Transfers January 2022 - Transfer Window

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Before we go complaining about how bad our transfers are… Take a moment to look at chelscum

Would you say Pulisic at 51m was good? Werner at 47m? Havertz at 72m? Chilwell?

Come on, we’re doing pretty well keeping up without spending on gash players like them!

+ Lukaku proving mediocre as we speak.
 
Still don't understand if Conte prioritised a RWB this window why have we signed 2 players that don't play as a RWB, this club make no sense sometimes lol

Ah well just gotta hope that Conte is happy with the business this TW, suspect the make or break window will be the Summer one though...

I think if you can’t strengthen where you want to, then at least strengthen where you can.

Not to say something still won’t happen there, but I feel like we were banking on getting Traore.
 
Juve have gotten Zakaria for peanuts (£4m). He's a beast. We get two underwhelming benchwarmers for £20m apiece. WTAF. I can't understand why we weren't interested at that price.

Honestly, I've no fucking idea what is going on here. Does Conte have any say in this? Did he really choose Dekulus* and RodBent*? It's really starting to feel like Itchyprat has no connections at all and is just being shat on by his old schoolmates.

* Anyone can make up shit nicknames, but at least mine are knob-gags!

Possibly because there wasn't a good enough RWB available in the window? pretty obvious that we had the cash but who was there that was available?

We still need more quality, that said two decent January signings and a few non-playing squad players moved out ... that's a better window than almost every other EPL, try and be positive.
 
Really hope we get Dembele.

Conte would make him more disciplined. He did well under Tuchel who is similar in discipline to Conte. Players like Dembele need a strict manager.

Sweet fuck all

We're not comparable to Chelsea in that regard, Mendy was a steal, Kovacic has been brilliant, Jorginho has been fantastic, Havertz scored the winning goal in a CL final, Ziyech has showed his ability even if he hasn't spent enough time on the pitch, Pulisic might be a bit pricey but still has time. You've also left out signing Thiago Silva on a free. I think the only two ones there who are complete failures are Kepa and Werner, and the thing with them is they can afford to fuck up a couple times, we can't. Romero, Hojbjerg and Reguilon are the only 3 signings we've made in the past 4 years who could be called anything close to a 'success', and to be honest I'm still unsure on PEH. When you're fighting an uphill battle financially you can't afford to make transfer mistakes and we've done it a million times, to say 'we're doing pretty well compared to Chelsea' is mind boggling especially considering they've won a bloody Champions League in that time. And trust me I don't like giving them praise, this is just facts.
 
I’ve been moaning about a lack of craft, and we desperately do lack in that dept., so maybe that’s the thinking behind Kulusevski, if so then I guess that’s an understandable gamble, especially as a loan/option.
Like you and many others, I’d love to see that coming from CM, but I just think those players who can also put in the required yards in this league are pretty rare. So then you have to look at someone who does it from the final third but still supports the midfield adequately, and 8/10 if you will. Not saying Kulu is this, but he seems to have the energy, composure and dedication to fulfill this.
