Transfer Rumours Summer Transfer window

[TakingLeBris]

Imagine if he's been our best player all season, we need to get points our last game, and it's against Chelsea would be typical Sunderland

I would guess Chelsea preferred him getting games in the prem over a European league. He maybe would play more for a French or German side, but the value of playing premier league is what Chelsea will want. I cant see any commitments being made on game time, that is perhaps a thing of the past. Personally I find him very exciting. A bit similar to Mayenda, but he really does seem to have an aggressive streak that I like. Could very well be a 10 goal man for us - which could be crucial.

For me where he differs to Wilson and Mayenda - is positioning on incoming crosses and heading ability albeit I havent seen that much of him

 

[CR17]

We’re having a belting window so I’m going to remain confident we’ll bring another in, but if our 3 front men are Guiu, Mayenda and Isidor I’d be slightly worried. Guiu played well in the conference league but let’s remember he was playing against Shamrock Rovers and Astana. Big ask for him to lead the line when he’s got no real experience anywhere other than youth football, irregardless of how much potential he has. Hopefully I’m proven wrong!

Also, the perfect situation where a young talent has their breakthrough and explode too, I think it's a situation of, we have two strikers we don't want to displace, any striker worth their salt scoring in Europe would cost 30m+ (Josh Sargent was involved in a potnetial £21m move the other day) and we thought this lad ticks all the boxes for our system and he has something to prove

So you saw the great FA Cup win of 2026?

Yeah, he has been described by his coaches as a 'Classic 9'. His in the box movement is supposed to be good and he uses his physicality well

 

[Juan4754]

got a feeling something else is coming today by that last line and emoji…

He is good in the air - great habit of getting between centre halves.

Him his movement in the box is better than our 2s imo

 

[Millfield Maestro 1879]

Anyone in doubt watch his performance in the conference league last season. At times we were all gasping at how good he was

 

[SourPatch2]

I like Guiu. Think I would've preferred the forwards we were linked to earlier this window but he's a good alternative.

Hope this means we can splash on the CB(s) now.

 

[Bizarreknives]

Guiu or Myenda in my dream team?

I reckon they'll spend big on 2 CBs

 

[SAFC Wilks]

Guiu or Myenda in my dream team?

Yes. Both of those.

 

[Scootsie]

Guiu or Myenda in my dream team?

yes

 

[Bizarreknives]

Yes. Both of those.

Nah don’t want both, I’m guessing Guiu will play more games than Mayenda??

 

[Dave_39]

more to follow says Keith too

 

[TonyG]

Can I be the first to claim 1977 for leaving school. Marvellous feeling walking out for the last time, only bettered by leaving work for the last time.

The Year of Punk mate, and may I say the year of Tony G

ps Haway the feckin transfers man. It’s like an advent calendar this year

 

[Brainman]

I left school in 1968. Got married 11 September 1971. Possibly the worst thing that ever happened on any 9/11 ever.
Got married again on 31 July 1981.
Celebrating 44 years today.

 

[SISAO33]

Loads of chelsea fans on twitter saying he doesnt stop pressing

anyone know if hes had much of a pre season?

 

[SAFC Wilks]

Nah don’t want both, I’m guessing Guiu will play more games than Mayenda??

Depends what gets more points really. Guiu will end the season with 25 goals and 3 assists, but Mayenda will end the season with 20 assists and 10 goals. Tough one like.
