Transfers The Summer Transfer Edging Thread 2025

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

What are you talking about?? Home grown or whatever bullshit they call it, you have to be good enough, KWP,Skipp,winks are not good enough. It's not about numbers it's about quality
Club trained - but yes if if that opens up an additional CL spot for another player I’d take KWP all day, we’d find him minutes across the season and it would allow a bigger CL squad with the addition of not just him but another established player/new signing. No brainer to me
 
The more cynical amongst us would suggest he didn’t really mean any season.

I’m taking him on his word and choosing to believe we will see a transfer window that shows real intent to start trying to win both from now on.
Don't think anyone can watch that and honestly say his goals were all meant for this season. I think he'll give Frank what he asks for, seemed to back Ange in his first few windows. Not expecting a total overhaul of the squad until Frank actually has a chance to work with them.

If not this season then when?

We are in the CL this season, if we don’t build a squad capable of challenging to win this season, what guarantee is there we even qualify next season or any other season?
 
All of us here should start an TFC ITK subscription service based on what we’re hearing right here from our sources on this Board. 🤣. Sources = Ourselves.

We could make alot of money - course we’d to split it and there are a lot of us. 🤣

Ange did a pretty big overhaul, one way and another we must have changed about 15 players in the first team squad since Conte left. If Bissouma leaves then Frank can maybe bring in 2 players this window.
Next Summer Frank probably gets to change 2 more when Ben Davies leaves, maybe Son gets to leave on a free for services rendered and Richi might move on as well.

We can't build a squad to realistically challenge for the Premier League and Champions league in one window. I think we can build a squad that is capable of getting top 5 this season and work from there.

Any world class player is going to want to go to the current top 5 in the league way more so than go to us. I don't think it's a question of just chuck the money in as far as we're concerned, it's a question of the player coming in waiting to see if City/Woolwich/Chelsea/Liverpool/Newcastle make an approach.

I think however you rate Ange's tenure it's hard to overlook how much better/younger/more balanced our squad is now compared to when he first came in. Still gaps there but they seem easy fixes.

I'm hearing there's been initial thoughts about opening talks with an intermediary linked to Kyle Naughton. Naughton was previously spotted visiting the training ground between 2009-2015. :sarrthink:
 
Let's be honest, Levy and co are pretty fooked and on another hiding to nothing.

Even when we spend a larger amount it's done so poorly. Too much youth, not enough or even any top calibre players.

They don't have a clue. Frank is a good manager, lange is a good talent scout but with the resources this club has we should be assembling a team that can win titles every year.
Instead it's a never ending rebuilding, more longshots and trying to get rid of old failed longshots.

Go buy some top quality ffs and stop being so tinpot.
 
Can you please put me in touch with this building contractor that builds flats for free?! 😁

Pal, our beloved chairman didn't fully back Redknapp after he got us into the CL and we were doing well in the league...remember friggin Nelsen & Saha?

Sold Bale for a record fee, only to waste the money on Soldado, Paulinho, Chiriches...

Poch turned us into an elite squad able to win big things, just needed that extra touch of help...he got no new players for 18 months. And when he did get players, most were shite.

Jose wanted Skriniar...got Rodon. Conte wanted Bastoni, got Spence. Replaced Kane with Richarlison & Solanke. Signing Tel over someone of Nico Williams' ilk.

But yeah 2025 is when he's finally gonna deliver cause he wants the PL & CL.
 
There's a few articles about that the club are interested in signing Adem Zorgane, apparently his primary position is defensive midfield, he's Algerian, plays in Belgium, and our club's representatives were impressed by him when they went to see our lads at Westerlo and he was in the opposing team. The transfer fee being mentioned is £8.5m.

Under 10 mil! Levy will be all over this.

Actions speak louder than words and Levy has got away with most of what ENIC have done without saying very much at all.

Now there is finally some visible anger what happens?

Donna Cullen has been removed, a gooner has been brought in, some pr spin has been released; and people are now creaming their pants in expectation.

It's still jam tomorrow.

The jam's just been re-packaged in a different jar.
