Transfers The Summer Transfer Edging Thread 2025

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Oh for the love of God. This does my head in. Its like the total level of crazy you would have to be to take solice from two good results. We have lost Kulusevski Maddison Son Bissouma. We will get injuries the squad depth is pitiable. We would have won the Super cup had we MGW to bring on when Sarr tired. Did you honestly not see what happens exactly in that game having to bring on Grey and half fit Solanke. We are only playing one game a week. So Frank can prep for games individually that's not what the season will look like.

Only one of two things is going to happen.

Either we sign nobody

Or

There is a curveball bomba nobody saw coming

But either way we are not getting ANY of the names that have been floating about.
 
So are the usual suspects going to defend this sham of a transfer window when it finally slams shut?

We really are on the brink of one of the most disgusting windows I've ever experienced.

Not only does it look like we are failing to replace Son who we knew was leaving for months, we are also failing to replace our main number 10 who is out for over a year.

On top of that, we are being mugged off by not just Woolwich twice, but Chelsea too. Both sets of fans basking in the fact that players are rejecting us in favour of them.

It's just fucking embarassing.

The ironic thing is on the pitch things have looked great for us the first two games, but so it has for the two scummy London clubs too.

The difference is, they likely won't run out of steam when winter hits, because they have invested millions in bringing in top class talent to fill their squad.

It's just two games, and we all know, we've seen it before, the team will run out of energy really soon, and our lack of talent and depth will be horribly exposed. Yet again it will get toxic against Levy for failing to properly back the manager. Frank will be a fuckign miracle worker to get this team top 4. Problem is, he isn't a miracle worker, he's just a really good manager, and he'll probably fall short because the club have fucked him over.

I really would love to be a fly in the wall on the post transfer window meetings. In any proper football club, the CEO would probably go fucking mental and sack the entire recruitment team for this window we are seeing. Problem for us is Levy is the main problem, so he will probably listen to all the excuses, make a few excuses himself, and they'll say "oh well, better luck next time". Losers, all of them.

Any proper top club would say sorry it's just not good enough.
 
Get Van der Vaart on the phone to Simons.

Make him the face of the club. Chuck the sink at him. It still not enough, but would be a whole lot better than the alternative where.

I used to respect a couple of them..not the basement dwelling 'bro" "touch grass" tik tok wankers, but the couple old enough to know better. Not now ,if they were in good faith they'd not have any credible excuses left and would own it, like the decent Ange cultists or Brexiteers. Instead it's become part of their personality. So they can't walk back.

This was the window when the club had its mouth peices like Gold talking naming rights and external investment and 350 million spends. Lol its a total humiliation, it's like the hierarchy are working against the coaches.
 
No matter what happens in the few remaining days of this window their are only 2 conclusions imo.
1. the money isn't their and all these failures are fabrications
2. We have failed on our plans in such an embarrassing and incompetent way


Either way it's time for this ENIC to go.
I'm a season ticket holder and I'm not spending money in the stadium or shop until they go now. I encourage others to do the same if they feel the same way
 
Exactly. What kind of football operation are we running? We knew Son was leaving months ago and haven't replaced him. Maddison got injured weeks ago, we haven't replaced him. We knew Deki was out-long term since April, we haven't replaced him.

It's sheer madness and the way some fans are accepting of it is utterly bizarre. Levy has always been negligent but to lose three fundamental players and not replace them is just wilful sabotage. The squad we have now is simply not ready for a CL season, that's despite Frank saying all summer that "we want to build a squad to compete in all competitions".

If Kudus gets injured, we're done. We won't be able to bring the ball up the pitch.
It's seeming more and more like TF will be asked to do some spectacular turd-polishing.

Another manager hamstrung before we even get started...worst bit is, I honestly think this is the best guy to actually suit the club that we've had in a long time.

It's so so gutting becaause just adding three top quality signings to this squad makes such a difference.

As ever another manager is thrown under the bus. We see it every single fucking year.
 
  • We monitor first (5 weeks)
  • Prepare low ball bid (6 weeks)
  • Find the right phone number to call (1 week)
  • Wait for off peak calling time ( 9 hours )
  • Leave voicemail (5 mins)
  • Forget to leave your number for them to return your call
  • Accidentally butt drunk dial 4 hours later with voicemail - baldy jacking off to his new payrise (Abba money,money,money playing in background)
  • Call is returned (2 days later)

You forgot 'Take a holiday during the transfer window".
 

"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."

Literally says they'll wait until the window closes before bombarding fans with the grift.

Don't really see that as the win you're trying to make out it is.

Mate gave up the ST a bit over a year ago(it really stung). Will go away if possible,but no kit no merch I'm done till ENIC are. Its the lying got me we are complicit in our own robbery.
 
Don't read any reports. How does anyone know truth from fiction?

But if we dont have players coming in, then it's a fcuking piss take of the highest order with no basis for excuses,including Frank if he has agreed Bissoumas's loan before securing another midfielder.

It's like they are sadists.
