Transfers The Summer Transfer Edging Thread 2025

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

A lot of media articles have him likely to join the Goons.
Maybe could have got him if we had gone in stronger right off the bat.

It's like when you go to the bar and are hitting on a 9 all night, and then she bounces, and then you try and scoop her 7 friend who you've been ignoring all night instead- usually by that point she isn't having it, shes turned off by the lack of respect and interest.

Unusual analogy but I get your drift.

I don't think we are very good dealing with clauses in contracts.
 
100%.

Anyone who thinks Gibbs White was a main target or someone Levy was willing to go “all out” to get for Frank are beyond deluded.

He’s a player we’ve been moderately linked with for years. Like Eze, he’s a player we’ve been “monitoring” perpetually, and clearly somehow we got wind that there was a possibility that we could get him on the cheap this summer. Once that backfired, there was never any suggestion that we would continue to try and get him or pull out all the stops. The stroke we tried to pull didn’t work, so Levy slithered away like a bold child.
Like the Tottenham fans, the football world has grown tired of the loathsome Mr Levy.
His lowballing and general slimy stunts have all been found and called out, our club will be so much better once he is no longer there just holds us back.
 
Another day in the Atacama desert , our powder remains dry . When everyone else has finished their business we will be the only buyer left with cash to burn . We just need to wait for transfer deadline day to be over , we can then have a real go . Just hoping the bloody people running the game don’t use rules , red tape and regulation to hamper our moves . Just our luck we wait until deals can’t be done and then some snotty nosed pen pusher says .
“ You can’t sign players now the window is closed , why do you think everybody else has finished their deals in the allotted time frame”

Poor Daniel if that happens , it will be so unfair just because we ran out of time.

We might have a crack at the odd player with multiple ownership issues within time I suppose and then get upset when it falls through .

EDIT: It’s third party and I’ll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to
Cry if I want to
You would cry too if it happened to you

Just scout better. Solanke prime example came at end of window when there were no links or anyone else interested. Last min dot com we roll up and stump up over £60M for a 27 yr old with one decent season. Surely out scouting team could have identified another striker somewhere in the world who is better.

You are too focused on PL market. Abroad you can find very good players at fair prices and several bargains. But Lange's recruitment is very limited.
 
This is the level of our singings now. The other 14 are our competitors. We are not a top 6 side, Newcastle have replaced us.

I don't think Dom starts for any side that finished top 10. He's a good guy, I like the dude, but £65m, you have to score goals, and at no point do I ever expect him to. We need to improve on him right now, but we won't because Levy doesn't accept when mistakes have been made, so get added to the long list of impossible to sell Deadwood, because he won't be realistic about their worth.
Big 5 and other 15 maybe, but Newcastle haven’t replaced us, they’re having a worse summer than us and getting gazumped at every turn whilst losing their best player since Shearer and replacing with Wissa.

They finally win a trophy after 70 years and a couple of months later us and Crystal Palace win a better trophy.

We’re still comfortably ahead despite Levy having all the ambition of a floppy cock
 
Apparently, Sancho is available for £15.5-17.3 million. That's a no brainer for me.

I still believe this guy could set the pitch on fire if he has the right manager.


nah he's busted.

even back in germany he only managed 2 goals on his loan
 
Sickening how extremely underwhelming our transfer window has been so far with 2 weeks until the UEFA Super Cup.

Biggest news this week is probably that Mikey Moore will join Rangers on loan.

Nothing a late swoop for 7-9 players can't cure!

A manager like Harry Redknapp and not a manager like Frank who has a no dick heads policy.
