Transfers The Summer Transfer Edging Thread 2025

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I mean in reality:

We've made Tel permanent, which wasn't an automatic or a given until it was announced.
We've signed Tokai
We've triggered Danso permanent
Vuskovic's transfer has become official now he's 18
Hojbjerg's transfer to marseille has been triggered
and I think Veliz has just gone out on loan.
Yeah, but what have the Romans ever done for us?
 
Kudus I guess I can understand. Lookman though I’d rather just get Dibling in and develop him in house.

I’m so tired of this middling crap.
You're wrong Lookman has quietly turned himself into a very good player. At present he is better than Dibling might ever be he's now better than all our front players bar Son prime. He isn't the player he was at Everton. Trust me he is a smart get.
 
I think Kane would have suffered the same. He never looked anywhere near as good for England as he did at club level (under Southgate) because of the very "static" role. Certain players, whether it be a Grealish, Kane, Bale, Ronaldo, Messi - no ability equivalence implied - are at their best when they are allowed to roam about a bit, and suffer from being plonked on a wing or in the 6 yard box if the ball never comes to them

When you and others come on here every single day to make the same complaints, practically verbatim, the irony of you claiming others are "bashing the same 3 buttons" is off the scale.

Your lack of self awareness is breathtaking.
 
If we can’t find a good ball playing 6, ball playing CBs are an absolute must.
I’m very excited about this. He is probably the smartest signing we could make to cover the left side. High potential, young, the right physical and mental attributes, great on the ball, played PL and championship for several seasons…

Reliable cover now and likely to continue to improve. Two top class starters and a bunch of wonderkids pushing them. This would make the defensive squad building top class.

Need to start to get the rest of the squad right.
