Transfers January Transfer Thread 2024

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Richarlison was just a bizarre signing that I honestly don’t think any Spurs fan could offer any universally accepted logical reason as to why we decided to spend 60 million on him.
He was as close to a guaranteed 12+ league goals a season in English football. That costs 60m.

Didn't work out that way but thats the logic i always saw. Guaranteed 12 with the hope of more in a better team than risk a player from elsewhere.
 
Poch is pretty shit at picking players, honestly, so I don't blame them.
yeah, disappointing news. He could have really fucked shit up for them.

Still time, hopefully he does his usual shit demanding more and more control over transfers if/when he starts to get some results and more clout.
 
This would be annoying. I think he’d be the perfect rotation option for left back for us. He’s tidy on the ball, quick, got a good shot and cross on him.

Disagree with the final point - end product always seems poor.
Both both defensively and pace wise he’s solid as anyone and agree could be a more than adequate Udogie backup
 
If you include Sanchez and they all leave that is 4 vacant spots to fill.

We issued our squad list without Sanchez but still filled all possible squad places - so if 3 now leave we have 3 vacancies not 4.

Admittedly Perisic occupies a squad list - I guess club will now have a better idea of whether he will be fit before the end of the season and whether he merits a squad place which might give you the 4th spare squad space

I think you’re on the right track with your logic, but it’s a very flawed and narrow minded way of thinking from our ownership, considering the actual factual evidence from Richarlisons time in the PL pre Spurs.
 
Of the 3 English 25 year old back ups we’ve been linked with - Tosin, Godfrey and Kelly - im most keen on Godfrey

Possible free transfer?

Nothing wrong that a good CB in January wouldn’t fix.

Well, two good CB’s.

Maybe a decent 8 as well.

Oh, and a new front 3 or 4 who aren’t a bunch of offside bumbling cunts who can’t press.

Ok, so nothing that 7 players in January can’t fix.
