Transfers Summer 2019 transfer thread

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

20 points is only 7 games. Having a team stay fit for a whole season is huge. Chemistry is tip-top, best players are actually playing. Competition for places... Morale stays high and no one has to fight back to form. It's a big psychological advantage.

Though, I do agree that we probably wouldn't have finished above them. But it would have been *much* closer.
Yeah we should be 5-10pts better off just for having players fitter. But if we say 20pts is only 7games then on the other hand Woolwich & United only have a game or 2 to make up on us. They will believe they can be 1 or 2 games better. I would take 3rd right now.
Injuries & who we sign & sell will have a big influence on where we finish.
 
He's a guy on the internet you never have to meet. Why you so bent out of shape? If he said it to me I'd laugh and move on. It obviously touched a nerve with you so put him on ignore and forget about it.

For what it's worth, I think this sums up GOAT GOAT perfectly:



I get it. You think he was out of line. That's fair enough. Move on now eh? Get back on to the transfer subject...your posts about that are riveting!

So you think a person telling me that I am a disgusting waste of oxygen and I should kill myself is just a bit of banter?

He's just the "funny old bully on the message board"

How about, he's a horrible cunt for saying it and if you think it's ok then I think that speaks volumes about your character.

Also, Airfixx Airfixx is a cunt for liking this post of yours and handwaving it away as well considering the amount of times he has had to condemn it.

This isn't just him having a foul mouth like the person you quoted said, that I can handle.

I am seriously done talking about this now anyway, stop quoting me about it, what's done is done.
 
Interesting that.
Clearly not moving for money as they would throw him silly money we would struggle to match. They could still beat any contract we put on the table, especially if they shift Pogba and Sanchez this summer.
I don't think RM or Barca are coming in for him this summer, especially not RM with their current outlay, so I reckon he will pen a new deal come august. They will struggle to offload many unwanted players this summer due to wages and the same reason will prevent any coming in as p/ex for Erisken.
Eriksen for a few more years for just his wages is a no brainer! Deal breaker might be he only wants to sign for 1 or 2 more years & then reassess his options.
 
As far as I can tell, we haven't bought any one yet. Still time though.
Obamacare is a swear word because it smacks of helping those less fortunate which of course is not the American way. Helping anyone less fortunate than yourself means that your a red under the bed, commie, pinko, socialist anti American subversive element. Also it's Trump's ambition to undo anything Obama did. Jesus not a racist though. He only hates everyone who doesn't look think act and break the law like him. Oh yes, and fuck their daughter
Jesus not a racist?! No one said he was!!

I agree with you and think you’re being entirely reasonable in this discussion. And yeah, 20 points is significant, no question on my end.

But I think we can easily win 3-4 more games this season. I also think that Liverpool (and/or City) could lose 3-4 more. That’s not suggesting a complete implosion on their part, and it’s certainly not beyond the realm of possibility. Same with us winning a few more. So that’s 18-24 points, and it’s a different picture entirely.

I just think with Liverpool in particular, the fact that they lost only once is insane. No way that continues and it doesn’t mean they’re destined for the trash heap or anything. I can acknowledge that they’re an excellent team (not to Liverpool supporters of course!), but eventually that kind of thing evens out.
 
I was told to go support Liverpool because I said last summer their window was brilliant and alisson and van dijk were world class...
Ha. I said klopp seems like a good manager & got told the same. People saying van dijk was crap despite all his good performances was similar to me saying Ronaldo was average despite the facts, all because I hated him so bad.

I believe I said it was fair enough that you took offence. Personally I wouldn't but you're within your rights.

If I thought he really meant it and really expected you to listen to him, that he has that power over you, then I'd condemn him. He talks to everyone like that though - you're not special. I don't take it seriously and neither should you.

Anyway, Levy is a good egg eh?
 
I really don't like Salah. But he likes himself enough for everybody. Also, apart from a talent for being in the right place at the right time for easy tap ins, I don't rate him at all. He'll be lost at RM
I don't think salah will do as well as he did the season before last for liverpool. Still rather he left as he is a good player.

I really can’t comprehend the feeling of not being able to rate highly rivals players or managers. If they are all so shit or overrated we so damn good should be fulfilling our trophy cabinet? There’s not denying Liverpool team and dept is superior to ours at the moment since the last summer. They lost the champions league final because they leaked a lot of goals and their keeper was average. Got a world class center back and goalkeeper and look at them now. The same can be done for us I really think if we get two top midfielders and a great right back.
