Shittsouma on his way out? Oh happy days...

The only issue is that no-one is ever going to pay £30m for that useless shite. Just cancel his contract. It's the only way to be sure that the fetid stench of his mediocrity is gone for good.

The 'clever and grown up' nickname doesn't even work.

Biss doesn't rhyme with shit.

Bissouma doesn't even start with S.

I've seen our players called some pathetic names by some pathetic posters but even I admit some of them are clever word play.

You haven't even got that.

And the guy, for all his faults, was integral to our Europa win. I wish him well.
 
To be fair, Solanke scored 16 and assisted 8 in an awful season where we had no continuity in playing staff and he was, in large parts of the season, starved of service. That's only 4 less than he managed for Bournemouth in the previous season. He's hardly been a failure in that regard.

Football is littered with players who've had mediocre starts to their first season at a new club, then risen to the challenge after that.

Didn't RM fans vote Modric as one of their worst ever buys ever after his first season? Now he sits as arguably one of the greatest midfielders they've ever had.
Solanke 's goals were all tap ins. He is not a forward for a Champions League club.
If we can move him on, we should.
 
Why do people keep mentioning Kyle Walker Peters? He’s so bang average at best! Why don’t we sign Sessegnon back too! Sign a player because he’s club trained even though he’s not good is bonkers. The same people who mention this moan about how our squad is shit when we have injuries and have to play these types.

Spursidol Spursidol ?

Bit of a cunt but knows the club and PL by heart, has won plenty, got bags of experience...and Milan is a right mess so maybe coming home would appeal.
 
I think Atleti have gone for Hincapie because they know they won’t get Romero. They’re not prepared to pay 70 mil and no way Levy is budging on that price, nor should he. Atleti sell for big prices but aren’t prepared to buy for big prices so they can go fuck themselves
 
I was thinking about him - but even with his CT status - i would pass.

As FB we have: Udogie, Spence, Porro and Gray as an option (plus in theory VdV). Think Spence as major cover for both LB and RB is enough. Especially since under Frank fullback role should be simplified.

Only addition i would consider here is either LB/LCB hybrid, or someone like pre-injury Rico Henry (dynamic left footed guy who can cross). KWP does not fit any of those profiles.

Bring Cirkin back?

Did well in the champo with Sunderland.
 
The journalist who hosted the pod I listened to did a lot of research on him and it felt so bizarre how things always kept escalating. So many times that I thought "surely this is were he goes to prison/faces the consequences" but nope.
Friends in high places and had a lot of dirt on Spanish and foreign leaders/rich fuckers.

Made himself untouchable.

Not Walker, Walker-Peters is but really don't think it's worth bringing someone like that in just to fill an extra squad space for a year

Shitssouma was ridiculous, I agree. Man I'd have been embarrassed of that one.

But so is wishing well to a guy who's pocketed an outrageous amount of cash for 3 years at Spurs whilst being awful for 90% of that period. Unprofessional and disrespectful too...the whole balloon episode anyone?

I have zero time for him, cannot wait for him to leave Spurs and he's up there as one of the signings I most regret. The fact he played well vs C-listers in 4 or 5 Europa League games changes nothing.
 
Eze is the silkier player, would be a fun player to have. Mbuemo is the one who lands you more league points over a season imo.
I think Eze is significantly more useful against a low block defence, something which Mbuemo has rarely ever faced when playing for Brentford. I have real doubts that his playing style would translate directly when playing for Spurs as a lot of teams will let us have the ball and not have the space to run into like he does at Brentford.

Eze however is a very Spurs player in my mind, capable of the absolute highest quality and already an England international. I would stump up 60m for him in a heartbeat.
