Transfers Summer 2020 Transfer Thread

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Is anyone actually surprised with this hasbeen washed up manager? Like, everyone knew what we was getting into, the second we appointed Mourinho. A poisonous presence in the dressing room. Same guy who nearly destroyed Hazard's career at Chelsea. Same guy who tried to destroy Ronaldo and Ramos at RM. Same guy who wanted to swap Martial for Willian. Same guy who tried destroying Pogba at United. The list is endless, and yet people are somehow surprised with the treatment Tanguy has been getting. A lot would say when things went south this season, Pochettino wasn't the answer; that may very well be true, but fuck Mourinho certainly ain't no fucking answer. I'd rather have Roberto Martinez or Rafa Benitez than this washed-up excuse of a manager.
So many dumb statements in one post. Give one of the most dedicated and successful managers of all time a little credit. Pogba still only plays when he wants and has been shown up by their new signing. Some decisions I can agree with you and be critical of Mourinho but letting go of the odd good player and criticism because he wants and expects more out of Tottenhams biggest signing is not one. His football is boring so at that it’s true. Ndombele is not the coaches fault, Poch had same issues, our scouts should of done their homework
 
Embarrassing stuff from an enic mouthpiece Airfixx Airfixx trying to convince us Ndombele real value is 40m.

The valuations posted do not even take factors like age, potential, contract length into consideration. Those valuations are highly unstable and incosistent as they base purely on players current form.

Ndombele has barely had a chance to play regularly in a team that has just had it worst season in 10 years, while Brozovic has consisntently started for a team that has just had it best season in 8/9 years, yet both of their valuations are almost the same.

Imagine if Ndombele has a 9/10 season in a successful team next season, wouldn't his value shoots up to 100m+? How much would Brozovic value decrease next season if he stays injured for 70%of the season? 20m? 15m?
I love this logic

Airfixx is an Enix mouth piece because he is arguing that their record marquee signing is a huge flop

Give your head a shake
 
Schooled their midfield twice with Lyon last season, delusional to say he wouldn't get even 20 mins in a Pep team.
Another 200 iq take

Guess Scott McTominay is an 80m player too since he scored and dominated MCity a few months ago too.

But I guess you are just more knowledgeable and intelligent than Manchester city's sub par scout and recruitment team. Oh and Jose and ours too.

Theres a difference between putting an excellent defensive performance in midfield against superior opposition and outclassing opposition midfield with sheer class class and elegance.

Deep down I know that even you realize you are not being objective and oversentimental. It's OK. He flopped, it happens.

Guy's fat as a pig and can't even run for a full half. It's a joke.
 
Warning: I have seen maybe 90 minutes of this gent this year, but I am sorry, we need to keep Ndombele and build the team around him. Skriniar is good, but I don't think he is a VVD signing. Ndombele has the ability to create havoc in the middle to final third. He is someone I build my team around.

I would be happy with Skriniar. But I think we are screaming for a DM that will allow Ndombele to shine. He really is good guys. He would do so much for GLC and Kane.

How can you build your team around a guy that has spent his whole career being too lazy to be in shape? That after getting a life altering, massive deal was too lazy to come into his new team in shape? When given a 2 month break with nothing to do but get in shape after being called out for being lazy, was too lazy to get in shape?

I know people will try and spin this as a Jose thing, but Jose didn't cut him from his 4th division French side because he was too lazy when he was 19. This has been a pattern of his for his short career and even when he has every motivation in the world to change it he chooses not to.

I mean it would be one thing if he had the talent to act like this, maybe teams would be willing to over look some of his laziness and find a use for him but he has never shown to be close to good enough to overlook the crap he brings, let alone overlook it to build a team around.

I don't see how Spurs can afford to waste a spot and money on this loser when they could get a player that could actually help the team. We don't have enough talent and we don't have an owner willing to spend enough to take the chance that this is the time that Ndombele will finally put the effort in to get in shape and that if by some miracle he actually does it that this mythical talent that he supposedly has but has never shown will be there ready to help us win.

That is two massive gambles that most likely results in us playing Winks or Sissoko in the MF next season while asking GLC to create everything once again. If we are lucky we may be able to match our 6th place this year again but I am not sure many of us want to watch a repeat of last season.
 
Weird how much hatred you have for a most talented midfielder in our squad.

Fat as pig, ffs seriously?
I really don't hate him

I'm just honest and objective. It's just fascinating how he has had documented weight issues since his teenage years yet people are acting as if he is just being scapegoated and mismanaged.

He lacks discipline, is overweight, hides on the pitch and and if any other player had acted like he had they'd get SLAUGHTERED.

Winks, Sissoko et have done 100x more this year and cost so much less, yet Ndombele gets all the excuses. He should provide MORE because of his talent and cost, not less.
 
How is he a fucikg flop when he has barely had a chance to prove himself?



He barely had a chance to prove himself because he was too lazy to get in shape and then too lazy to make plays in the limited time he was able to stay on the field.

When you don't play because of how lazy you are and how much you suck that makes you a flop.

That's what the dinosaur has made you believe, fat lazy and cannot keep himself fit to play football matches.

The truth is, he's being mismanaged by a hasbeen footballing neanderthal who has no clue how to get the best out of a talent like him.

What does Jose have to do with him being cut when he was in France 4 years before he even came to Spurs?

What does Jose have to do with him showing up out of shape this season when Poch was our manager before he even came to Spurs?

Did Jose know way back then that he would be the manager of Spurs in 2020 and Ndombele would come here and come up with some convoluted plan to sabotage Ndombele's training back then so that we he had him 4 years later he could use it against him?

What about in every single game that I watched Ndombele in and he failed to run, stood still instead of tackling players, had his hands on his knees out of breath before and after Jose came? Was that Jose again in some weird plan forcing Ndombele to put no effort in? Even in the games in which Ndombele was clearly dogging it before Jose came?

That is a crazy plan by Jose that seems to have very little upside for him.

What, Poch?

If this is the coping strategy that allows you to function, fine.

But if a professional athlete can't stay below 40 bmi.. That's on him. Guy runs about like an obese duck since Poch and it's Mourinhos fault.... lmao. And I hate Mou lol.

Guy got kicked from his academy team due to weight issues. Was Mou coaching him over what's app during those days or what?
 
Good lord, imagine this forum without Sissoko and Ndombele at Spurs...

He’s a shameless bot who literally goes around clicking disagree on anti-Levy posts. Might even be a paid WUM looking to plant ENIC stories on social media and alter their perception
