Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Hearing us linked to Mathius Tel today........ Any more noise about that?

Leaving BM for game-time.... Only to come here and deputise for Solanke (and from our perspective; roadblock Lankshire)..........?

Seems an odd fit for our current needs....... Unless he can play wide too?

Mate, he wouldn't be roadblocking Lankshear, he's a completely different level of player. Lankshear still needs to build his CV somewhere on loan for the next year, maybe 2.
 
If he looks at the current state of the squad it might scare him off. But if he looks at the bigger picture I think Spurs are a. Much better option for a young player. But united will pay huge wages. So money talks.

Radcliffe will want a say about that..... Especially if he's having to take a massive hit on 3 1/2 more years of Rashford's 320kpw wages (and carry on paying half of Sanchos).

He's a great fit can play wide and through the center. The way Postecoglou plays football means three covers per attacking place is actually required.
 
Our current Premier League squad contains Sergio Reguilon, Alfie Whiteman, Brandon Austin, Fraser Forster, and Max Robson (who?) as over-age players, and only 14 of the 17 foreign slots have been used, one of them by Reguilon.

It's trickier in the Europa League admittedly, but there is TONS of squad room for new players in the league/domestic cups.

Spence <> Forster (HG)
Richy <> Kinsky (non-HG)
Werner <> [ NEWBIE ] (non-HG)

Rich, Werner & Forster can just be extra bodies for EPL cover.

Romano on it as well.

Nobody else saying anything about wanting UTD, only about wanting playing time. I reckon we can offer him playing time tbh.

I can't see us going that high for Wissa to be honest, we probably should but I doubt we will

It's not the transfer fee with Levy, it's the wages. 50m amortised over 5 years isn't a huge hit for him. But north of 200k pw is a real issue. Fortuntaley Brentford will probably be paying him less than 100k pw so Wissa would definitely be affordable.
 
It's going to be Evan Fergerson on deadline day isn't it.
He's scored:
2024/25 14 games (some sub) 1 goal
2023/24 36 games (some sub) 6 goals
2022/23 25 games (some sub) 10 goals

I don't know when the new manager came in, but something changed last season to affect these numbers. Could be playing system, injuries, tactics, i don't know.

But i would take him, either Ange doesn't see Lankshear as short-term fill in, or thinks he needs a loan.

Either way, Richy should be considered a bust, he's just hasn't got the game for a PL player, we can't go into another season with him playing just three or four games halfway through the season.

In short without playing he's possibly caused Solanke's injury.
 
Everyone in football has watched the club go through a massive injury crisis, without any action to remedy the situation. What about that is going to be attractive to prospective players and managers? It is plain to see this “project” is a farce.
There has to be some form of ownership takeover/buy out going on in order to justify this.

That's the only way that we can come out of this without looking like a complete clown car.
