Transfers The Summer Transfer Edging Thread 2025

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

That’s the news I hope I wouldn’t hear the Darkside are now chasing Eze. You’re a joke Levy saying you want to win the league, one lying wee barsteward!
Same old same old!
 
You wanna continually suck our rivals off, on a fucking Spurs forum, in a thread dedicated to transfers about our club - particularly when there's literally another thread about other team's transfers including our rivals...

And this is the hill you wanna die on yeah?

🤡🤡
Not sure how they're 'closer to winning major honours' either given we won one 6 weeks ago
 
sure but it doesn't change the fact that this is part of levy's playbook. if he can get the player to kick up a fuss and say he only wants spurs he can knock down the price a bit. but that puts the pressure on the player to burn bridges he may not feel comfortable doing and i think it's pathetic for a club of our size pursuing top players
isn't that fairly standard procedure for big clubs - Real Madrid do it and United used to in the Fergie days back when they were relevant
 
Or he risks losing some of those who gave him a degree of flex.
And what exactly is that going to do?

:porrohands:


I do get a chuckle out of some supporters who act like we're a socio that's going to have elections next year or something.

THST is a wankfest. I applaud CFT but they've got a lot of ground to recover from the whole "tourist" debacle if you ask me. Neither group, realistically, has a snowballs chance in hell of dislodging Levy.
 
Yes Kudus didn’t have a great season last season but he was playing in an awful West Ham side. My only issue with it is he will be going to Afcon in December.
I got nothing against AFCON (and obviously nothing against African players...yes, saying that for you LP), but someone in power gotta do something about that tourney.

No way should it be played every two years...the Euros and - if I'm not mistaken - the Copa America are played every 4 years.

And no way should it take place in Dec/Jan. Fuck that. I know it's like 60 degrees in the summer but who pays them players' wages, eh?! Not having a dude you pay 100s of 1000s of quid per week for a whole month and in some cases getting them back injured, that's just a pisstake.

Obviously Africa should have a continental championship like everybody else, and the climate of Africa makes playing that tournament in the summer very difficult. I am sympathetic to the issues there.

But add on the every two years thing and it really is just ridiculous and genuinely hurts their best players, whose stardom helps drive the game forward on that continent. Bad equilibrium.

On the plus side, no AFCON for Kudus until at least late 2027/early 2028 😁
 

I read that Frank thinks a lot of him, (when he was managing Brentford) but perhaps he feels that Gray, Bergvall and Bentancur can fill out that position plus he may have thoughts on a player we have that he likes?

If the money is right I think we should sell, thought Bissouma did play well the last two or three rounds of the EL, and vey well in the final.

Hotspur Related does have a large following, and though that doesn't guarantee factual info, it's likely more accurate than not?
