Transfers January 2022 - Transfer Window

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Can’t believe the bald cunt maggot is penny pinching over Adama and some bullshit fraud loan

Just pay up your worthless CUNT!
 
But we could have ENIC spending more money and still have a self sustaining model!

If not anything, investing in transfers could actually increase the value of the club by even more than we spent.
Ie if we spent £100m extra in transfers; the better footballing results, CL qualification, brand enhancement etc. may actually get back more than £100m.

Yes, they could speculate to accumulate more...... I'd like to see that. Not sure it's something I'm prepared to boycott the club over though.

However.

On numerous occasions since the summer I've said that the ensuing 12 months was crunch-time for me in terms of spending as I believe that with the stadium built and the bulk of covid in the rear mirror that we should be seeing an upturn in spending.

Since summer 19 we've spent in excess of 200m..... If not for covid, I think that that ought to have been more and thus think that upturn should now be resumed.

We were near the bottom with Woolwich from 2010-2020; but since then they have spent more than us.

Financial stats of this nature are just a picture of a moment in time..... Like I said a moment ago; we can endlessly pick dates and time-frames to reference if they suit our chosen narrative.... I'm trying to avoid doing that by not actively seeking out my own and just responding on face value to those put up by other people.

Even now, according to reliable sources (Ornstein), they have the funds to buy Vlahovic (who luckily doesn't want to go there); while we're penny pinching over whether we can get Adama on a loan with obligation to buy rather than normal transfer.

You're blurring the discussion between investment and general spending mate (2 diff. things).

The comment you're responding to was that of owner investment.... Which saw us both sat on 15m each.
 
Arcwho?

Someone posted a net investment chart here a number of days back and it showed that over the last TEN years very little seperated us, Arse & Liverpool on that front (yes, we were shown to be at zero)... I can't remember who it was that posted it or I'd 'go fishing'.
Ahhh... for the first time a chart gets posted and Airfixx Airfixx believes it...

A historic day for TFC
 
I have so little hope of getting any business done in this window. I at least hope that we move on some players we aren’t going to use like Bergwijn, Dele, Rodon, Ndombele, Doherty. Don’t want the club to have any excuses not be making moves early in the Summer.

We can’t move anyone without players coming in, squad isn’t that deep, we move say Bergwijn and Son and Lucas get injured it leaves a whole, same as moving Doherty or Rodon on.
 
Are you seriously saying that a tongue in cheek remark has led you (and others) to believe he definitely works for ENIC? Fucking hell, get a grip

Whilst I don’t think he is related or payroll, he seems intelligent yet no need for a job (judging by the daily post levels) you can see why folks think he’s ‘family’.

Think it’s a funny saga between him and ArcspacE ArcspacE
