Are we basing him “being a twat” on his performance against us, when he went ape?
I don’t know, because I haven’t watched much of him, but if that was a one off I wouldn’t worry so much
I think spammer fans have been calling him that. TBF maybe it's them that are the twats and Kudus is a sound guy!
I'm not even going to entertain the Kudus talk. I got sucked into the Eze links and hyped myself up. Waist of time.
I didn't fall for the Mbeumo or Sane links which had loads other excited on here. Kudus doesn't feel like a Spurs player. West Ham won't want to sell to us and Kudus seems like someone who'd want to join a better club for more money too. If any bigger team come in then we are a sittind duck for a hijack.
Don't even bother getting your hopes up for this one! Just read the links and laugh.

Kudus is another smokescreen
Bring him home

That is where my expectations are at now. Eze was the best player available who actually felt like a realistic signing. We won't pay 70m for Semenyo and I just can't see Kudus joining us, too many things can go wrong there.
Wissa genuinely feels like a realistic signing and the best we can hope for. I know its depressing lol I'm not sure if he's even an upgrade on Richarlison. But whats where my expectations are at after the Eze stuff last week. I've no hope in us getting any big player.
If prices were similar, would we prefer Kudus or Semenyo? Personally I'd definitely prefer the latter...
Semenyo, but can’t see Bournemouth selling for less than £70m, he is on a long contract. Kudus is more fun though to watch.
I suppose we at least get a KUMB meltdown.
Kudus walks into that RW slot so I'd be up for it.
Tel / Solanke / Kudus
Odobert / Richy / Johnson
Upgrade on last season's starting forwards? Yes if Tel kicks on.

I like Kudus, skilful player.
Hopefully we can get an upgrade on Richarlison, but agree that Kudus would be first choice over Johnson.
If we can ship off Richy and get a David type 9 who isn't made of glass I'd be up for it.
Otherwise Richy has shown he can do a job for half a season.
I can’t speak for anyone else but my relationship with Tottenham Hotspur is built on so much more than the club’s ability and willingness to hoover up as many trophies as possible by treating the sport like a video game with cheat codes plugged in. If that’s truly all you want then fair play, that’s your prerogative. Personally, I’d much rather be subjected to the “misery” of the current ownership (which has seen us play in Europe nearly every season for two decades running, make it to a number of cup finals and be entertaining to watch more often than not with world class players frequently passing through our ranks) than be just another sportswashing plaything bathing in unearned glory.
Someone elsewhere in this thread said “ask Man City fans if they care.” I’m much more interested in whether they could ever possibly feel the way we felt after Bilbao, because I know the answer is “no.” I wouldn’t trade that feeling for their entire ill-gotten trophy cabinet. I want Levy to do more to ensure that there will be more Bilbaos in our future, but for me, simply becoming another Chelsea or City would be a slap in the face to all the reasons why I fell in love with Tottenham to begin with and would suck all the joy out of continuing to support this amazing club.
