Transfers Summer 2020 Transfer Thread

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

We all read shit and weigh it up and tend to lean on the side that suits our own "agenda", you and Rumsfeld are no different or less slippery than any of us in this respect.
Feels good to think that everyone is as disingenuous as you doesn't it BC? So good that you even happily admit to being a scoundrel right here. Trump's got nothing on you. But you're both proud of it. Amazing. Well not everyone can be painted with you wicked brush my man. Back to the airfixx realm you go.
 
And here is your tabloid story, bus-conductor bus-conductor . Two months after Hytner's story. £80m. I am really doing my level best to be fair. Maybe his crap form contributed to the price reduction.


Damn right too.... 18 months left..... Uber-clubs like RM should pay that kind of money if they genuinely wanted him.... They paid 100m for Hazard with only 12 months left on his deal... Coutinho, O.Dembele all going for stupid money.....

How little should we have been asking pre his final year?

Were there any actual offers from the big clubs he wanted in Jan 19?
 
Brilliant...let me guess. Only you are allowed an opinion because you have been to every game in the last 40 years. Personally I prefer old white Hart Lane, but the new stadium is spectacular as a venue.
I'm not fat either dickhead, never have been.
I have always been trim and fit, I guess some have all the luck eh lol....i dont drink diet drinks either as I really don't need to.
Go and have a cry to mummy, I'm guessing you probably still live at home and dream of meeting girls/boys...

Youre wrong.

I live rent free in your head

When he can make such short work of speaking about £250m like it's buttons, that's all you need to know. After making me go all around the fucking country to find out where it came from.

And no answer to the comments from Elliott McCabe, managing director in Bank of America Merrill Lynch’s sports finance and advisory group.
 
unless you have changed your mind again.
iu

That is not true. I have known you for 9 years. In the beginning, I was pro-Levy. It is only in the last few months that I have decided I have had enough.
Can confirm as true. Totally surprising for BC to make a false claim to put you on the defensive because his argument is weak. :pocheyes:
 
Further price reduction. 6 Aug 2019.

According to AS, Spurs have told foreign clubs they’ve more than halved Eriksen’s asking price, meaning he could move on for as little as £50m if he transfers overseas.

However, this discount does NOT apply to Premier League sides, who will allegedly have to stump up more than £60m for the midfielder’s services.

Again... Why the hell not.... If Hazard was worth 100m to RM, fuckin' right they can pay 50m for CE.
 
Never seen him - any good?

Only seen him a few times but is very powerful, quick and aggressive with long legs, bit like Doucoure at Watford in style. Spoke to bus conductor a while back who watches the French league more than me and he is also a fan.

Thing is though you can’t always judge a player off two or three games. I saw Aurier 2-3 times and he played well prior to coming here but you hope the scouts have done a lot more research.
 
Oh I don't believe Eriksen was ever worth 130m :eriksenserious:

Another point why I personally have a problem with believing that the crazy price tag scared away clubs that would've otherwise been prepared to make a decent bid: Where were all those clubs next January? No crazy price tag that month but it was only Inter that was serious. I personally believe no club Eriksen fancied was ever prepared to pay a decent sum for him in August or January, but coming January he became desperate and settled for Inter.
Agreed on never being worth it.

But as far as the last paragraph, So how do you explain our genius negotiator in chief allowing a player to go into his18months of contract then? Surely he couldhave gotten more than 17M (was that the number in Jan?) in the summer. And I think we both agree that CE was worth more than that number.

If the player decides he's going to wind his deal down, you can't force him out of the club..... Anyway thanks to your buddy RESPECT THE COCK RESPECT THE COCK we can see that it was lack of interest rather than over-pricing that kept him here.

Don't worry because 6 months to a year from now his position will have evolved and your perspectives will be aligned. It goes like that sometimes. That is unless Poch can still be blamed for it somehow...or Sissoko is still here.
