Transfers Summer 2019 transfer thread

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

He’s a good player. But you wouldn’t do this comment if wasn’t for the Ajax game. We both know ;)
Not quite....
Here’s from last summer when everyone wrote off Moura and wanted Martial:

And when Poch and him agree that Martial is not worth 60M, because we have three times the player in Moura who cost 25M

And here’s from May 6th, two days before Ajax.
Regarding Eriksen this summer:
Sell. Our attack bores the shit out of me.
Time for Moura to be the man, like the Sissoko emergence.

Kane, Son, Moura, Dele as an option and sign Grealish.

Always rated Moura, while people keep fawning over Sessengon as a winger, and crap like Zaha and Martial who have two good games a season.

Let’s put it this way. Lucas is a good player but he’s not world class. Son is a better player and for me has to always start for us. Lucas is very hot and cold. But a class player too.
 
I can only imagine that if we're letting discussions with Trippier get this far then we're pretty confident of having a replacement lined up (assuming KWP doesn't get a promotion).

Wonder who is most likely...

I don’t think Lucas has had a fair crack at a run of games in one position to judge him fully yet which is mad when you think he’s been here 18 months but that could easily be why he is hot and cold. I hate the term world class in football as it means something entirely different to each individual person.

At the end of the day you don’t score the most important hat trick our club has ever seen if you are hot and cold, especially as he followed up with another one shortly after the Huddersfield match!
 
Lloris; Wan-Bissaka, Sanchez, Vertonghen, Rose; Ndombele, Winks; Son, Alli, Eriksen; Kane.

Subs: Gazzaniga, Aurier, Dunk, Sissoko, Grealish, Sessegnon, Lucas


Just looking through what Alasdair Gold think our business will be this summer. He reckon if Levy backs Poch as promised then this will our starting 11 and squad next season.

Son easily gets the nod over Lucas. But both are 26, and I'd like to see us keep both as long as possible. Like Son, Lucas never stops running. For good, and obvious, reasons we all fawned over his 3 goals. But watching that 2nd half 4-5 times now I noticed him full sprint/pressing chasing down balls and causing turnovers after the 90th minute. He was gassed, but still running as hard as he could, just to win the ball back never mind to get a shot off.

I'd gladly take another player who can challenge him and Son, but that would be for a matter of depth, rather than straight replacing Lucas.

Lucas is a warrior in the field always. That’s not up to discussion. I just think we should add another player into the mix to challenge him because Lamela is broken for good
 
Says the man that ignored the thrust of my post and pulled me up for a technicality. Perhaps the suggesting would work both ways.

In this instance, sadly for you, no it doesn't.

....And no, I didn't ignore the thrust of your post. I acknowledged it.

Your point stood without that added on false-hood. You're better than that.... I thought...?

No, You didn't acknowledge my point in your first reply when you so pedantically wrote:

Meh.

Just stick to the facts of your point then.... It stands by itself. The embellishment and detraction only dents the credibility of your statement.

Now since that's quote surely you are not suggesting I got this wrong too? Look hard so you can find another distinction that makes no difference.

Your point stood without that added on false-hood. You're better than that.... I thought...?
Wow! that surely connotes something underhanded or nefarious doesn't it? Maybe not but it does seem a strong way to word a very simple mistake/oversight. Nah, I will give benefit of the doubt.

Put it another way.... If your point is as strong as you suggest, then why lie?
Holy fuck you have gone over the edge. FFS, lie???? Are you accusing me of intentionally stating something I know to be wrong in order to deceive those on the receiving end of the communication? Are ya?
