Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Romano corroborating what Ali Gold said a few days ago in that we're not pursuing Eriksen:



Why? Maybe to keep 2 foreign places in the squad open for 2 attackers who fit in 3-4-3? R&R combo would be the dream.


I still just think it’s a case of playing time. We were probably just looking at him as a rotational option whilst his priority is to be a nailed on starter. Fair from both perspectives. Would have been a good free option but we are a place where we can’t guarantee him starting 80% of the games
 
Don’t forget 20m plus on Sessegnon with those 2 in Poch’s last window. 100m and they say Levy didn’t back him.
Might seem a lot to buy the 2 R’s but they are both proven PL players which takes the risk out of the signings.
Richarlison gets criicised for his pathetic play acting. We can do without that. Sure Conte can knock that out of him. It is a fact that Richarlison record in the last 2 seasons is as good , if not better , than Jota before his move to Liverpool. People think that Jota has always been a goal machine when , in fact, he hasn’t.
If Everton want Winks and we can get 20m-22m from them and we can secure Richarlison as part of the deal and pay another 30msh, tie up Bergy for 21.5m and get shot of Lucas for 10m and buy Raphina for 60/65m plus get rid of Lo Celso, plus Royal, we would still have plenty of money for defensive additions and ive not even mentioned getting rid of Ndom and Davison…do the math…whats more we know that even if we were to buy Raphina, we would still be looking for a striker, so unless Conte doesnt like Richarlison or we want a cheaper striker( how much cheaper if we could do a winks plus cash deal)…

People don't like us doing business like this and would rather we spent loads of dosh and as a result have a high net spend just because it shows ambition
 
I couldn’t careless mate. It reeks of small time Spurs of old. If Harry gets injured or we need to mix it up with the massive amount of fixtures this season with CL, I don’t want Pukki being a bloody striker option 🤦‍♂️ Think big mate. Would Liverpool etc have him as their back up? We go for quality, spend huge on Raphinha or Richarlison and we rotate. They will get plenty of games.
imagine in every match selection to bench 2 between son, kane, richarlison, raphinha, kulusevsky
I want to think big, but also don't create a mess in the dressing room
maybe pukki is too low-level for a club who have the ambition to win. we could go on someone else (morata?depay?)

Part of being a big club mate. Liverpool bench Jota. They win titles and trophies. If we want to be with the big boys, we need quality in depth. No more shite like Pukki.
 
Chelsea are sniffing around Richarlison.

I think we need to move quickly.
If you know that Cheski are after him....then so would he and his agent. And they are not in a hurry as they know time is on their side and will go for the best offer, simple as that.
It's very rare for a big transfer to go under the radar nowadays. That's what agents are paid for (or rather pay themselves for doing).
 
we really broke them.........

where do they get their cockiness? it's insane




250kpw and a starting role (world cup year btw)

vs

100-150kpw to be Kane's fluffer


Let's face it; he's not going there for Thursday night football and 'The Process'.

The muggs don't realise that our interest will have likely bumped the price-tag up too.

Agree completely and the thought of a front 5 rotating of Kane/Son/Kulusevski/Raphina/Richarlison is absolute insane.

I'd say the issue is offloading Lucas..

No indication that Lucas is off.

Winks - 22
Berg - 20
Lo Celso - 22
Régulion - 23

That’s a total of 87m.

We’ve spent 30 on Bissouma. If you add Rich AND Raph then that’s 115m on top. So a deficit of about 60m before we’ve addressed défence or rwb and without any more significant money to be made from sales.

And that’s if Romero/Kulu money has been budgeted from last year.

There is no way we are signing two new expensive forwards and this is one of those weird unrealistic internet fantasies. Along with step sister porn.
 
Too much hype around certain players, these days, for me.

#Raphina

Getting less excited as window goes on tbh.

Shouldn't have put hopes in us singing a player from inter, for starters, tho.

Pissed me off.

Cunts.

Anyway:

Hincapie/Zabarnyi, Ndicka, Kostic, Spence, Eriksen, CDK*

Do this sort of thing and I'll be happy.

*you bring me this fucking player, paratici!!!!
 
Barca, as it stands right now, are holding up certain deals while they're sorting out their financial mess. As for now, they can only spend 1/3 of any income from transfers but if they can generate "enough" income - like selling their TV rights etc. - they can spend all of their transfer income on new players.
F.ex., Raphinha is all set on Barca (had apparently agreed personal terms) and is ready to wait for the situation at Barca to be sorted out.

It's not happening. They've faced difficulty registering some of their free transfers, much less expensive signings like Raphina.
