Disagree. In fact thats nonsense. One player in Isak,who is an absolute tosser for what he is doing. One of the worst I have seen in my years. Cnut.

Isak was not an established top player whatsoever when he joined them. He had scored like 6 goals for Sociedad. The elite didn’t want him at that point.

They’ve failed at every top level target they’ve aimed for. Of course if players don’t have alternatives and need to build a PL rep they will go there.

I've booked Monday off work.

Deadline day is going to be insane.

Dharmesh Seth will be outside Spurs Lodge and the fans will be chanting "Rogers".

So what.

It's about the best options. Too many on here presume fitness, retention of form, and that players arent good enough for us, and have no idea who is, or base it on a few youtube clips or a couple of games.

Jackson is not elite, but pretty good. Wait to see when the Chelsea strikers fall short - good of course.

Jackson will look better than he is in Germany but he’s just there as Kane’s fluffer

Why do some think Vuskovic on loan means a new CB coming in?

Who in their right mind in a WC year where minutes matter is going to come here to be 4th CB and at best sit behind VDV most of the season. No one of note. And those that would aren't worth taking.

It will be VDV, Romero, Danso, Dragusin, Takai, Davies, Gray for this season.

We are more than covered at centre back, and need to spend on a number 10

Looking at rumours, what do we think likely/possible?

- Paqueta = feels like a potential move to me. I can see Frank liking him a lot, works hard, defensively very strong for a 10, good in the air, great at crossing (especially from those inside channels Frank likes) and skillful and can beat a man. Not the premium #10 people are looking for but IMO a solid option and attainable

- Simmons = Probably another embarrasing fail

- Savinho = looks off at the moment, but I suspect we'll still push. With the player and agent on board I still think its 50/50

-Mainoo = I like a lot, but as said before - just not sure how he fits. Still, given his age, price, HG status, quality... very much the sort of buy we would go for

-Garnacho = linked early in the window, gone quiet since Chelsea got invovled and we moved onto Savinho. Im not sure I buy the bad attitude accusations levelled at him, I think under someone like Frank he could thrive. Talented, HG, cheap (relative) and high upside, much like Mainoo feels a lot like our sort of business

In order:

1. Savinho
2. Paqueta
3. Mainoo (think Frank would be great for him, and he has a high ceiling)
4. Simmons
5. Garnacho (a lot less keen on him than the other 4).
 
Truly baffling and upsetting to release that list of 5 ungettable targets on August 27th and say the club wants multiple of them.

We’re actually signing nobody. This is Levy openly laughing at us.
