Transfers The Winter Transfer Thread - 25/26

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

We suddenly need SO MANY positions.
Also there are few younger players pushing for inclusion.
Rarely been so depressed about our team.
When businessmen care more about making money than creating an excellent football team, and maintaining a high standard of hierarchy, in terms of recruitment and scouting, which seems we will never have under ENIC ownership.

Lange and Paratici are clearly not good enough evidenced by their signings, particularly Lange.

And yet Vinai and ENIC will not take action, its neglectful and damaging.

And it's important we point our frustration at not just necessarily the players, but the ones who have brought them here, as that is what should be at the forefront.

In my opinion, recruitment has been the epicentre of all our issues since 2018 amongst others.

I do wonder if part of the reason we signed this kid, is because we expect Frank to get sacked and so we don't want to commit big funds to bring in his big targets. Whereas it's easier to bring in club targets which this kid will be.

I have no idea how this window will pan out, but I can't see many big deals happening for two reasons.

There aren't many clubs looking to sell their best players mid season, and I don't think the club are in the mood to go big on Frank.

So if we do have a quiet January, it will be a very big signal that the club are keeping the money for the next manager. Because no way the Lewis's were planning to not spend in their first window as owners. All the noise was we were going to splash the cash, and if we don't, it's because Frank is a goner.
 
VDV will force the move and go for alot cheaper. That one is going to end very toxic. Let's hope he heads to Spain because I've a feeling it'll be much worse and might be the closest we get to the next sol Campbell situation. The gap between us and Woolwich is the biggest its been since then, so they could potentially poach our best players again.

Romero's hands are tied but I'm sure he'll do his best to have Athletici make a bid.

If Mick does that it's gonna be worse than name calling in this era.

Using his leverage to get more minutes, hopefully.

He's looked worth the minutes.

What's he going to be? A 9? wide forward? Can't ultimately see him being elite in the PL at either. Lacks physical qualities for the 9, lacks dribbling ability for the wide stuff. I guess the club saw him as a Son - cut in, shift and shoot - type in the making, I just don't think he's going to hit that level. And Son frustrated the shit out of me plenty.

Would be really happy to see him go on loan somewhere he can play every week and then assess/cash out.
 
Renewed optimism whenever window opens

For years we being signing potential.
Scout has to go seriously overpaying for Richardlison, Johnson

They can't get any right signing from these brasil league.

Reckon we get Mataeta, Munoz from palace and Karem from Brighton.

Bentacur, gray, Romero can go
