Jashari instead of Camara. Camara isn't better than Bissouma and Sarr and doesn't improve your team. Jashari is a defensive midfielder but he has also great feets: he should be a perfect signing.
There’s actually no-one with enough experience who doesn’t have weaknesses in our price bracket I think.

Camara plays more of of box to box in a double pivot for Monaco, but I think he could be shaped to be a little deeper with us. His mobility and engine just look right for the PL for me. And his forward passing short and long is better than anything we have in our CM stable.

Jashari is more of a Vitinha metronome player, but I just am not sure he’s physical enough for the PL at this stage and he seems set on Milan anyway.
 
Talk about changing the narrative!

Do you really think if he had a free choice he’d be staying at Forest?!
Yes because he did have a free choice, tell Marinakis to get fucked and accept the bid or I'm taking it to the PFA, or sign a new contract, which did he do?
Lo Celso and Sessegnon were deadline day signings ffs!
Lo Celso and Sessegnon were signed in the same window 6 days apart, how can they both have been signed on deadline day? Were there multiple deadline days that window?
Never mind I just fact checked myself and I'm talking bollocks was looking at the wrong date for GLC, regardless we had them in by early August regardless the PL trying some insane bullshit and having deadline day on the evening before the season kicks off when literally no other league in the world was going to do it as well.
Main point though, there's no correlation between when we sign players and how good they are, whenever they sign there's 80% chance they're gonna be cack.
That's pretty much what I was getting at anyway, we are just as likely to succeed or fail on a couple of last-week-of-the-window punts as we are on a planned out transfer that is in through the door prior to the season start. The common denominator with all the players I named outside of some petty squabbling over what constitutes "early" in a transfer window is that we planned them all out and were linked with all of them from June onwards, yes it may take us longer than most clubs to get pre-planned deals over the line but our success rate on them is fucking atrocious.

It’s very likely his agent is being threatened with breach of contract.

MGW probably didn’t want the aggro if his partner is having a difficult pregnancy.

Being forced to stay whatever the circumstances is very different from the flat rejection you’re making out.

If MGW has turned down a move to Tottenham Hotspur because his agency (he is not managed by a single agent) might have to go not even to court but to a sports arbitration body and pay a fine that Tottenham Hotspur would almost certainly cover in full, because it might be too much hassle for his wife, what about that does not scream "flat rejection" to you?
Do you think this scenario would be happening to Chavs? City? Woolwich? Real Madrid? Definitely fucking not.
 
What a miserable lot you are

I mean FFS what are your everyday lives like?

Every player Spurs have currently is shit, every player the journos link us with are shit or unattainable

Spurs fuck this up, fuck that up, Levy this, Lange that

Thank fuck you lot aren’t in charge of this Club

If you are so miserable then don’t support the Club
We are shit.

The board are shit.

The players we buy are for the most part, shit.

It's second rate slop that we buy, we buy thrice for every good player we could buy, but that's not the Levy way. I also don't think you can look back at the last 15-20 years and say we've made any significant, prolonged improvement, while others have caught up to us in no tome. So it's clearly not just moaning.

But if you want to bury your head in the sand and be a yes man, that's your prerogative. We're still allowed to support the club, and be dissatisfied. Who are you to gatekeep. Moron.

I'd reign that in to say 5 years tbh, comparing Spurs from 20 years ago, 10 years ago, and now is definitely a bell curve.

What a load of piffle! 😂 So you don’t think Maranakis throwing his toys out the pram had no bearing on his decision? Have you had a partner with a difficult pregnancy? The last thing you want is a load of external stress. None of that adds up to a flat rejection!

Olise’s failed transfer to Chelsea after Palace threatened legal action for one?

About the only thing you got correct is your choice of user name!
