You can imagine him giving that look as he ups his opening bid by £17.50 and Bryan Gil in P/Ex.

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
Towards the end of the Inside Spurs video I posted earlier, Jay Bothroyd said Brentford identified squad requirements and transfer targets 18 months in advance!
Could go some way to explaining Thomas Frank’s comments earlier in the window!
Well yeh... He'd been with them 8 years; things are able to get more systematic/streamlines over such a long time.
TBF..... There seems to be a lot of cases where we're scoping players over longer periods of time..... Doesn't mean you end up pulling the trigger and/or the deal is appealing to all sides.
BJ, Tel , Maddison, Eze all recent examples. Other's I've no doubt forgot.

You mean Le Parisien....the bloke from Clapham.
Huge if I know, but if we were to get Savinho over the line, and any one of those number 10s on the list, it will be a fantastic end to the window.
Xavi Simons would be the top choice, but even someone like Paqueta or the Monaco kid will transform our attack.
A good CB like Hincapie would have been a dream window, but hopefully there is someone else good up our sleeve.
It's the hope that kills you.

Can't lie..... This made me proper laugh......
Are they making tents under sheets too?
LOL.
Levy got owned by Neville in that podcast actually. Neville gets hate on here, but I think he's ok. Levy came across as deluded and of course (FWIW) highly un-telegenic with that coupon and those awful mannerisms he has.
I'm sure Daniel will be right, and all the clubs spending more on transfers and wages will be out of business in a few years, or at least relegated.
Chelsea will 100% gazump us just as Woolwich did for Eze. Surely we aren’t this naive are we
There is one fatal flaw that he has which is all his own. The fact that he has to win the deal no matter what. Which means he loves moving the goal posts when it comes to transfers. The fact is because he always feels like we have to have a deal we felllike we are shopping in the Transfer Market Version of TK Maxx.
If Chelsea are really looking elsewhere this is such a no brainer. Ideal replacement for Maddison and can drift left. Young but with experience at the top level.
We just finished 4th from bottom mate
Does Simmons count as a "bomba"?
Just to be sure.... You paid to get behind their paywall for this gem, yeh?
You just know Chelsea will sign Garnacho AND Simons, even though they don't need both.
We need quality; not bodies.
Look at the size of our squad list already!!!

Good thing grown adults don't use isolated seasons to look at trends then isn't it
It was once a reality!
Why is he sitting on the lap of the shifty dodgy little bloke , I can only see half his face but I’d know the prick anywhere even with the Brian May haircut
Yeah. He's a guy who obviously is clever (in a one-dimensional way) and works very hard, but has huge blindspots and the ownership structure of THFC, and lack of any checks on his authority has meant that we see the results of both his abilities and his limitations.
