I don't mate no, I did say it was disappointing.
The trouble is, we're trying to discern a pattern with nothing more than smoke & mirrors in the media, which is why I'm keeping my powder dry.
"Ange Postecoglou was bullish on the subject of defending set-pieces ahead of Tottenham's meeting with Chelsea. "I don't see it as an issue,""
Spunk and explode in the same sentence. Hmmmmmm.....Part of me wants us to spunk £40m on a RB just to watch this place explode.

I fucking knew we would be linked to one of their wingers as soon as the Gruda stuff came out.Some daft cunt on Spurs Community has posted the following. To be fair, this hasn’t come from one of the so called ITKs, just a random, so there might actually be a morsel of truth in it:
Good afternoon, I am not ITK of any sort however, I had some information given to me yesterday by someone within the Brighton camp that we are getting Simon Adingra. I’m just passing this on as I know nothing about him
We obviously like Vanderson, Gold said we were tracking him months ago. Probably just keeping in touch with the agent led to the rumour.Yeah Gold's scotched that Vanderson one early on so as you were. Did seem odd even for us.
Some.people will do that, it's just personal opinion.

As I saii yesterday (and i actualy forgot a couple of them) Brighton now have Gruda, Mitoma, Adringa, Minteh, Cozier Duberry AND Ibrahim Osman who they just signed for 16m not to mentioned Sully March who plays out wide and Joao Pedro can play there.
They are definitely going to shift someone.
Saw him briefly for brighton last season. A livewire and has lots of potential.I'd take Adingra in a heart beat.
Only got 2 years left on his contract

Ginola was the very definition of "mercurial winger," he could disappear in games fairly often, but he's adored here.
I can remember Waddle being criticised a great deal when he first came to us. "Lazy" was a word trotted out quite often, yet he's another adored by our fans.
I often wonder how players like these 2, and even Hoddle, would be viewed by the modern fan in the modern game. I'm pretty sure that all 3 would have critics vehemently digging them out for not having certain elements to their game, but all 3 were absolute ballers.
