TBF, up to a point, you coulda been talking about Utd OR Spurs!!!
I also remember when people told us that Rashford, Welbeck, Giroud, Jesus, [insert half a dozen more names] were better or more complete forwards than Kane.This Mark Goldbridge?
I hope there’s no membership fee?!Thats it I'm starting a new group and I'm calling it....

Anyone interested?
Not something you want appearing on your credit card statement!
Did you expect anything else though?
So far this window has gone exactly how we expected it to. There won’t be any ambitious signings. Sorry to put the breaks on any excitement but we are just a constant disappointment in transfer windows.
There's nothing you can measure on a football pitch that Eze has ever done better at the PL level. Maddison is a better passer, shooter, defender, playmaker, etc.
You can't say "player X is preferred at the national team" so he's better. Southgate is a clown that literally no one on this forum wanted as the next Spurs manager - so you seem to be grossly exaggerating the relative importance of his opinion over the past couple of years.
Tuchel has called Eze up, but listed him as a forward. I don't watch internationals, but I suspect this is because he's playing as a WF rather than a #10. So he's not really being called up in preference to Maddison who can play tgere when needed but clearly should be in the centre of the park.
Either way, it really isn't a matter of Eze or Maddison. We need both to be the team we want to be and replacing Maddison with Eze either makes us worse (my opinion) or only very minutely better (some others' opinions).
I think Cunha is a fantastic player. Very polished in all aspects.
Mbeumo i'm less sold on. I get he's coming off a career year and the hot commodity, but I won't be disappointed if he lands with United.
TBF I think on paper quite a few of their signings over the last few years have been fantastic.
Exactly this.
Amazes me how people expect any different, after all these years.
No matter what Levy says, he’ll never change.
I’m amazed you haven’t been banned for trolling.
Ooooooo you've got a new one in your collection!
Looking forward to seeing this many times in the future.
Like a new signing!
When people see how much red he has opted for...it may happen.
Agree. I'm always suprised people are surpised every summer. We'll make 1 £60m-ish signing probably Eze, Semenyo, Kudos as that seems to be the template of the last few summers and then it will be bits and pieces signings, kids and punts. Only way we do more is if Romero or Richarlison go.
Us and Utd post Europa is going to be like us and Woolwich when we pipped them to 4th. Those clubs take it as a kick up the arse, we just meander on doing the same thing, CL or not.
Been close to getting Mbuemo for a good month now.
I think Mbeumo and Cunha would start for us, or at least offer excellent attacking options for us. so I'm pretty jealous that United can attract that quality of player when they're essentially in the bin at the moment
shameless dan
Can you quit the tears for one day, please I beg.
