option to buy Spence, but we’re covering all wages…
I know this hasnt worked out, a bit like the Sess deal went south - however I would still like to see the club taking a chance on Young English Talent , sometimes it pays off Like the Dele for £5 million.So we bought Spence as a 'club signing' for 20 mil hardly use him then sell him for 10. Nothing makes sense with Spence.
Good point.
If both Werner and Dragusin get their debuts against Untied, that would be the joint most January signings to actually debut in January for us as we have had in the last 12 years.
Pretty crazy stat. We've really loved shopping late in January historically.
I know he gets a lot of Stick here, but in the German League I reckon you could do a lot worse than Dier on the bench! Hopefully he gets the move as could actually see him doing very well there.
Wonder if the possibility for this helped:

And in Ange's first season as Spurs boss we've bought two centrebacks and look likely to shift out two dud centrebacks, Sanchez and Dier.You're talking about money spent, the post you're replying to is in reference to actual players for positions that needed filling.
If we spent £500m on a superstar forward, we'd still have left Ange short as we needed center backs.
I can't, I've just been asked to shadow the guy from the moment he lands til he's signed on the dotted line so we don't do another Willian. I'm allowed to open fire on any approaching Chelsea reps. Perks of the job and all that.
Not that surprised at all these ExSpences for this player. He's not called Income after all...So we bought Spence as a 'club signing' for 20 mil hardly use him then sell him for 10. Nothing makes sense with Spence.
20m was upper limit, doubt he hit his targetsSo we bought Spence as a 'club signing' for 20 mil hardly use him then sell him for 10. Nothing makes sense with Spence.

I think we’re clouded by premier league transfer fees. I just can’t imagine Genoa drop 10mil on him, unless he really impresses.This comes off as a great deal for Genoa. Buy option at 10m?
DJed will athletically dominate in Serie A and could end up an asset they can sell for triple that at least
He cost 12 million. Add ons would be 20 if could be bothered.I know this hasnt worked out, a bit like the Sess deal went south - however I would still like to see the club taking a chance on Young English Talent , sometimes it pays off Like the Dele for £5 million.
Guys, come on now...can we all just chill and enjoy this exciting signing?
