His ability to just play football would be a welcome addition to our present defence...
If we’d signed him from the Norwegian 2nd div that would have been some serious scouting.
Everyone knows this name now.
Would still take some balls to throw serious money at the deal but a fun idea.
With no DOF or manager in, there isn’t much chance we are really doing a deal yet though
I like the idea of Gift and Destiny adding pace and hunger to our team.
Maybe he’s a bit of an Orban myth at this point. Won’t know until we sign him
Gift.... Destiny... As profound as these lads sound I always fancied a crack at this guy:
Isaac Success - Player profile
Isaac Success is a 29-year old football player aus Nigeria, (* 07.01.1996 in Benin City, Nigeria). Success is 01.01.2025 without a club since. He plays in the position Centre-Forward. His market value is €1.40m.
Though this lad never came through for us:
Quinton Fortune - Wikipedia
If he can then he would be the perfect “bridge” from Kane to Scarlett. Toney, Son and Richarlison is a very decent trio.
looks decent
For that pun, you deserve a sin bin orban

Hahah.....
Is that real?
You bet.
Another great one (to tie in making fun of the Dutch language in the other thread) was that Eljero Elia (remember when Spurs were linked with him?) was named after American R&B singer Al Jarreau.
Nice.
"Somewhere [near Stoke] by night [on a Tuesday]" coulda been a thing.

Quite the squad we have huh....
Really hope whoever we bring in gives younger players a real chance to play. Not expecting to really compete for anything next season, so let's see what we got.
With the right manager, a lot of our issues could be potentially solved with players already on the payroll.
A playing style that emphasizes pace and energy is naturally going to benefit our younger players.
There's a LOT of work to do, but our squad isn't as bleak as our current predicament suggests.
Has to happen.
Gift, Destiny, Slot, Son. We will have the greatest pun team of all time.
I get that point and where Toney has came from in his career in terms of level he’s played at he would’ve been in the category of not being a big earner and betting is a way to make more even though you’re never going to win. There’s definitely still a massive gambling culture in the game because these guys are just normal guys who like to do normal things.
It’s different if they have inside info because they are in a privileged position to use that to there advantage then that’s different but putting a treble on Stenhousemuir,Crewe and Sporting Gijon and getting in bother is bonkers
These players make millions. It’s not a hard rule to follow. Every sports league in the world will come down hard if it’s own players are gambling on it.
A lot has to go right for a club that a lot hasn't gone right for.
Can Gil & Sarr make an impact? Will Skipp take a step forward? A healthy Bissouma and Bentancur makes an area of weakness suddenly average to above average.
Huge questions about how Udogie, Porror and Spence will contribute.
Richarlison??
Could be some nice pieces, but how a manager puts it together is going to be interesting.
So many questions and i didn't even dive into defense
