Transfers The Winter Transfer Thread - 25/26

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Fair points but if he needs time why are we even looking at him... we are in the shit right now and need help right now. Not more long term "they might be good one day" players...


Well this is my point

And I say this as someone who loves "they might be good one day" buys

We have bigger/greater priorities right now, IMO

Unless this lad is in fact first team ready...
 
Personally i am writing him off because we’re signing him
Okay... I get your logic... it's us, when was the last time we signed anyone good who was not a mega transfer deal... probably Sonny and that was over ten years ago. Jesus... yeah I'm on board... this kid is gonna be shite!!!

Yep

I might be being naive but I don't think ENIC would dare leave this month without bringing in 2 or 3 players of objective quality.

That would put them at the mercy of so much criticism that it would make anything directed at Levy seem tame.

Deals are being worked and bids are being made. For which manager, we will find out soon enough.

I certainly hope you are right

I said similar in the Vinai thread, in essence - there could be a lot going on we just dont see right now

But the general incompetence around the club isnt inspiring me
 
They can't afford to be seen to be incompetent. They know it.

Watch this space. Get some snacks and a few beers.
It’s not stopped them before

Who was the last decent January signing we made?

Dragusin - trying to get rid of
Werner - proper shit but would probably start for us at the moment
Tel - might come good now but not has it taken a while - still not a first team regular
Danso - decent player but doesn’t get in the first team regularly

This kid better start liking cold weather, racing whippets and eating gravel because he will be on loan up north in no time
 
I'm going balls out... Romero ain't the brilliant defender that numerous sources suggest he is... I like him, I genuinely think he loves the club but he's let us down too many times, bad defending, suspensions, time to go... Get Vuskovic back off loan and get Gleison Bremer. Get rid also Bentancur, Udogie, Richy and Solanke
Get Gallagher, Guirassy and Akliouche
 
City is spending 65M for a world class player in a spot they're already 3-4 deep.
We're lowballing a 19yr old that is on absolutely nobody's radar to plug the 13th biggest hole in our sinking ship.
Definitely the behaviour of an ownership group that has champions league trophy ambitions.
ffs this club.

Okay, just to br honest here.

City absolutely don't have 3-deep class players in that position. Or they would not be chasing Semenyo.

Savinho is nothing special, Doku, one of those really weird players. Looks brilliant at times but something isn't there.

And mostly., we aren't City, who operate differently but bizarrely are lacking in a way I can't quite define.

I get your point byt you are comparing apples with pears, and failing to see past City's failure in their acquisitions.
 
I honestly don’t think that would be anywhere near as bad a signing as people make out. Especially on an initial loan. It doesn’t solve our lack of midfield passers, but fuck me, it would give us a bit of energy in the middle of the park.
Yes to be fair he's better than what we have so a first team player. Just dont think he solves any of our numerous issues and its yet another no 8. Could be a decent leader i suppose.
