Transfers The Summer Transfer Edging Thread 2025

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Having spent a good time reading posts on here and thinking that Simons and Simmons were two different transfer targets, I've now got it into my head that Ake and Akanji are one and the same person.

Never grow old, young 'uns.

Palhinha has caught the eye in many of his minutes and Bentancur was being lauded as being back to his best.

But suddenly they are shit and we should have played Bergval and Gray?

Both are still learning and probably would have been massively exposed by Bournemouths pressing and hard work; if anything Bergval perhaps should have played instead of Sarr, but yeah it’s on Palhinha and Bentancur.

I can imagine the meltdown had we started with Gray and Bergval and the exact same thing happened. It happened because we weren’t at it and Bournemouth wanted it more, and we had no answer to their pressing.

A lot of people saw Palinha and Bentancur were the root of our issues yesterday. Frank also did based on his comments and first subs. And Bournemouth won't be the only team that approach us like that if we settle on them as our starting double pivot.

Expect them to struggle with Fulham, Brentford, Newcastle, Everton, Brighton, maybe even fucking Leeds. Basically any team that does what we do and adjusts their system to the opposition.
