So far the signings have been good but not great. They are of the ability to push for a start but not first on the sheet. That's what we need and fast as corkey says. First on the sheet gk, am and striker straight away. Happy to blow 100 on those three. got to be real prem quality.

The big game changers are coming soon. Let the other teams blow their budget while we keep patient.

Right, because as is always shown out Leeds Utd only sign proper footballers is it MOT? .
Others Blow the budget whilst we wait until it's only bargain basement bang average left, mores like .
I do believe we will sign more, but I don't agree with that approach for sure.

Were we actually even interested in any of the players the likes of Sunderland have signed, or was it just all media talk.
Over the last couple of seasons Farke and the 49ers have shown their worth in scouting quality players, so have faith people.
Jaka is 100% a starter and will play a huge part in strengthening our defence. The other two maybe not, although I think Seb has potential to be a starter if his fitness holds up.
I agree with MoTagain2 that bigger names will come. Let's stop comparing ourselves to the likes of Sunderland. Yes they may have signed a few slightly more high-profile players so far, but from a base point of comparing our respective Championship squads, we're miles ahead.

Thanks, Danny.
We are looking at the season ahead, 49ers have a five year plan. If Sunderland blow their load and are relegated they're screwed. We should know, we did it 20 years ago!
Tanaka was a bargain bin signing. I have no complaints with rummaging in that bin.

thats the question isn't it? i'm sure if there is a player we absolutely want we would get them.
03 Jul 2025 13:35:33
So there are no players we want Alf? Just hand me downs. Make sense mate.

We wanted Diarra and that’s a fact. We didn’t get him another fact.
Chris has it spot on.
The 49ers were on the board when we blew millions on dross in Radz final year and have little experience in the game. I don’t have much faith in Evans and Underwood either to build the squad if I’m being honest. Hopefully I’m wrong?
Next week or two are vital imo even though the window is open until September.
