Pointless signing.
Just Levy hoping to snare the next big thing on the cheap again, the footballing equivalent of doing a scratch card.
Does nothing to help us in the here and now.
I'd bet my arse the bulk of them are still under contract with THFC when the window shuts.
Just to point out, Perisic got assists/key passes for both our goals yesterday. He still has a lot to offer, just maybe not as a LB for 90 minutes.
Shall we not sign young players for the future then?
This feels like one of the biggest anomalies in ENIC history though, doesn't it?
I mean, he isn't a Spurs fan, he had other suiters, he should have had an English tax. I still can't figure out why he cost as "little" as he did and chose Spurs.
He's not panicked, he hasn't even got rid of ONE player yet, he won't even let old players like Lloris and Perisic move on a free!
Seems like a solid purchase for the future.
NOW BUY TAPSOBA AND VDV YOU FUCKS!
(sorry, I'm not going to stop shouting until I get what I want)
RE: Phillips, checkout the after-burners at 2:10
No-one wants your arse, fella......
Look at his record, he brings young ones along.
There is a reason why we are buying this guy and it must have been sanctioned by the manager.
Don't think it's a surprise that this Phillips deal emerged suddenly after that shocking defensive display and Ange's comments.
I expect VdV to get done fairly swiftly now (by the end of the week would be my guess).
And then Tosin as the second one most likely.
There's a slight hope that this delay is because we are working out how to sign both VdV AND Tapsoba whilst integrating Phillips as well. Possibly linked to clarity on exits for Sanchez/Tanganga/Rodon. But maybe wishful thinking.

We have posters on here claiming we have to de-clutter the squad before we can buy CB's. We've gone on a tour having not addressed the CB problem.
We were allegedly close to getting VDV and considering Tapsoba. But if the rumour mill is to be believed we are reluctant to meet the asking price on either.
Get the important things resolved first rather than wasting the dwindling time on a cheap prospect.
If nothing else it will improve the optics.
Strange cos I could have sworn we'd sold Winks.
Mate; this far down the line, you shouldn't have to have the contract/wage factor explained to you.
Neither leave "for free"; we'd have to pay each of them a years wages (which is roughly 10m each)...... Once Hugo finds a new club he'll be gone..... The same factors apply to Perisic.... Just paying them to leave when there's a whole window to try and find clubs for them is dumb.

Solo was excellent yesterday.
No doubt you will be describing him as a cockwomble in short order.
I think you watch too much football. You can't see the wood for the trees.
Don’t slag people off if you don’t even know who they are.

Fair enough I forgot about him
We have to be realistic, no one is going to pay a 5/10m transfer fee for either of them.
I hope he stays with us and gets games.
Matches the extra £3m in revenue the club will receive from increased ticket prices
