So nothing the entire football world hasn't been gossiping about for at least 24 hours?
He’s not a spurs fan. He’s a cunt.
According to reports, he did. But, I don't know what the fuck Frank said to him to make him change his mind, even when Bayern and City couldn't.
I was the first one to be enraged at our board regarding the Eze situation, but credit to them here. They delivered on what was thought to be an impossible task.
If only we were like Chelsea at selling players we would be laughing!
It was definitely the comment of a troll
I wonder had we made a move for him before MGW and Eze he would have came? I think he was always a top target but we were scared of getting embarrassed by Chelsea , but in the process we got put in the mud by Forest and Goons!
That you, Daniel?

By all accounts we were talking to Simons back in May / June and at the start of the window he was out top #10 target. The fact we moved onto MGW, and then Eze shows we thought that he was unattainable. ITK suggested that Simons people reached out to us last Weds to resurrect our interest i.e. the player came to us, which is why it was so easy / quick to do across 48 hours.
Definitely need another. Tel and Odobert not reliable options yet.
Sure you can put a u21 GK to make up the 3 but you have to have 3.
If we put a u21 GK in the CL squad over Kinsky, he’s handing in a transfer request the next day, as he should.
Put this nonsense to bed, please.
Think he is a fan of the fat greek
Not sure I fancy a 33 year old Kane refusing to press and hogging free kicks tbh.
Never look back.
Yeah tbf a lot on here at the start of the window said Simons would be the best signing but we had no chance of getting him …. Funny how Sonny our last number 7 was not our “first choice” either …..
You could argue Xavi wanted any ‘top’ PL club and Chelsea were twerking for him early on. So that’s where he thought he was going so would have pushed to make it happen.
I think Tel is the left wing we brought in for this summer. Trouble is, it was before Frank came in. I’m not sure he is convinced yet. Plenty of time though.

They’ve been chasing him since he was about 10 years old…
They were ahead until he clocked they didn’t actually want to pay him market rates on wages. They strung him along all summer hoping that all his other options would sign a 10 and he’d only have them left.
Just say thank you to the fat Greek heroin dealer and Mr 1 in 5 Eze the gooner snake
So, it is rumoured that we are still after:
If we can only get one over the line, I think the extra defender is more practical than the LWF as we're still only a VdV hamstring away from disaster (although Savinho would be a statement signing that could take us to another level). But I do have high hopes for Odobert, and Johnson has shown he can do what he does from LWF, and Kulusevski will be like a new signing in Dec / Jan. Importantly, we could play the midfield that did amazingly against Man C with Kudus and Simons on the flanks.
- A LCB who can cover LB (Ake or Akanji)
- A LWF (Savinho, Lookman, Lee Kang-in)

Well ive been much more optimistic than the majority so far when it comes to this potential deal.
Yes his agent may have just popped back for a couple of days before he heads back but it seems unlikey imo.
If he was signing he would stick around savios camp and be around for signing day etc.
I hope im wrong as this was my no1 transfer choice since the day the story broke.
I think both Johnson and Tel (as was Sonny) are more suited to playing as an inside forward on the inside left channel and would be better playing alongside Solanke or Richy in a 4-4-2 / 3-5-2. We have options and may see that at some point.
