Transfers The Summer Transfer Edging Thread 2025

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

The whole thing about us having positive talks with Paqueta's agent doesn't mean anything to me. The player being interested in leaving West Ham for us is not the obstacle. Doing a deal with West Ham is the obstacle. And they're not selling their 2 most gifted players to us in the same window when their fans are getting this irate. I was stunned they did it to us once.
Their two most gifted players?

Bowen is - by far - their most gifted player...but okay.
 
So it appears that Simons is our last chance of getting a good player that improves the starting line up. So when that ineviltably falls through its maybe 1 squad player or nothing. We've lost Son and Maddison + Kulu for 6 months. Heads need to roll and not just Langes as some sacrificial lamb.
 
We're nowhere without any lock-pickers against the balance of our fixtures and I have absolutely no doubt Thomas Frank is communicating that to Lange and Levy in no uncertain terms.

I still very much expect a major purchase in that area, but there are disturbing echoes of 2018 around atm.
It's way more positive than 2018 (and January 2019, which was the low point) but it does have a lot of 2023 vibes when injuries and the failure to sign a third centre half blew up a positive start.
 

"That frustration among supporters led to a very low-key launch of the club's third kit this week. The decision was made not to push the kit out on social media as would ordinarily be the case due to an acceptance of the current mood surrounding the club. It was expected that the response to posts would be overwhelmingly negative, and there will instead potentially be more publicity around it once the transfer window closes."

Practically every post they do has people telling them to fuck off and sign some players.

It's great.

That’s actually quite telling

I’m slightly surprised by that
