Transfers The Summer Transfer Edging Thread 2025

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Sure - but isn't Simons the best 10 available? I get that he might be unobtainable but don't we at least have to try IF he is indeed the best 10/player available?

If not him then who?
We should be pushing all our chips in on Akliouche in my opinion. That deal will take time, and we haven’t got it. When Simons goes Chelsea we will look like utter fools.

And look, if we are advancing on other players in the background then fair play. Simons is the best 10 on the market. I just have zero confidence that the club is acting rationally this summer, it all seems to be a panic.
 
I still don't think this Simons talk is legit, its just supposed ITK generating a false narrative, he is going to the Chavs but they want to make it look like he rejected us by going there, the club is not so stupid as to do thi after MGW & EZE!!!!! :frankfacepalm:
 
Levy is desperate to land one big transfer but I'm not sure if he's this desperate. Making Xavi Simons your highest paid player is a massive gamble by all accounts. If his attitude isn't 100% then it could derail everything. I don't think we'll offer him the 200k a week. I think we'll come in around 160-180K and Simons will only accept if Chelsea are completely out of the equation
 
If Chelsea have chosen to pursue Fermín López over Xavi Simons then we are in a one horse race for the Dutchman, surely even we can't fuck this up if this is the scenario.

All those scared on here of 'being rejected for a 3rd time' most likely haven't had anywhere near as much sex in their lives as they could've, with less attractive women than they could've.

You just have to confidently stroll up to Simons, give him a firm slap on the arse, look into his eyes and ask the question - "do you want to come or not?".
 
It is bringing it all back...

Fucking legend. From the glory days before the incels over ran the forum.


I'm going to break cover, and tell you Fattynomates Fattynomates I have used your finest hour, in a lecture on: legacy media, online truth and how the line between news and content creation has become permeable. A room full of professional writers laughing their heads off.
