Transfers Summer 2019 transfer thread

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

It's not Llorente the player who is the actual loss, it's the fact that he was the only actual backup striker last year and his involvement was crucial in our CL run
If backup striker was a priority we would have re-signed Llorente. Part of the challenge last year was that our complete lack of midfield gutted our AM options. Eriksen and Dele were deep all the time, so we didn't have nearly as many strike options up front. It's very different now.
 
That’s fucking retarded, seriously.
That is a big indicator to me of how many of our fans are getting more concerned with the finance side rather than the playing side. Similar to many more supportive of levy than the players & manager. Better to lose 1 of our best players asap just so we can get more £££. Which we are usually stubborn at spending anyway.

I just disagree with the clubs' priorities in this question, I know the reasoning behind it, I just disagree.

I remember when football used to be about a nice greasy breakfast, a few pints of piss weak watered down lager, trading insults with opposition fans, watching the game and a few pints after the game to either celebrate or drown your sorrows.

Now we’re discussing image rights, what the fuck is it all coming to.?

Bring back PROPER football..

Funny how people are saying that we had an average window now just because we didn't sign Dybala. If you told me after the UCL final that we would sign Ndombele, Sessegnon and Lo Celso I would've been more than happy.

If the club belonged to the supporters like most are I could certainly understand that view. Now the Club is owned by a company that knows what they are doing
