Why is Moore going on loan? Why do we send all our promising players out yet keep the young players we have paid for who have shown nothing. I’d rather keep Moore bin the likes of Richi tel Wilson, Johnson and get eze , Simmons etc type players in. Moore will learn more from better quality players than those duds.Well, I'd argue that we have quite a strong squad for the Champs League, albeit slight unbalanced. Already some wild assumptions (i.e. Dragusin, Son, Davies out), it's hard to see any other players that could be dropped....and I just realised I missed Bergvall off the list - so that's 9 player we need to drop - and I certainly can't think of one in the list below. Certainly explains why we threw big money at MGW - and suggests to be that EZE or Wharton will be our primary target in this window now.
Club Trained (1)
Austin
Association Trained (3) (maximum 4)
Maddison, Spence, Johnson
INTERNATIONAL (25 CL) (maximum 17)
Richarlison, Bentancur, Bissouma, Kulu, Porro, Romero, Sarr, Solanke, Udogie, Van De Ven, Vicario, Kudus, Kinsky, Danso, Tel, Vuskovic, Odobert, Bergvall
List B - Grey,Moore(looks like Moore is going on loan)
Drop from CL squad - Gil, Soloman, Taaki, Phillips, Yang, Davies, Son, Dragusin
So we waited 3 months before pulling the trigger on a player spam we’re interested in. No wonder we are are where we are!Solanke was in talks with Waste Spam in May 24. They could not meet his wage demands
You know I get every argument for and against for Brennan. No matter which way I can’t have a single bad feeling towards him
That was it …. Is he on the radar again ?Yeah Brentford pretty much signed him then he failed the medical or some shit
Yep more children that we can all hype up as generational talentsTime to Crack open the old Excel spreadsheet for under 21s with the right data profiles. It's the only deals we're capable of doing
Im a bit gutted about Moore going out but it makes sense with rodrygo coming inWhy is Moore going on loan?

Rodrygo looks like another Ndombele. Incredible and lazy. It's not happening, but that's probably not a bad thing if we're only going to get one more expensive signing.
I don’t understand why we cooled off on Eze.
I honestly don’t understand why Eze doesn’t get more interest from clubs. He is a top top player to me. Better than Gibbs-White, no question.
He scored 12 free kicks.Interestingly enough, Sonny is our best free kick taker, yet he never takes any. Eriksen? I only remember him scoring 2 or 3 in the 6 years he was with us.
Because he wants to go to Woolwich and they want to sign him. As soon as they came in we cooled our interest because he was waiting for them.I don’t understand why we cooled off on Eze.

TBH, not saying Rodrygo per se, but with Ange we might still be able to convince more players to come. He's magically persuasive in his phone calls, and now has the tag as a European Cup winner coach, whether people like it or not. Definitely a much attractive coach to play under than an ex-Brentford Thomas Frank in terms of accolades.I have absolutely zero doubts that Rodrygo laughed out loud when we got in touch. Absolutely zero doubts.
Just imagine the clown cartel of Levy, Lange and Vinai trying to sell the current version of Spurs, in the current state we’re in, with Thomas Frank as manager, to a player of Rodrygo’s calibre.
Its just beyond laughable.
And it’s sad, because make no mistake, we SHOULD be able to attract a player like Rodrygo. The fact we aren’t lays squarely at the door of Daniel Levy, ENIC, and the utterly incompetent way the club is run.
Unfortunately there's no room for sentiment. The boy is ok, but no more than that imo, so if we are serious about dinning at the top table, which I'm not sure Enic are, we need a better front line that doesn't include Johnson and Solanke. They are mid-table performers and if they remain at the club, so will we be.You know I get every argument for and against for Brennan. No matter which way I can’t have a single bad feeling towards him
And then spun it to convince the fan base that he was our number 1 target. He wasn’t. He just happened to be a viable left over option.So we waited 3 months before pulling the trigger on a player spam we’re interested in. No wonder we are are where we are!
If we have to raise half you are not giving us £230-£250 million.And your choices are.....?
I'm giving you 230-250m spend on 5 players. Who are your 5? And how you going to raise at least half of that amount?
Would like a free kick specialist player to come in this window. Porro and maddison are decent. But an eriksen type free kick specialist. Roberto carlos or branco type would be great.
