Don't want that shit spammer reject.

We’ve done quite well with “Spammer rejects” this century to be fair.
 
And people click, post it to the bed wetter all over the internet who moan and cry about made up stories and then share more, and the people who post it just go again knowing the easy targets out there.

happens every window, month, week, day of the year.
I don’t have an issue with people posting it or taking it seriously when they shouldn’t if I’m honest . It’s a forum and without people debating spurious rumours this would be about 5 pages right now . It’s not like there is anything real to sink our teeth into and debate . Just know when you debate it , you may well be debating something as real as Elvis being alive and working at a Burger King in Walsall .
 
Kudus is player that would excite us at times because he’s got brilliant ability. He’s what I always want in a Tottenham player. Can do all the things you want from a midfield/forward type player when attacking. It’s the other side of the game that would be the worry. He maybe just needs a new challenge and we might be the spark he needs if this turns out to be true.
The spammers have three players I’d take in a heartbeat and he’s one of them long with Bowen and Paqueta. He can play in more than one position which helps too.
Does he have this shit attitude that we hear about or is it just made up?

Where there is smoke...

I wonder if Frank sees him as a striker as he can play there.

But it perpetuates the whole 'industry' of nonsense. I find it a travesty that people are so desperate for a dopamine hit of news that they feel the need to rehash any whisper of any old nonsense.

And sure a debate here or there is fair game but I dont see you pushing back against your anti-levy crew when they dont actually debate anything and jump on rumours from nobody's to drive home negative sentiments about the club and perpetuate a toxic atmosphere.

They are not my crew and why would I push back , I think we will have an underwhelming window . The reality might be we missed out on different decent opportunities, or that we signed kids , or opportunistic punts but underwhelmed I expect to be .

What do you expect me to say , don’t keep going on about Eze or Semenyo because we will fail to get someone else instead

You're a g unit now Ed.

You're cards have been marked by the stasi.
:dembelelol:
 
Between injury and form; he's not consistently put up top tier numbers.

He's not a sure thing despite lots of posts to the contrary.

Maybe it's just my own personal experience of "Hey, I'm 27... wait, when did I turn 30", but I get the feeling he'd be a bit of a Walcott in that he'd be expected to be a bit more of a international regular and/or have tempted a top 4 club more by now.

I know hindsight is always hypocritical with football fans, but it seems like the same arguments apply that did to other expensive but underwhelming transfers - yet it's being made out like he's some kind of prime Bale for £68m.

He's good but I just don't know if he's as obviously a no-brainer transfer as is being suggested
 
Say our window ends with

In

Kudus
Douglas Luiz
Walker-Peters
Kota Takai
McAtee

Out

Bissouma
Richarlison
Son
Reguilon


How would we rate it?

Personally I feel we need back up to Solanke, or someone who can take over from him even.
It's very hard to judge atm. As others have said, Ange was such an atrocious manager, we don't really know what our current players could do with someone who doesn't call football round ball rugby.
