Another disappointing window. 5/10 at best. Pleased about Porro obviously, couldn’t give a stuff how the deal is structured. He improves us in a weak area. However I just don’t understand why we haven’t got another centre half in. It’s mind boggling! Personally I would get Harry Maguire in for a 6 month loan. Miles better than what we’ve got bar Romero.
United won’t allow him to co e to us, a rival for top four.
 
This is like the Andy Murray joke innit.

But I don't want to get between Bill Madrid Bill Madrid and Nabil Bentaleb Nabil Bentaleb in deciding which nationality he becomes when he's shit and when he's good!

(other Spanish and Portuguese posters are available to choose from)
I think my Lusitanian hermano and I can agree, he's 100% Macho Ibérico.

Can't wait to see the profits made by enic when they are released in a few weeks time,, will make the price of going to matches all worth it,
Another shit window that a lot of our fans seem happy with, waste of time conte calling for spurs to act like a big club with so much apathy, let's hope fans who want success for our club make their feelings known on Sunday

I don’t think they are. Seems the opposite is true to me.
 
i agree with this if we had actual footballers in front of him,but we dont. we have a midfield that lacks quality on the ball and with son LW you also lack a quality ball player. you put dier and davies there you end up with a serious lack of football in the team which is why its a hard watch.

i dont think lenglet has been as bad as some have made out on here. yea hes had some bad moments. i think hes offered more than davies and dier have all year. im also sick of seeing the same faces show their incompetence year after fucking year. its beyond tedious.
The very fact that players in front of defense are "not actual footballers" exactly means that you have to have solid back line. Cause the clowns upfield cannot retain the possession anyway. Attacks keep on coming and Lenglet is criminally unfit to deal with them.

It is hard to watch the shit Conte is lining us up to play anyway. Picking 21 balls out of our net with 10 games means that our defense is absolute shitshow. And any improvement is big enough.

Specially given that with more solid Davies we could play Perisic on LWB, but with Lenglet, it would have to be Sess... so there is no comparison really. Davies all the fucking way.
 
At absolute best this is a 5/10.

Porro looks promising and should be an upgrade. At a minimum Danjuma will provide us alternatives to Lucas and could provide some competition to or an alternative to Son. It will be good for Spence and White to get experience IF their loans offer them enough playing time.

CB's are still a mess.
No GK help.
I could make a case that lately our LWB situation is worse than our RWB one, but we didn't do anything there either, and we reduced the depth on the right. And we loaned out Doherty who is better suited to the RWB role than Royal.
No players sold.
We were never going to be looking at a LWB this window, whether rightly or wrongly we seem to be putting all our eggs in the Udogie basket .

CB has been an issue for years now, and we still didn't address it. It's a pipe dream to think that we'll bring in a world class LCB and CCB come summer time.
 
So lets look at who some of our rivals signed this January :

Woolwich
Leandro Trossard (Brighton)
Jorginho (Chelsea)

ManCity
Maximo Perrone (Velez Sarsfield)

Newcastle
Anthony Gordon (Everton)
Harrison Ashby (West Ham)

ManU
Jack Butland (Crystal Palace) Loan
Wout Weghorst (Burnley) Loan

Liverpool
Cody Gakpo (PSV)

So Spurs with Porro and Danjuma is possibly better than some other clubs, certainly not bad.

Sure we could improve our squad ........ Liverpool fans will argue the same

Chelsea?
 
Well I've finally managed to catch up with every page of this thread.

It was definitely not worth it! I'll stick to singing Levy Out at away matches!

The real test is if we can get Levy Out going at home against City.
