Transfers The Summer Transfer Edging Thread 2025

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Is Zabarnyi just another of these players we waste time on when it's clear he has eyes elsewhere, bit like Doue last yr, never convinced Levy is willing to pay what it takes to land the big fish anyway, probably why we miss out on so many.
 
Judging by vuskovic so far and admit is too early i think he could be a good number 6. A rikjaard type player. Class player what ive seen so far. But admit it is too early to say.
Nah he is literally the second coming of John Terry and I don't see how people can't see it yet, yes he scores but he is not a dribbler or progressive passer, just a physical specimen who is possibly already at an elite, if not very very high level aerially, I don't think he has the pace or capability to contribute to attacking phases of play to be a 6 at this level but for sure I can see him chipping in with 5-10 goals from late runs into the box during games where we have the oppo under siege and for sure he will be fucking dynamite on set pieces.
Hopefully he's not a massive cunt like John Terry :franklol:

Baleba and Mitoma would go a long way to sorting us out. Ready made players who you know would most likely hit the ground running.

Yes they'd cost a bomb, but when you really want to improve your first eleven, in positions badly needed, that's what you have to do.

You just never, ever, get the feeling we'd be prepared to fully commit to sorting out our issues and really going for it .

And until that changes we simply won't change in a significant way.
 
I'm not going to overreact to the transfer window so far. It's still open and a lot of deals could still happen. Following the transfer news is a sure fire way to just disappoint yourself.

What's disappointing to me is what other teams have done. Particularly Liverpool and just how far in another league that mentality is after winning the title. We would never reinforce in that way after success.

The only way Tottenham buy those 2 players you mentioned is if, they are both 17 years old, for half the fee they would currently cost and half those wages.
This club doesn't or won't take the risk in going for the best sadly.
It’s a status that has held sway for 25 years and continues to do so.

If we got this guy and went crazy for the #6 like a Baleba level player, I think the summer would have been salvageable. Although, I’m not sure you can play El Khannouss in the 8 like MGW and I’m not sure Baleba adds much passing from #6.

Is he that great? Only 2 goals 3 assists in PL last season.
Our squad is already full, don’t see the point in getting another unproven youngster with questionable end product.

Mate better to accept it now, we're never going to be super ambitious under this owenship.

It's not about the window still being open, that's a fast way to disappoint yourself come the end of August.

We as fans have to truly wake up and hold the ownership accountable for their absolute lack of ambition as a football club. Expoiting loyal fans in the process.

The new stadium was suppose to change things for the better. All it's done is line their pockets further.

Noting changes until we change imo.
