Transfers January 2023 Transfer Thread. The Big One

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

He's gone scorched earth very quickly.

TBF. On some level I can understand him since the Everton fans both chased and blocked his car to threaten him after one of their recent losses. He probably doesn't feel much loyalty is deserved towards them after that. But it is still a very extreme step to take.

Especially for a lad so young and relatively untested. When Kane tried to force a move he at least had years of goodwill built up so that fans would forgive him if/when he returned. Gordon doesn't have that.

But again, after recent events he probably doesn't care.

Don't think he's acted any worse than Defoe did at WHU.
Same age, he handed in a transfer request straight after they went down, didn't get let out, so kept getting himself sent off and suspended until they sold him to us.
He was never a problem at Spurs.

Maybe something has happened within Everton that has made Gordon absolutely desperate to get out?
 

This is getting ridiculous, Levy, just put the money they want on the farkin table. You'll feel a temporary sting as it leaves your wallet and maybe a bit of buyers remorse later but it will pass.

Every transfer with us is like something out of the fucking Iliad.
 
All but one of them don’t start & that one is on fucking loan. So we wouldn’t need to replace any of them, they’ve already been replaced.

But don’t let that stop you from defending Eric’s honour.
Anyone who still wants Dier , Davies, Doherty, Winks , Ndombele, Lloris, Sess, Sanchez to stay and start games at spurs are not real spurs fans at this point. They are trolling gooner scum!!

What does it matter? We're not getting him before the 29th, cause he still needs to play in their cup final.

Maybe today was too early to come off the meds.

Sanchez, Davies, Dier, Sess all have their shortcomings but we will need them until the end of the season if we are going to get top 4 and win anything (LOL). They have all been part of previous squads that got top 4 as well.

Based on what I have read, we aren't unwilling to pay. It is Sporting dragging things out so that Porro can play a cup final.

With that being said. I'm fucking tired of this transfer saga.

Whatever Hugo's faults now thats beyond harsh to a bloke that has been with us for 11 years and arguably our best keeper since Jennings. Not his fault the club didnt plan for this eventuality. We wont sell Davies and doubt we'll sell Dier as we'd then need to buy 3 centre backs. Reckon those 2 will just see out their contracts, Diers last year next season.
 
At some point we need to sign some homegrown players. If Danjuma is a success it’s not going to be up front on the left wing now, which would kill Maddison dreams in the summer.

Players that could work:

Olise - Kulu rotation
Guehi- LCB
Killman
Edwards - Kulu rotation
Tomori
Ward-Prowse
Raya
Pickfords

Probably missed some but none of those come cheap and all need to wait for the summer. There isn’t loads to target so whatever the summer budget is, it’s going to go mostly to English tax.
Raya and Olise are the only two on that list I’m even vaguely interested in
