I think we need to take a moment amongst all this mayhem to think about Trix and Hercules, both have been well and truly exposed for the attention seeking charlatans they are, RIP.

Can we also stop including Porro and Kulu deals in this window, how many times/windows do we need to sign them, there deals are done in previous windows and like other signings money is due every yr, don't let the bald c#nt convince you he has spent more this window than he actually has.

We need to invest the Kane money wisely, top CH would be my priority, unless Ange is convinced VDV is that, then someone like Tosin will suffice, but we cannot be depending on likes of Dier/Sanchez or Davies long term.
Winger/false nine would be nice as well, as would a quality midfielder if PEH leaves. Another young development talent would be good to add as well.

Doubt we will see all three first teamers, as we have all been here before, the "we tried" excuse will no doubt roll out, but hopefully Ange gets a few in to help him in his first season managing us with one arm tied behind his back. If he succeeds it will be in spite of Levy and Enic rather than because of them.

Why don't we just go by transfermarkt instead of trying to play accountants? Genuinely I don't get this.

Are we really pretending most people counted Porro for the January window? Kulusevski's fee was just agreed this window, how could you possibly attribute it to any other window?

Of course. But the scumbag CEO sets the highest prices possible, yet does the bare minimum to create an illusion of faux ambition

ENIC’s model doesn’t work in this age of hyper-inflation caused by doped sports-washers at home and abroad.
The increase in match day revenue from the new stadium doesn’t buy a half-decent, EPL proven HG midfielder. That probably wasn’t expected to be the case.
They need to sell to sports washers for us to compete. No sane business person would buy a club like Spurs that’s expected to compete against dopers. One year into his tenure, an 11th placed Boehly is already looking for an extra 500 million investment.

Why don’t the disgusting little thieves also sell a small part (500M) of their stake to create funds to compete with Villa and co?

What is their plan? Will they please just fuck off and be gone? Ryan Reynolds has put more dough into fucking Wrexham than Lewis the Leach has done in 23 years? Cunts (jelly and ice cream)
 
Anyone looking forward to our Chairman’s video 💪 explaining the Kane sale . He can set out his latest vision as the previous 87 strategies are now obsolete and yet another new direction is needed. Come on Dan we need you at your Churchillian best right now

"I'm shit and useless and Harry realized this years back but I've been clinging on to him here so he can prop us up."

Publicly, City didn't even reach 100m until the tail end of the trf window; it was a fucking joke....... They made a mug of Kane in the process; clearly hoping he'd go 'full cunt' to allow them to absolutely rinse us........ All cos a) they wanted to spent the money on Grealish instead and b) they were never all-in on Harry anyway cos they knew they had Haaland on the back-burner.

Fuck City......... This has turned out much better.

Not this again:angeshock:.......City didn't bid anything because Levy refused to entertain any talks or bids from City. Levy point blank refused to negotiate with any PL club, he did it then just like he refused to now and as a result Kane has ended up abroad at Bayern.

 
Don't we need to put our registered squad in tonight? I know you can make changes to it until the deadline but I swear there's normally one before the first matchday. With our squad we'd be struggling to fit them in.

1. Vicario
2. Forster (HG)
3. Austin (HG)
4. Reguilon
5. Sanchez
6. Emerson
7. Dier
8. Romero
9. Sessegnon (HG)
10. Porro
11. Tanganga (HG)
12. Davies (HG)
13. Van de Ven
14. Skipp (HG)
15. Hojbjerg
16. Bissouma
17. Perisic
18. Lo Celso
19. Bentancur
20. Maddison (HG)
21. Son
22. Richarlison
23. Gil
24. Kulusevski
25. Solomon

Under 21's: Phillips, Udogie, Sarr, White, Veliz
Left Out: Lloris, Whiteman, Spence, Ndombele, Kane

That leaves us still one homegrown player short, so we'd be ineligible. Could just drop out Bentancur for the time being but shows how much we need to thin still if we want to get some more in.
 
If we get Orban or a similar profile young striker and another top CB I won't be too gutted with the window, no one can really say what Richy could achieve if he was our no. 9 and playing 90 min week in week out, if he was getting double figures from wide left in a really really shit Everton there's nothing to say he can't get 20+ for us. Most of our first team aren't as bad as last season made them look, if Richy has a shit year I will accept he's a flop and we need to cut oour losses, but anyone completely writing him off is just as much of a mug as the people wanting to give him a chance. If there were any young top class strikers capable of replacing Kane available for the same or less money, Bayern probably would have been looking at them instead, no?
