Transfers The Summer Transfer Edging Thread 2025

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I think Frank will want the 9 between the posts looking for goals. Solanke did far too much wasted pressing and chasing last season, Richy was fairly quiet yesterday at that but focused on his box work. Solanke needs to do the same, the wide players can close the gaps and shut down space
Frank better find a way to make Brennan work much harder then, cause he's still so lazy off the ball.
 
Look the main framework of the deal has been agreed I'd of thought

Palace want their replacement secured first and are working on that.

In the mean time Eze is still their player (and their best player)....so he plays today.

It really is that simple in all likelihood.

This will go through as soon as Palace get their replacement and we're getting snippets they're in talks with other Clubs...encouraging.

Done this week I reckon.
 
May as well call him Paul Glaser.

 
I think Eze playing for Palace v Chelsea today, merely exposes how little the journalists and twitterati really know about bids/transfers - no surprise as both selling and buying clubs have everything to lose by revealing their respective negotiating positions.

There is a myriad of explanations as to why Eze is playing - it could be that Palace have said to Eze

'We really want you to play for us this weekend as the player coming into replace you cannot arrive for a week. If you play for us today, we'll do everything we can to make sure your transfer to Spurs goes through in next few days, but if you don't play we can't guarantee you moving this transfer window'

I've no reason to believe the above is correct - but its certainly as credible as the stories being spread on twitter and by journalists whose own stories may well be dreamt up, just because they feel the need to say something to justify their status as a news source.

So we live in hope that Eze is announced by Spurs as a new signing sometime this week ...... but the only people who actually know what the status of negotiations actually are will not be saying anything, except if the deal is signed.

Just enjoy the window for what its become , a circus.

And believe nothing unless the club says he's signed

I don’t think Eze playing today is panic stations, he’s still their player at the moment so fair play to them, he seems a professional lad also

The deal will get done and I think we’ll see him saying his goodbyes to the fans today

Palace manager wants to play his best players while he still has them shocker. To be honest if Ghuei or Eze downed tools and refused to play that would annoy me more. Only downside is the risk of potential injury.

Please Daniel, pleeeeeeeeeeaaaaaase...tell Crystal they can have their 60mil for Eze...and throw another 40 on the table for Guehi. Fuck Liverpool. Give Eze a 2mil bonus for getting in his mate's ear and convincing him to recreate their duo at WHL.

Guehi, Jones, Rogers, Eze would've been my dream window...but 2 outta 4 and I'd still jeez my trunks for days.
