It’s not superstition. They aren’t Spurs players until it’s officially announced so don’t create a thread in the ‘Tottenham Hotspur’ board.

John McClane convention?i wish i was still young and i could just go to a big drug party tonight and wake up on tuesday and this shit would be over.
Well you got constant petulance correct but the rest you are way off
Player - Mikkel Damsgaard
Few players shock me as to the clubs they are at nowadays (they sort of suit the club they play for if that makes sense), but I am shock that Damsgaard is still at Brentford. Signed for them in 2022, impressed me at the last World Cup and I just expected him to move to a bigger club. I know he...

Transfer - Jude Bellingham
Moving to Dortmund. Looks like Dortmund have a strategy to make money. Buy young English players. Play them for a couple of seasons. Then sell them back to the English for 100m. No brainer really.

Marcus Rashford
Can someone explain to me why he is so good? Ive watched him in quite a few games and never really seen anything special. Obviously anyone that pulls a shirt on for United has some level of ability to play the game. But being heralded alongside Dembele and Mbappe? I just dont see it personally.

TBF I think Palhinha was his replacement. We are now working on a Maddison replacement so totally separate to biss
If he goes down with an injury who is stepping in as a 6 this season?
It'll be a double pivot of Bentancur with any of Gray, Bergval or Sarr.
To have MGW or Rogers over Paz is pure English bias… Paz is literally going to play and star for Real Madrid in a years time and is already an Argentinian international (who are the current World champs btw!)
I understand it’s all a question of opinion but this is clear English and PL bias.
Well, I’ll leave those threads to

Yeah this would be true except we won’t back the ambition with the required wage to actually tempt him in to rejecting Chelsea for us so it’s completely empty ambition.
You little levy loving lapdog.
PL bias is to an extent sensible though, at least in so far as a playing having proven himself in the PL is a hugely relevant indicator of future success
and I think that will be enough. I really do trust all three of those to be solid for us this season.
True but some of these cited players barely play or don’t play for the England National Team, who let’s be honest, are not exactly a barometer of success either.
All good players and I would have been happy with any of them, just the bias that’s annoying (although, again, it’s all subjective at the end of the day)
Much as I think he is bang average
We most probably created the blockage.
Sh!t show.
Half day closing on Thursdays
Well maybe so but I was basing it on how good I think they are right now.
I have sung the praises of paz loads on here, hes a future star but he has still got a long way to go and the playing style in seria a is alot less intense.
All the players i named ahead of him are much further along and ready to go from day 1 compared to paz.
I would still be very suprised if paz makes it a real madrid, let alone next year. Have you seen the competition he has there?
Lastly you can forget the English bias.....im Italian!
I sincerely hope the club is not as fucking stupid as I think they are. If you want to try to get in for Simons fine but I hope they realize that in all likelihood they are only driving the price up for Chelsea given the transfer has been agreed basically all summer. It would take a miracle for him not to go Chelsea, and we must proceed with other plans in parallel.
But given the Eze saga it appears they don’t do backup plans.
