Transfers The Summer Transfer Edging Thread 2025

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Listen and learn from who here? That cunt Dharmesh? Who is an absolute spoofing hack of the highest order from Sky Sports News, who was dodging questions and comments left right and centre here. All he does here is spout condescending nonsense to Sacks about not understanding how transfers work. Frankly I don’t know how he’s even on a Spurs podcast. He literally a professional WUM for Sky.

You will learn nothing from that prick.

Of course Woolwich’s have been interested in Eze for some time. But the salient point is they did not come back into the picture until Havertz got an injury. We have had a free run at Eze for essentially the last 2 weeks and we failed to get it done, inexplicably.
We shouldn’t have allowed it to get to the point where Woolwich were even allowed back in the conversation.

A serious club would have just paid the release clause the minute we got the news or how bad Maddison’s injury was.

No one but the agent, the player and the three clubs Chairman know what the deal did and did not involve.

The player must have been aware of the Woolwich interest and that was the key to his decision.

If Eze was in the team for the Palace game tonight then the deal wasn't likely to be completed until Friday anyway.

Shit happens and circumstances change.

Move on, stop crying and man the fuck up.
 
mate just give it up... Man City don't rest Rodri against Burnley, Woolwich don't rest Rice against Burnley, Liverpool don't rest Szoboszlai against Burnley... this is the PL, it's tough and you do not take any team for granted... so yes, I am deadly serious because as you point out, we are not a big club so we have to fight and scrap for the crumbs. You are tying yourself up here.
Lad you are having a mare on this one. You think Frank dropped Palinha and Bentancur for the Burnley game? What he thought their performances against PSG were below par so dropped them both?

Its obvious they were just rested. Stick to reality.
 

And half of that was on players who were either failures or massively over-priced.

But at least we aren't Manure!

Oh wait, they bought Cunha and Mbeumo...

Yeah I think this as close as we are going to get.

For the record, I think we have been inept and played by a number of parties, but we'll never know the nuts and bolts, either from fan forums, Twitter oddballs or from most hacks.
 
No chance.

It will be Dibling. We’ve been sniffing around him for years. Another toddler who will play seven games over three years before being loaned out to anyone that will pick up the phone.
The sad thing is I like Dibling as a prospect. He’s quite an athlete and has a lot of potential. Genuinely impressed me last year, then picked up an ankle injury and Soton rushed him back, I wouldn’t judge his season too harshly as a result.

The issue is he’s about three years away from being an actual CL level contributor: just like Gray, just like Odobert, just like Bergvall, etc.

He won’t deserve the massive spotlight and pressure that’ll be placed on him if we do get him.
