Transfers The Summer Transfer Edging Thread 2025

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

It’s pretty clear that Liverpool, City, Chelsea and Woolwich are gonna be playing their own mini-league next season. They have just pulled away from the rest in terms of the talent they’ve brought in any the money they’re spending.
So despite similar resources, and far, far more PSR wriggle room than both, we're once more left in the distant shadows of our two fiercest rivals.

What was the point of this New Stadium again?? .

Not to single you out, but I'm so fucking tired of reading this same lazy take every. single. summer. It's unbelievably trite and superficial. Every year it's the same shit, and everyone looks at the table imagining a season in which nobody apart from Spurs suffers any injuries whatsoever, and everyone else's transfers are all competing for the golden boot or ballon d'or.

There is always more competition and opportunity in the League than anybody anticipates. Odds are good that at least two of those teams are going to sharply disappoint compared to current expectations.

I swear there's a disease that some of you folks suffer from. July comes around and half of you act like you want the League to go ahead and declare the winner before a ball has been kicked.
In previous years, I’d agree with you, but the level of spending from those four is just on a different level this last six months.
 
This window is now looking like all the others. It's the bare minimum. We never fix all the gaps in our team. We will probably end it signing (if we are lucky) MGW and then it will be a couple of 20 mill punts /fillers who won't be up to standard, and the whole cycle repeats itself. Another frustrating season where we look on enviously at our rivals with an embarssments of riches etc etc

As we said a few weeks ago when Frank was appointed, it's basically all on him to be a miracle worker.

Chelsea building a squad for 4 competitions where they can rotate with no drop in quality. Woolwich same. Liverpool same. City there already. Newcastle haven't done much, but if they keep Isak, with Gordon and Elanga, that's a great forward line and Bruno, Tonali and Joelinton is one of the best midfields in the league.

Wtf are we doing?
