What kind of retarded logic is this. Harry Winks played a CL Final - is he better than Eze?

You'll catch some flack for the R word, but the point is valid.

Same logic applies to medals. Is Kane worse than any number of mediocre players to have their cabinets lined because they have a few minutes here and there for Man United?
Kudus played CL football for Ajax. So what? Ajax have finished outside the top 3 in the Netherlands twice since the turn of the century. They almost always qualify.
Is Steven Bergwjin better than Eze?
Lucas Moura?

Kudus is younger and tbh probably a better player at 24 than Eze was.

Right now Eze is a better decision maker and more complete, Kudus is more explosive and maybe has a higher ceiling.

I agree although you have to factor in that eze is a model proffesional with a great attitude and that's what allowed him to achieve his current level and unfortunately those are some of the things I fear with kudus.

If he signs il have to pray I'm wrong but It stinks of a similar situation to ndombele albeit not as bad. He will get a bumper wage rise, great at first before the dreaded drop off begins as he gets comfy and sees we are nothing more than a top 6 contender. Then onto the next club.

Perhaps - I am, but I am also hyper aware of the toxicity created in online forums.

I was literally met with very very serious posts when I dared to try and debate football and players when we didn't win a game...

So perhaps you should be telling those folks they are taking it too seriously, too?

Very serious post from people you don't know and will never meet. That did not threaten you with violence.

Where did I say I didn't like him? He's a decent player who's defo got his own USP, but he ain't who we should be buying after finishing 17th and our chairman claiming he's after the PL & CL (I know I know...he's mugging us off). Buying Kudus doesn't move the needle. Period.

I say you don't buy that lad after already wasting money on Tel, but especially not when Bowen is the No 1 to get out of West Ham.

If he actually meant those words, we would have gone out and bought one of Mbeumo/Kudus/Semenyo plus Eze and a number 6.

But he doesn't so we will buy one forward and some kids

Eze could very well spend his evenings hanging out of hookers and going through balloons like a sharp finger-nailed clown, whereas Kudos is down his local church, having a bit of a pray and feeding the poor. None of us know.

Unfortunately, our scouting team rarely knows either, which is why we’ve got a miserable transfer record on the whole.

Kudus is a top player. Incredibile talent.

But you need also a center forward (Solanke a bad signing, not good enough for CL football) and a defensive midfielder.

Jashari: he costs 35m. Plus a top striker.

Vicario
Porro
Vdv
Romero
Udogie
Jashari
Kulusevski
Maddison/Bergvall
Kudus
Sesko/Ekitike/Gyökeres
Odobert

This is very good team. You lack not many players, but they must be the right players.

I think we should for once try and get head of the curve. Over pay for.. Baleba, then get Hjulmand, our midfield badly lacks some steel. Then try and get a 9 with the highest ceiling we can. I have doubts about Gyökeres but think Ekitike my preference is a non starter.

Lol, my point was that for some reason I am getting told to not take this place so seriously when other come on here and very seriously call other grown adults they have never met weird names because they didnt kick a football the way they wanted them too.

Dude...there names. As long as it's not racism or homopbia it's blokes ( and a few esteemed women) having a laugh. Whilst Spurs disappoint us, seriously life will 100% sadly get round with the real shit stuff, try not to sweat this nonsense.

Oh ffs, its offseason mate. Nothing happens at this point except gossips and rumours, no matches, no press conferences.
Just put this thread on ignore if you can't handle what is happening here. And yeah, I prefer to read about even very unlikely scenarios re:transfers than going through any of your last posts on this thread.
