Transfers Summer 2020 Transfer Thread

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Fabrizio and DiMarzio are highly reliable. Their translations from Italian to English are less than perfect though

Honestly, I find it extremely difficult to afford any of this jive a significant amount of credibility.

The paid by the inch lot were bad enough; but now things are just traffic driven it's even worse.
 
Who pays him for that?

Or is this me showing my ignorance with twitter and people like him are able to make money off twitter that I do not know about?

Income from the likes of twitter would be indirect, but like YT, Insta and all that shit there's a tipping point where if your profile is high enough you can start to monetize in various ways.

I've heard Sacks as a guest on Talksport FFS..... A cut n paste merchant being given international airplay.

Fair enough that makes sense.

I personally like the guy and take for what he is, but I know many get mad because they don't understand what he is doing and think that he is presenting everything as facts or about to happen.

The problem with transfer media is the sheer volume of clickbait rubbish ruin it for the very few who are genuine.

Romano
DiMarzio
Ornstein
Law
Schira
Kristof Terreur (Belgium and Holland)

When those guys talk about transfers they do so after doing the legwork to get credible stories. None of that Bale to Spurs or Gaitan to United yearly bollocks.

I've no issue with him specifically; he's just emblematic of the minefield of throwaway so called 'news' that's out there.

I dunno; maybe I'm just old.... Blows my mind that there's kids getting rich off of playing computer games on youtube.

EDIT: ...And, I like the pun-play of stating "Ricky Sucks" once in a while. :)

On the bright side Ashley Young is probably available again then, he's a winner isn't he? I mean he has won stuff right? He's probably won stuff, so just laying eyes on him in the car park will instantly upgrade our current bunch into lean mean winning machines right??

I'm clutching at straws here aren't I?
