Transfers Summer 2019 transfer thread

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

How can spurs fans still not rate winsky boy?

Tried to post an image but didn’t work. Inconceivable, really.

Doesn't score or assist. Must be shit.

His silkiness is far sexier than a goal IMO. What he does is magisterial.

Loved Dembele though.

Fancy shoulder drop looks better than passing a football, I guess.

Wink’s has one hell of a shoulder drop himself. His pirouettes are things of beauty

I read £160 but either way this is a ton of money. It’s sets the tone of the market, usually this would be good for us as we generally buy more than we sell but it’s highly likely we will have a higher net spend... we’re gonna get less bang for our buck basically. Chelsea screwed us once again
Chelski would pimp their own mothers and sisters on the street and then fuck them afterwards, cunts!
 
Winks passing is very limited. You'll notice he only passes to the near man basically recycling the ball. We need a midfielder who has a strong passing range.
I really like Winks as a player and think he does have and has shown promise as a player. This station to station passing has been bugging me. It has gotten so bad that I'm starting to wonder if it is tactical instruction. To what benefit I will never know but in the CL final he passed up some clear passes to open players only to pass it 3 yards to a player that would then pass to the player Winks' could have eaily passed to initially. but Winks' pass in these instances serve no purpose other than to allow the defense to remain organized but shift 3 yards further up the field. Why even pass it?
 
Wan Bissaka all but a Utd player apparently....

Forget these Ajax players too, they are all off to help Real & Barca rebuild.....

The summer we might actually have some coin to spend half of Europe’s traditional big spenders are rebuilding like fuck.....
Also expect City to swallow up a Kompany replacement....Chelsea will probably have a new manager and no doubt their transfer ban will be overturned....
The new CL winners will have pull too, and fuck knows what them clowns down the road do......

Gonna be a busy summer!!
 
Taking a rummage through the bins of the continental super clubs, what strikes everyone's fancy?

Malcom? Thomas Meunier? Mateo Kovacic? Draxler? Cheeky bid for Renato Sanches?

Draxler would be awesome and probably would be the cheapest.
Malcom at 40m and Kovacic at 60m seem too expensive.
I doubt Bayern will want to sell Sanches.
Meunier would be interesting if he can play CB too. Can he?

Exactly my thoughts. He is a neat and tidy player who is great to have when you want to maintain possession I suppose. But when you are a goal down like we saw in the Final, having two blokes in central midfield who are neither goal threats and defense splitting passes to their name is just redundant and limits our offensive capabilities.
 
Papers now jumping on the cash plus Draxler deal for Eriksen.

Out of interest, if the only offer we got this summer was £30m plus Draxler, would you take it?

Surely we'd have to. The risk of one more season and then him walking on a free would be too great otherwise.

I'm sure if he stayed to see out his contract he'd play exceptionally though. He'd be wanting an amazing season just before he became a free agent to maximise the gains of his next club's contract.

30 is too little.. atleast 50 mil + Draxler.

the 50 can be used with a slight top-up to get Lo Celso. After which Levy just needs to find enough $ for Ndombele and Sessegnon to end our summer window incomings.

still think we'd end up with net +ve summer transfer spending
 
People on this forum are acting like we can just go out and rustle up some more top 6 nation-trained players if we need to. The actual truth is, we've utterly failed to sign any such players in the last many years. We straight up do not have the cash to sign top 6 quality English talent.

Agree.... but why didn’t we sign someone like Maddison last season? £20m then.... £75m now....

Need to realise there are no more Dele’s @£5m... but £10-15m will still pick up talent before a season in the PL makes it +£50m just to have a conversation with a sleazy agent....

Confusing isn't it, this football thing?
Maybe you should follow swimming, you know - first one to touch the wall after they do enough lengths.
So much easier to work out.
