Transfers Summer 2026 Transfer Thread

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Baleba is a ball carrier too and it seems he is top of DeZerbi 's list

You are right he is but he is much more disciplined and typically sits centrally in front of the back four. This kid could be reigned in a little but he does like a carry the ball all over. It would be a big ask to not only come into the PL as a starter (which is what we need) plus also learn to play the position differently to how he has been.

Im interested to see who we end up with in CM thats for sure as its very pivotal to making a RDZ team work well
 
Men of culture, this my friends, is Kelci Bowers.

Why am I telling you this?

She is Mrs Senesi apparently. And she's also leaving Bournemouth....

Fuck's going on with X these days, comments under this post are an utter mess, so much rage baiting.

X was ruined when Must bought it and monetised it. Now you get people intentionally rage baiting to try and earn literally pennies.

Loads of accounts from Africa and Asia in particular see it as a way to try and make a living.

You hardly ever see any authentic posts, particularly under big accounts like Romano's. As these bait accounts see posting under his tweets as a way to get engagement. So that's why it's all such a fucking mess.

Be really great if we can hide posts from certain regions.
 
Bots and worse, people trying to get likes from bots. Replies are intentional ragebait to secure attention and replies to make £2 a month.

The entire platform is just full of garbage, and unlike here, it’s not even human garbage.

I just said the same and then saw your post. Explained perfectly. It's a cesspit nowadays.

Dead Internet Theory. Bots replying to bots. Humans replying /Arguing to/with bots.

It's a mess. And like you say, many accounts are posting deliberately ragebaiting content, to increase engagement to make £2 a month.

The content has gotten so low, that instead of encouraging good discussion on there, it's sunk to the lowest possible denominator.

And it's all because of monetisation. If they couldn't make money, there'd be no need for all the bots and rage baiting accounts.

Minimum we need and arguably we need 2x CMs instead of 1 because we have such an awkward mix of cm's currently. They all need to be starting quality too.

Seems like a hell of a lot especially when you factor in that we need 10ish outgoings.

Long summer ahead
 
Ridiculous that it's taken two 17th placed finishes mind you.

I remember a few years back some posts on this forum warning with Kane leaving and when Son leaves if we aren’t careful we will end up in a relegation battle and it got laughed off the forum and I thought at the time that’s a very arrogant attitude to dismiss us getting into a relegation battle.

The league has changed. TV money means even the likes of Brentford are rich and all they need to do is buy a bunch of good Brazilians and Spanish players and with a good manager they will be a good side. There used to be 10 shit teams, now 1-2 shit teams so you can’t just do a Lange stress purchase and write the season off.

If we ain’t good we will be in more relegation battles. Only way for club to avoid this is to build an elite squad, we have to spend big to save money.
