Transfers Summer Transfer thread - 2024

[Starks]

So you believe we made a bid for Neto?

Click to shrink...

Yes.

Then you believe we had an interest in Doue?

Click to shrink...

Yes.

Do you also believe we had 3 deals with the green light and the club was waiting on other parties?

Click to shrink...

No chance.

If you do then for sure you can’t be trying to claim Kingsley Coman has ever been at the forefront of the plan?

Click to shrink...

Plans don't always come together.

If Solanke and Neto were the offensive plan. Then we done well to achieve half of it. Not much we can do when Jorge Mendes is sniffing out Chelsea for more money and higher wages though. That's the game.

We don't know who was on any sort of list for wingers. We don't know what the back up option was. We don't know if Neto WAS the back up option behind Doue.

Ultimately, Ange wants specific characteristics in his signings. We may all want a 1 v 1 winger, but sadly not all of those pretty 1 v 1 wingers want to come to a Spurs. And that's a pretty big thing for the manager. That they WANT to play for the club

if we end up with either Coman or Raphina I'd be delighted (although would prefer loan with options). I'm guessing the board prefer loan with options as well.

Yeah coman would be good. Gooners are after him as well so CL may be a factor. If unsuccessful with coman should go for gnabry imo.

Unfortunately, this makes perfect sense and explains exactly why we haven’t been able to get the winger we need.

What does Scott Munn fucking do if Levy is negotiating transfers? And what happened to Levy stepping away from the football side of things?

Did anyone ever believe that?

Wpuldnt surprise we made a late bid for toney. Brentford are delusional with their price tag atm.

That £40m+ is now better spent elsewhere.

He will go to Woolwich I reckon.

1. He's monitoring!

2. Don't believe everything the media says

 

[nasm_f]

It's being reported all over the internet. Ange alluded to us starting moving on him early too.

Do you believe we've been chasing a RW as well?

Don't know enough about Coman, I'd prefer we went for Kubo or Adingra over Raphinha. I get that I'm probably in the minority on that though.

Fairly injury prone and had a minor heart problem 2021...and he's on €320,000 a week.
Besides, he's another right-footed WF (on top of Son, Solomon, Moore, Werner, Johnson)

We were heavily linked with Neto weren't we?

Or do you not believe that?

Kinda tells it's own story

Even if Spurs were willing to pay the €50m in lump fee, Williams still needed to agree - and he still has his mind still set on Barca.

 

[Richard Arlison]

Yes.



Yes.



No chance.

So then we are agreed that Coman is a late August panic move for an available mercenary because we couldn't do the deals we wanted to do??

What are we even doing here?

But let's be honest, the Coman story is probably bullshit and we aren't signing him.

Raphinha I could almost believe we are waiting for but wages and him wanting to stay at Barca make it hard to believe.

Kubo and Adingra both fit the profile I can believe us going for personally. And I'd still be very happy with either.

 

[RealCoolYid]

LWB more important - Davies gets loads of stick but i would be happy to have him as a backup LCB behind VDV & Dragusin

Click to shrink...

I like Davies but one of the reasons he gets loads of stick is because he was atrocious filling in for udogie

Nico Williams' agent has logged into TFC to tell us that, welcome

Depends what you mean by panic move.

Signing a winger that suits what we need, regardless of whether he was first choice or not, isn't something I'd consider a panic move.

Signing a winger for the sake of getting another offensive player in that doesn't really strengthen our starting eleven is something I'd consider a panic move.

Based on what you're saying though, it sounds like any offensive player we get in now will be a panic move because it's late August and we've needed a winger all summer. Unless it someone you personally like.

I just want a winger. I don't care if he was our fifth choice on the list. If he improves our starting eleven and gives the team something it lacks, get them in.

Click to shrink...

Think I'd prefer Raphina on loan over every option (failing that Comon on loan).
Kubo I'm not sold on, Adringa v.good young player imo but maybe the board are not totally sold to the point of forking out 40m and believe Moore will turn out to be a star, meaning a loan of an already proven player who will make a difference immediately is the way forward?

We started working on Solanke in June.

Meet June

 

[glacierSpurs]

Let’s be honest here, if we really are looking at Coman, Levy has fucked the negotiations on all of our preferred targets and we are in panic mode.

Click to shrink...

Manners! Levy has been working behind the scenes for Coman since July.

That's the tweet that will come after we signed him.

 

[nasm_f]

Or do you not believe that?

Click to shrink...

Yep, I do. It's a bit confusing to keep up though cos sometimes it's journalistic nonsense and other times it can be trusted. Do you think we should be looking for a starting RW incidentally?

The wages dished out from other big clubs are fucking insane.
