January 2022 - Transfer Window

[Sir Archibald Crooks]

I would have no qualms with Conte walking if we don’t improve the squad

I honestly think it would be the best for all concerned. His dignity and career and our owners lack of ambition laid bare. If he's not backed it was a stupid, pointless appointment yet again but it would finally be clear to everyone we have to get new owners.

paratici follows many targets, but has his favorites.
maybe not now, maybe not in the summer but at the end he buys his targets: ask to juventus fans how long there were voices for federico chiesa for example. or for cuadrado.
after 2 years of voices he eventually got them.
for these reasons I suggest some names: icardi, dybala, kessiè, paredes, zaniolo, milinkovic-savic, szoboszlai, zurkowski ..they are all possible targets


if paratici does not buy anyone is because he can't spend money and orders are to revalue players that already are in the squad

Seen how you write, I suspect you are Fabio himself. That's why he's always on his phone...he's just out here on TFC to defend his job

You really reckon Jed Spence is going to cut it as a signal of intent?

The guy who's so good that Middlesbrough loaned him out to a Championship rival?

No, but I think more faffing just sends even more of the wrong message.

If Conte likes the player then we need to take the bull by the horns.

 

[BringBack_leGin]

I can forgive us for the three signings that are ending up at bigger clubs. Even at our best a few years ago, no way we’re beating any off Juve, Liverpool or Barcelona to any player they want unless it’s a Spurs fan. That’s not a money thing, that’s a ‘we’re not in their league’ thing.

What I’ll not forgive is if at the end of the window the squad is not tangible stronger than at the start. Struggling to shift players or not, just give them the Adebayor/ Danny Rose treatment if needs be and give their squad space to someone who is actually deserving. We’re making a huge loss on them regardless as they’re not coming good any time soon, so bite the fucking bullet.

I'd love Raphinha here but why the hell would Leeds contemplate selling when they are on the edge of a relegation fight? Selling him could be the difference between staying up and going down.

 

[TheRealTI]

Raphinha would be excellent, but again, it ain't happening

 

[CT1882]

My exact thoughts with this. Leeds are in some jeopardy of the drop, and selling a player of his caliber really could make the difference.
I'd love Raphina, but don't see this happening at all.

 

[Cranston]

No chance for Raphinha.

Leeds are in a dangerous position in the table. He’s their main guy.

Has it got to the we are considering a bid stage yet.

 

[Matt1882]

That's no excuse, any player's agent would already be sniffing out alternative interest in order to drive up the wage offers anyway.

Liverpool didn't just spring into action after hearing about our bid for Diaz whilst browsing twitter.

It was much better in the 90's though when the first you heard of a transfer was the official announcement, and of course no bloody TW, and no YouTube or internet to tell you from the off just how shite Ramon Vega actually was.

Maybe in the case of Diaz that's true, but I'd bet my arse teams have seen media coverage that has made them act before.

Bullshit, let's not start it.

 

[kingdawson]

THEY WILL NOT SELL RAPHINA FFS.


These cunts are intentionally choosing players they know full well we have absolutely no chance getting.

Not we three days to go fucking useless club

 

[Distaste for scouse]

More good news...

They didn't reinforce the structure for his arrival

 

[Stov]

Plus a winger can wait until the summer. We need a defender, centre mid and a rwb now.

Also Conte won’t be playing Ndombele so it’s a choice between getting rid of someone for free and saving £200k a week in wages or keeping Ndombele and have him take 200k a week not even on the bench. That’s £10m a year! 3 years left on his contract that’s £30m saved even if he left for nothing.

If we have any ambition we would get Raphinha and Neves

We haven’t , so we won’t

 

[existenzrippchen]

Raphinha is a nice smokescreen. Very creative.

Meanwhile fucking Burnley are signing Weghorst and Orsic (the guy from Zagreb who knocked us out the EL).

 

[Yorkshire_Spurs]

Raphinha is off to Bayern in the summer.
