Transfers January Transfer Thread 2024

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Sometime a club also need stop-gap short term solutions. And in the case of hiring Conte it did work quite well for 1 season.
Did you say Conte was shit when Spurs qualified for the CL? Did you say Conte was shite when Spurs beat Woolwich 3-0 in that all-important game to qualify for the CL or when Son become (joint) EPL top scorer? Did you say Conte was shit when Spurs signed Bentancur, Kulu, Bissouma & Udogie (all bargains) and Porro due to him wanting them?
I was never thrilled by his footballing style and some of his rants and, yes, one got the feeling that Spurs was below his standards, etc…but Spurs really needed someone to tell L & L and the board some unpleasant truths about Spurs and the way they run the club and instill some anti-Spursy mentality. And I dare to say that he served that purpose well.
So even in retrospect I disagree that hiring him was “shit”. But it was time for him to go. And who were the other options back then anyway?
Besides, shit can be used as compost for new things can grow.

I'm not talking about what he did, ultimately he did well in his first season, son goldenboot etc... blah blah

But for a club like ours hires like that don't work because they are opposites therefore it's a shit appointment, sometimes managers don't fit clubs and vice versa and this was the case here.

We didn't learn anything that we didn't already know during his time and his rant had nothing to do with this club finally waking up, the wheels were set in motion the moment we hired Paratici back in 2021.
 
Been posted plenty of times. Do your research, lazy.

Here’s just one of the countless posts about it though. You’re welcome.

Fully expect you to choose not to believe it though coz you don’t admit when you’re wrong.

Goat, old boy.

I'm reasonably confident that 'Poseidon' is a little rascal, poking fun at the true king of ITKs, being Hercules.
 
Postecoglpu done really well so far but way too much extrapolation to suit

Proper assessment will only come after 2 or 3 transfer windows, and the kind of progress that will be needed to enable the required incomings.

We will see om Werner,, regardless of how his arrival came about.

Let's not forget necessity drove this loan deal.

No he’s not.

Besides which, there’s been plenty of links, even o’keefe said it was down to Ange re signing Werner.

I’ve ended MVP MVP for today and will now enjoy a nice walk and a skinny soy caramel latte. 😊

Boooooooom!
