Not really sure you understood what that conversation was about and we are now discussing 1 very small part on the conversation.
I like Udogie and Sarr.
I’ll comment on Vdv as that’s where my difference of opinion with you lies.
He’s excellent with the ball at his feet, and is a very aware player with good positional sense (probably needed if paired alongside Romero).
He’s also very quick and has plenty of agility - this would be very handy in Ange’s system.
He is great at playing out from the back. He also, unlike Romero, isn’t one for flying into tackles. Again, this would complement Romero.
He’s calm under pressure, doesn’t panic, and is good with possession.
Genuinely think he’d be a very good defender alongside Romero
I appreciate it would be a big leap for him coming to the PL but he’s young, and can be taught. Has a very high ceiling. There’s a reason he’s highly rated.
All that said, I absolutely think he’s a bit of a project atm. We should be buying him AND Tapsoba.
Edit: Whilst I don’t agree that you posting one or two videos amounts to 100% fact, I do agree VDV isn’t the best in the air (by a long way), but I think his other abilities would make him a great signing (for the future).
I was a bit of a dick to you to be honest, and I apologise. You’re one of the more rational and good posters on here.

So, no CBs before Shakhtar.
It's sabotage by neglect at this point.
Was honestly expecting this week to start some action but still thumbs up arse time.
If we had elections for the Chairman position, is there a Spurs fan in the world that would vote for Levy?

I dunno why you bother replying to him
The goat fucker is a troll
I understood fine.... The premise was why don't we make 'smart' deals for young players.... The counter argument was that we do and then you made the comment in question.
Just don't understand your comment about DU & PM-S nor agree with what it implied........ That you like them (which I don't doubt) makes it all the more odd.
That's good to know - although I'm a bit confused what that means 
In the meantime Lukeba was "lost" to Leipzig

Too cowardly to tag me, hey.
Don’t like my posts, put me on ignore. In fact, I genuinely (and normally I post pretty tongue in cheek) now, I’ve not seen one single intelligent, thought out post on here since you befouled this forum with your stink. So I’ll pop you on ignore and we can both wallow in our own shit.
Edit: Same goes for my stalker

Not in that order, though.
were they smart business?
.........Why would he when the next Saturday it's back to St Mirren or whatever the fuck? (I'm talking about week to week; not the once or twice a season they ended up playing a 'David v Goliath' style game.)
Simple fact is we need him to be smarter and more adaptable than Bielsa was.

They don't want to sign anyone until some players leave and since the Maddsion splurge, can't sign a first 11 player until they have Kane money.
Levy is not worried by the talent that comes off the market and becomes unavailable whilst he resolves the Kane situation and any other outgoings.
It's always about his way or the highway and that includes any detriment to the quality of the football team.
Maybe easier to close this thread until deadline day.
Sounds like he fancies himself as a bit of a coach.... Why not get involved?
"Football is a simple game for smart people" - That's a lovely philosophy.
I hope so.
We have waited until this season to find out.
I like both but when you weigh them against the long list of transfer fuck ups, you can't with a sane mind make a case for arguing we do smart transfer business.
Paratici brought a decent scouting operation in but we are objectively fucking awful at recruitment.
Brighton do smart business. Do we?
They're double skint, don't forget they're rebuilding Camp Nou.
I'm a little nervous tbhSeason starts next weekend.
Phew, what a pre-season this has been.
All the pieces slotting together, nicely.
We all ready to go, yeah?!
What does everyone think - 4th... 3rd??

Worried that we might be just too good for the competition
It will get very boring watching us win 5 nil every week
I forget how much PL time Scott has played?
I had forgotten that.
They won la liga but we are approaching territory where "do a Leeds" becomes "do a Barca".
You don't rate him?
That's fine. It was my opinion and I do, dudu! I do!
I know, but you called it smart business for a guy that hasn't played a second of PL football but seem reluctant to call Sarr (who actually has played in the PL) and Udogie smart business because they haven't shown whether they are smart business yet.
Either they are all smart business or none of them are!
