CP just got scammed. Not worth half that money tbh. Good that we could recover some of the money.

Ex-Spurs Player Brennan Johnson

We have to replace him with better, proven player. If not, it’s just going into the circle of buying and selling average players.
We’ve replaced him with Kudus.
I’m all for increasing the quality of the first team and squad and a Johnson is obviously upgradeable. Just not convinced we’ve done so with the right player.
An upgrade to me, is someone who offers Johnson’s strength of scoring, with more in other attacking areas.
the bigger teams cant get away with limited players who can only play on the counter, you need actual intelligent footballers who can do more than run into a bit of space.
That kind of player aint coming to us in our current state.
I've watched him live enough times to know that selling him now (it should have been in the summer) is the correct move. The thread is littered with the reasons why. I wont repeat myself or others.
probably more likely is we bring back bryan gil or timo werner
Hang on, I thought EVERY single Spurs fan DIDN'T WANT HIM?!
And then after Frank is sacked, the next manager no longer favours Kudus.
Cycle rinse and repeat.
£35M for Brennan is pretty good considering his all round ability, however he is one of the best finishers at the club.
If he isnt in much of Frank's plans then its sensible to sell him and bring someone else better in.

I don’t understand this, sorry. Can you explain further please?
It really is that simple.more luck to him.
People whinge about him then give out when hes sold. We say we need to move on average players quicker and this seems to whats happening here.
Best of luck to him. Always be remembered for bilbao
Very well put
He scored 5 goals in all competitions in 23/24 to become our 4th highest goal scorer, joint with Romero, for that season.
He scored 18 goals in all competitions in 24/25 to become our leading goal scorer for that season.
Other things being equal, there's no reason to assume the latter [and not the former] to reflect better his abilities as a player. Yet that seems to be the implication whenever the phrase our top goal scorer gets thrown around.
