Summer Transfer Window 2025 | Official Thread

[stubbo-admin]

May as well get going with this since with Sullivan at the helm, season ticket renewals slow, and the football vacuum to commence, this will soon be all the "news" there is.

Can Potter and MacCauley pull multiple rabbits out of the hat, or will Sullivan 'try really hard' with all of them before grabbing a few aging bargains from Big Willie Salthouse?

Window this close season comes in two parts:

Part 1: 1st June to 10th June
Part 2: 16th June to 1st September

The problem we have is that we see what happens when Paqueta doesn't get his move, and that is he rarely puts in a decent performance for two seasons. So, if that happens again this season we'll end having to carry him, with a weaker team than before.

[fraser]

Fucking sick of all this circus shit.

I don't think many would disagree with that.. 

The ex message just sounds like more teeing up, more noise... With the added 'no time to replace him' 

Surely he goes, surely for less than we've said we wanted and surely without replacing 

[Massive Attack]

Someone's Agent is feeding the troll though. Sulleys Salthouse, Paquetas, Aguerds, someone's giving him shit to say.

[stubbo-admin]

Fucking sick of all this circus shit.

Romano is basically a rent-a-post influencer these days. Gets paid a fortune to tweet shit and is all now just part of the tapping up procession.

Paqueta Update7mWe are trying to get clarity from a number of sources to give you the accurate picture of what is actually going on with Paqueta. At the moment we have only spoken to two West Ham sources and they deny that they have accepted a bid and are quite annoyed with the reporting of such a thing from Fabrizio Romano. The club are denying that they wish to sell the player and have always maintained if they did it would be for no less than £60m (I guess the overall loan package could be around £60m) all in and that replacements would need to be lined up, which I don’t believe they are. Whether Paqueta wants the deal or not is unclear and I guess this could be the deciding factor.  As it stands I don’t think a bid has been accepted and as far as I know he will still be available for the game tomorrow.  Things can change dramatically in football so we will keep you updated.

Our next step will probably be 

Lucas it's an attractive proposition for you but we can't let you go because they're not offering enough put in a request and we can make this happen

Just seen the below, paving the way for we really wanted him to stay but you can't keep a player... Blah. Blah.. 

Kudus put in a request apparently but after we admitted we wanted to sell, why would he put in a request then... 

I agree regarding the Board which is why I said I don't trust them either. Paqueta and Aguerd wanting to bail out are convenient excuses for them to still sell them. 

Shambles of a Club.  

Yet he's travelled and hasn't agitated.... We don't want to sell... They have no money... Yet here we are.. I'm not saying if offered the move he wouldn't want to go.. Who could blame him, but I doubt very much he's seekef it out... It would just be a simple no from us, but all this noise is setting a pathway to his exit... It's so fucking obvious... He's going cheap, we're not allowing it, we don't want it... But he's pushing.. It's all bollocks,.. Kudus was similar... He wasn't wanted..

Can you imagine the kind of nonsense Bowen has had to put up with as Captain surrounded by so many gutless wankers in the Squad as he has to keep firefighting and wiping their arses all the time in the side...

We are so blessed we have him. Not once has agitated for a move and he's the one that really deserves it the most.

[fraser]

fuck knows what is actually going on 

It's very clear Paqueta wants out. Proper cսnt after backing him whilst we sit bottom of the table. Potter don't deserve that nonsense to be fair to him, a pair of self serving shitcunts demanding to leave. 

Really... Not to most it isn't, I love how everyone thinks Sullivan is a massive cսnt till it suits them. If we don't want to sell him and Villa have no money we would just nip it in the bud straight away.... There would be an official announcement stating he's not for sell... Then it would be up to him to stay or play up.. None of that has happened, we want to sell him... 

[El Scorchio]

Aston Villa have their own PSR problems hence why they want to loan Lucas Paqueta for a season then pay a fee next summer over a number of years. Combined fee well under our valuation. Villa and agents playing games and trying to turn the players head but he has travelled to Nottingham. West Ham insist they have no interest in selling Paqueta at this late stage and will do everything they can to resist the latest challenge


If he does go it isn't because he asked to, we're really trying.. Honest..

Lucas Villa want to talk to you are you interested? 

 

 

We are just bending over for anyone who clicks their fingers. It’s pathetic. Seems like we’re actively pushing players out of the door so much we’re offering unbelievably favourable terms and costing ourselves millions. Kudus, Alvarez, now Paqueta. 

Sullivan wants his piece of silver to pay his debts. ‘Saving us’ with new signings my arse. He’s not spending, just spinning. He’s probably going to end up  net saving money this summer.

Only going by the info released, it seems to be the player pushing it. I don't trust the Board though. All stinks of horseshit but don't blame Potter for it if that bit is true.

backtrack!!

Paquetá has accepted #AVFC move, keen on project and ready to join.


After we fully backed him as a Club (Supporters) he shouldn't be looking for any move right now, especially as we are in the shit. BS are one thing who deserve their own share of the shit but this don't sit well with me having to put up with 18 months of bollocks. And no one will convince me he didn't do it, he just lobbed his phone in the Thames so they couldn't prove it. 

Yup can’t disagree with that. We stood by him and accepted poor performances under three managers for mitigating circumstances. Fuck all loyalty in the modern game. Rats trying to leave a sinking ship which they helped the rot take hold of. 

[Massive Attack]

Aguerd is a cսnt and can fuck off, hope he snaps his leg as soon as he leaves 

[honky cat]

We've got a lot to do in 2 days . . .
And we're still lumbered with the likes of cornet and guido to try and shift. Even by west hams standards its turning into a shambles.

If we are genuinely using this money for replacements I’m okay with that.

the cynic in me thinks Fernandes & the frog are the Paqueta money.

That's what I was thinking too.

[Mad Ferret]

No way we don’t now go and sign a 10.
