Murphy has that rare connection with the striker so wouldn't change that at all right now.

 

Yeah him and Isak seem telepathic atm, but lets not forget the three seasons prior to this he had 8 goals and 11 assists in 90 appearances - this year he's at 3 + 8 in 22.

 

Take a look at those 90 appearances and see how many sub appearances he made and thus his many minutes he's actually played

 

Wasn't playing well enough (scoring/assisting) to start games, now he is - just showing he's in his purple patch.

 

It's a rare thing though and as long as they are both fit and playing that won't change.

 

With his goals and assists now, he should have a good enough 'highlights reel' to look like a £80m player to the likes of Manure. Certainly more effective than Antony.

 

Apparently, according to Sky Germany reporter Patrick Berger, Johan Bakayoko has just rejected a contract extension at PSV. As his current contract runs out in 2026, they are suggesting that PSV will now accept bids of £21m for the player, before his value plummets. We should be all over that, if there is any accuracy to the report.

 

I'm which case fair value sale to SA. He'll take it for his team
