Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
An article I read recently suggested he doesn't like cameras that much. He's also speaking English as a second language. If I tried speaking Portuguese to a global audience I'd pass out.
He's a yid now so let's embrace him like the good cunt he is.
Also, the new recuit videos put out by the spammers are a million times worse than this.
Re : Spence - Signs in tha Mornin'
Another Woolwich target
Not very tall for a cb is he :contesmile:
On Spence
Honestly ? Good. Fuck emOn Spence
‘Perkins, who joined the West Ham United Academy at Under-14 level, rejected the Club’s offers of a professional contract.
‘The Club is now entitled to receive compensation from any club Perkins decides to join.
‘West Ham United invests millions of pounds annually into its world-renowned Academy of Football – and naturally the Club is extremely disappointed that Sonny has chosen not to continue his development with the Hammers.
‘The Club is disappointed with Perkins’ representatives and strongly believe he was approached to sign for another club which led to him asking to be released from his scholarship at West Ham United.
‘West Ham United take this matter very seriously – we believe the rules and structures in place at the Football Association and Premier League should be upheld at all times.
‘The Club will be making no further comment.’
The fuck they whinging about...??? He's not obliged to sign a pro contract with them and their statement contradicts itself too. Blatantly just bluster to appear tough to their gullible fanbase.
Know nothing about the kid, but apparently he's a Spurs fan and we're one of the teams being linked...... Hope it's us that bagged him. Then they'd really have something froth about.... Twats.

We're in for a bit of a ride with this one, aren't we.
Kinell.
And I hope it’s us that “approached” him.
Don’t know anything about the lad, but I like him and I know it will send my neighbour into orbit…
All good in my hood.
Would have to know who the alternatives are to Spence to form a strong opinion, we haven't really been linked to any other RWBs.
But we've clearly prioritized getting our targets done and in for preseason and if that's truly our intention and Spence is who we've targeted, I don't see the point in kicking up a big fuss about whether it is 15m or 20m. 5m isn't making or breaking our ability to go after other targets.
Spence isn't an irreplaceable target or anything, I just don't understand the point in pivoting now. Stinks of Levy getting in a battle of egos with Gibson more than anything, but whatever.
Still expect it will get done, based on our lack of links to other RWB. Probably just trying to scare Gibson and let Levy have his moment so he can feel like a big man.

We seem to be getting more SC crap posted than ever before..... Please..... Spare us.... It's all fake shite.
Reminder:
1. Drawing attention to them is doing them a favour..... i.e. Free publicity.
2. If they really are rent free in your head and you insist on spending time ridiculing them then please... please..... please... post here instead:

Hahah, I would be shitting bricks if that is their grand plan
Fingers crossed!
Surely with where things are going (Lenglet and Spence in) much bigger improvement could come from RWB (first picks Doherty and Spence) than from LCB?!?!?
Agreed with visionary passing & dribbling CM though.
You be very bloody careful...
You realise most of us down here own shotguns still...
The reality is that De Light's contract is due to expire in 2 years (2024). This year the purchase clause is € 115 million. Next year it will be € 140 million and then clearly it will expire. 2 years is a long time and then the club and the prosecutor sat down at a table. The prosecutor asked for an extension of the contract with a lowering of the clause to € 70-80 million but for the club it is not acceptable: € 85 million was paid. The CEO Maurizio Arrivabene has been complaining for some time about the players who love the agent more than the club with reference above all to Dybala and De Light. Result? Dybala is without a team and will probably accept a smaller offer than the one in discussion with Juventus at the end of 2021 when the negotiation was interrupted because it reached the club's ears that Dybala's agent had turned to Inter to create an auction (which therefore did not take place ... unacceptable. De Light has great potential but he also made many mistakes, he was not 100% satisfied so if he wants to leave the club will sell him but at the maximum price and then buy Bremer or Koulibaly. : Fans cheer the club, not the individual player.
Journalist mentions Spurs as potential contenders to move for Matthijs de Ligt

Sky Italia journalist Luca Marchetti has claimed that Tottenham Hotspur are one of the contenders to snap up Juventus centre-back Matthijs de Ligt.
Spurs have been linked with a whole host of centre-backs over the past couple of months (Football.London) and the club now finally appear to be on the verge of signing one.
Reports over the last two days have indicated that the North London club have reached an agreement with Barcelona over a loan move for Clement Lenglet, with the option to make the deal permanent (90 min).
However, the Frenchman might not be the only centre-half that Spurs sign this summer, with reports indicating that Antonio Conte wants to make further additions to his backline (Football.London).
De Ligt’s future appears to be in the air, with the centre-back having just two years left on his contract at the Allianz Stadium (Transfermarkt).
Reports over recent days have indicated that Chelsea are keen on snapping up the Dutchman and ready to offer Timo Werner to Juve as a makeweight in the deal (Daily Mail).
Marchetti now explained that Juve and Chelsea do not see eye-to-eye on Werner’s valuation and added that Spurs could swoop for De Light.
When asked about the Blues’ pursuit of the centre-back, the journalist told Tuttomercatoweb: “Chelsea are a possible track, they have lost Rudiger and Christensen, they need two defenders.
“I do not exclude United, where there is ten Hag, who knows De Ligt well. And there is also Tottenham, however, looking for a left-footed central.
“Today I don’t know how much Juventus are thinking of selling him, the chat with Chelsea is not profitable.
“Werner, who from London would like to include as a counterpart, is not crazy and above all in Turin, they disagree on the evaluation of 70 million that Chelsea makes for the German.”
Spurs Web Opinion
I think Lenglet’s impending arrival likely rules out a potential move for De Ligt, given that the Frenchman has likely been brought in as cover for both Eric Dier and Ben Davies.
If Spurs do sign one more centre-back, it is likely to be someone of Gleison Bremer’s profile to replace one either Davinson Sanchez or Japhet Tanganga.
I would like to add a detail: De Jong, the former Ajax star paid by Barcelona by weight in gold, hasn't even climbed mountains. Maybe De Light and De Jong are excellent players but not phenomena as we thought ...
It's all coming apart..
Could be very wrong but got the idea reading stuff during the week that Juve were willing to sell De Ligt to possibly Chelsea for something around €80m. That would be a fair price, he's still young but doesn't yet really look like the player he was expected to be. Needs a change of scenery I think.
