Transfers The Summer Transfer Edging Thread 2025

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Just me catching up on 20 or so pages just after waking up. I'd rather get a blowie of a fittie but hey we ain't all that lucky.

Probably the wrong terminology too.

I really, really liked the kid when he was at Girona and not surprised City brought him back. He did okay last season to be fair, considering he was a Brazilian baby lad arriving in mad Rainchester and discovering the mighty PL. Yeah coulda/shoulda scored a few more in that team, but still he was decent.

40mil on him and I'm happy. Like I said in another post earlier, just wish we'd not spent that on Tel & Odobert and used that cash to sign a LB, LCB, 10 etc etc.

Some Englishmen in that squad would be nice too. We're Spurs, not Woolwich or Liverpool.

Reports of €50m sense to me as well. Even a bit higher but not this nonsense £70m going around

But tbh I don’t give a fuck about transfer fees so much. We all know what this club will and won’t pay for a player
 
Just how bad are our twitter ITK accounts? We had a well known account going on about Eze on Saturday and saying how Woolwich have pulled out. He was also hyping Jack Grealish on loan. 2 days later and we have moved for Savinho (Nobody saw that coming), Jack Grealish is going to Everton and Woolwich are still poised to get Eze before the window closes.

I don't like Lange. I've been vocal about that all Summer. But I have to give credit where its due. He has done some job at feeding down absolute garbage to all our apparent "leaks" and ITK accounts. They've been chasing their own tail all summer and haven't had a clue whats been going on behind the scenes. Even on a personal level, I know a few people well connected to the club and even they don't seem to know whats going on. Nothing they've told me has materialised this summer while other years they'd be on the money!

I'm at the stage now where I'm tempted to start ignoring/blocking all these big Tottenham fan accounts and ITK accounts because they just post nonsense. Wait for the real journalists to tell you when a deal is done. I don't see one good ITK account from spurs who has beaten Ornstein or Romano to a transfer this Summer.

It’s been bone dry for a while now. Weirdly GiveMeSport were the first ones to get a sniff of the Savinho bid.
 
Just wanted to say....

"Levy OUT"

Spurs to bring in new height restriction for potential signings of 5ft 8 inches

If going for a tall player 5ft 8 will be the max height requirement
If going for a short player it will be a minimum height requirement

If the player is bang on 5 ft 8 inches we will simply say he failed both metrics when in fact he has met both . We can then argue until we run out of time
 
2 or 3 signings before Saturday, even if they can't play would be a fantastic boost.

There is no reason, whatever the detractors might concoct in their wee Diddy minds for players not to join this great club.

Many must have seen the joy of May and no longer have that burden.

Only when hope is extinguished is it time to give up.

Now behave and stop being naughty boys!!!

You absolutely should - these guys do not know anything anymore.
 
No idea if this guy is reliable and/or this is just his agent or Barca trying to shift him? I can’t see us paying a back up CB 200+k a week

Barca would happily cash in since he can't stay fit for a minute. For that reason alone we should probably stay clear

My wet dream is still Fermin Lopez and Marc Casado. Probably didn't make things easier that Lopez had a good first half against Como yesterday
 
At Forest he often played upfront in a front 2. They built their attack around him and always had him coming centrally.

Under Ange, we always played him wide. His goalscoring ability is elite, the numbers speak for themselves! But he's bang average as a winger, in fact below average. His 1v1 dribbling is poor and he has very poor numbers for successful take ons. He also has a poor crossing ability where going low and hard is his only real option. Basically he is very very easy to nulify on the wing for an opposing fullback. They want to see Brennan out wide as he's little threat. And don't forget that we played with inverted full backs for the last 2 seasons so Brennan has always had to stay wide and hold the width for 90% of games which never suited his style.

However, if Frank plans to use him more centrally, either running behind Solanke or else in an inverted wing role (think Mbeumo at Brentford who rarely hogged the touchline) then we could have a really really effective player on our hands who can score even more goals as won't be stuck on the touchline trying to play as a winger during the game where he is totally ineffective.

So I disagree that he's gotten worse then he was at Forest. I think he's always been a very poor touchline winger and from now on he should be used much more centrally. I think Frank will get the best out of him. He's one player I'm not concerned about at all. I think he's the most underrated player on this forum.
Brennan will be his new Wissa I reckon
 
Yeah because posts about John are totally related to transfers.

Little link and you’re all firing shots at him .. was it a top down command or are you all self sufficient?


Haha! Of course yeah sure John never tags anyone looking for their view to prove a point does he?

It’s straight from the top pal! Levy took some time out of his day to instruct us to post en masse on an internet forum to a group of strangers
