Transfers The Summer Transfer Edging Thread 2025

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I do not think reality has truly set in on the Levy/Lange defenders.

In a week’s time we play PSG for a trophy, with zero fit #10s, one fit senior LB, and, depending on Solanke, possibly one fit senior striker, having just lost 60 combined G/A in Son, Kulu, Madders due to injury or transfer. This is a season where each of the 3 positions badly needed reinforcement anyway, now even moreso, and we have done fuck all to address any of them.

This is absolute malpractice and nothing short of catastrophe at any serious football club. Somehow the weirdos here manage to defend it.
You wrong mate..your coming from a place of genuinely caring about the team. They are not. They are here in support of ENIC and its goals. Real estate, entertainment then football. Im not sure if they are renumerated as some claim but id not be surprised.


So what are we doing to change things? Are you guys organizing more protests ?
 
I put the link in the post. It’s literally right there.

They haven’t signed Sesko yet. You can’t include players that haven’t been signed otherwise we’ll take MGW too.

Let’s just talk facts.
Why would we take mgw when that move is completely dead. Utd have literally signed sesko, they’ve agreed a fee with the club and player reported by Romano and ornstein. He will play for Utd next season, mgw will not play for us.
 
Love the ramping up stage, something about it….
i'm partial to keeping tabs...

They have signed Sesko, and you’re just bleating on a technicality. This is embarrassing at this point

When it happens, they’ll have done more business than us.

The comment was about as of right now and as of right now only last season’s top four has done more than us. We still have 3.5 weeks left of the transfer window so either let’s do today or let’s do the whole window, not your projection of where we’ll be on August 10.
 
They’ve done two players - Cunha and Mbuemo. That is less than us.

It’s much better business than we’ve done. Two star players their clubs wanted to keep desperately putting up incredible numbers.

I like Kudus but never in a million years do we get him after the good season. We get him after the interest has dropped off and there is more doubt around him + when the club have to sell.

We’re a fucking hyena of a club. Wait for the lions to have their fill and then scarper off with a bit of the zebras arse in your gob.
 
Levy is just the wrong owner. Did you see his podcast with Neville? He really believes he's running the only "sustainable" club in the PL.

Well, I'll happily wager him that Liverpool, City, Chelsea and others will still be there in 10 years time, and will have won more over the next 10 years than us. "Sustainable" or not.
Where will the league be in 5 years? According to Levy Chelsea, Woolrich, Man City, and Liverpool will somehow be falling into line under the financial fair play rules. That's just nonsense. The one crystal clear lesson of the Man City charges debacle (which will end with not much punishment for City) is that football is ungovernable. If anything, the rules do more to stop Newcastle, Aston Villa, and Nottingham Forest from displacing any of the big 4 from the top of the standings for more than a season at most. Spurs are unique in that they could make the big 4 a big 5 but don't want to spend what would be required. And I get up this morning to read that Spurs are making a 35 million pound offer for a 70 million player (Nico Paz). We are where we are because we are a stadium with a team instead of a team with a stadium.
 
It’s actually embarrassing trying to defend this window.

Other clubs are strengthening significantly, whilst we’re happy doing the bare minimum, along with losing key players …
 
absolute nonsense of the highest order.

except the getting toxic part - our 'fans' love getting toxic....
How is it nonsense??? You thinking these two are top players is the most severe case of Spurs tinted glasses I've ever seen. Eze is an order of magnitude better than Kudus and Palhinha whilst good and an improvement on what we have is not top draw... you've been Levy'd so hard you are now accepting second tier players with gratitude.
 
Macch an actual Spurs Deuterz Deuterz fan told you what to do. But you haven't answered our question what are YOU doing to show how happy you are man? We're dying to know?
 
And that is 100% correct. Get the player we want or need and just pay the fee. This club is pathetic compared to the big clubs. Liverpool have basically strengthened but built again for the future in one window which means they don’t have to spend every summer. They just need to tweak. We never strengthen to a point where it’s noticeable and are constantly in a rebuild. If you keep spending 30,40,50 60 million on players you don’t go anywhere. In this day and age we really are small time with what type we go for,who we go for and what we are willing to spend.

I’m close to not spending a lot of my money on this club anymore till we change. I’d rather we just came out and said it’s never going to change rather than the fucking pish levy spouted about wanting to win leagues and champions leagues. Delusional cunt.

This is exactly it.

We haven’t come out of a transfer window noticeably stronger and in a good place since ENIC took over.

Legitimately, they’ve been here 20 + years and never come close to an impressively well planned and executed window.

Levy has sacked football administrators who have gone on to have plenty of windows like that elsewhere.

It’s like water torture, one drop at a time.
