I reckon we'll end up going for Wissa now and he'll be our "big" signing. Prob sell Richarlison and keep Son then.

Don't see there being much other action. Surely we sign a midfielder but think it'll be someone bang average like Ramsey now.

We'll only sign a defender if we sell Romero.

And that'll be that. Probably buy a few uknown youngsters too who won't be ready to play for us. We like doing that.
This might be the most depressing thing I have read on here, Wissa as our star signing, what a shambolic window that would be.
 
My point was the club is said to have been in the big six or whatever it would have been called, before ENIC/Levy took over.

Wikipedia has the club in the big 5 in the 1980s.

''The concept first emerged in the 1980s as the Big Five, comprising Woolwich, Everton, Liverpool, Manchester United, and Tottenham Hotspur''

Sure, but there's a few different definitions of it. Cup wins, financial power, player pull, and/or league finish.

Only the first one applies and was arguably irrelevant by the time sugar got in

Are we basing him “being a twat” on his performance against us, when he went ape?

I don’t know, because I haven’t watched much of him, but if that was a one off I wouldn’t worry so much

I think spammer fans have been calling him that. TBF maybe it's them that are the twats and Kudus is a sound guy!
 
I'm not even going to entertain the Kudus talk. I got sucked into the Eze links and hyped myself up. Waist of time.

I didn't fall for the Mbeumo or Sane links which had loads other excited on here. Kudus doesn't feel like a Spurs player. West Ham won't want to sell to us and Kudus seems like someone who'd want to join a better club for more money too. If any bigger team come in then we are a sittind duck for a hijack.

Don't even bother getting your hopes up for this one! Just read the links and laugh.

That is where my expectations are at now. Eze was the best player available who actually felt like a realistic signing. We won't pay 70m for Semenyo and I just can't see Kudus joining us, too many things can go wrong there.

Wissa genuinely feels like a realistic signing and the best we can hope for. I know its depressing lol I'm not sure if he's even an upgrade on Richarlison. But whats where my expectations are at after the Eze stuff last week. I've no hope in us getting any big player.
 
The kudus rumours are really uninspiring

You have to be wary of teams being so wiling to sell you their better players….

For me I want either Eze or Simons

And Semenyo - admittedly difficult with the contract he’s on
