Selling Johnson means we've spent £20m effectively, on a 19year old who won't get a first-team game, like so many others.

Like Berg, Sarr, Gray, Udogie....? ...........Vusko?

Of our recent young acquisitions who do you have in mind?




Be honest; you've never seen the fucker play and are just shitting on his signing out of spite.

Lewis is nearly 90, and has not been involved in running the club for years. I wouldn't be surprised to hear that he's in a wheelchair somewhere in Florida or the Bahamas and suffering from dementia. Not sure where you've been but it's his kids and their son-on-law who now make the (admittedly still shit) decisions.

Did I hear right in Franks interviews that we’ll sign players tomorrow? It’s a dangerous game but we’ve form for waiting to the last possible moment and then adding decent players who weren’t available early window… the risks of things going tits up however and very high and should have been avoided at all costs given our injury crisis.

Club never learns, such a risk when, there is no time for alternatives if deals fall though.
Doubt very much anyone will be signed, apart from the women's team maybe.
 
New one today…..Spurs are going to bulldoze Man Utd away to sign an Argentinian centreback.

Same old thing…buy last minute….how many points could we have got if we’d bought them weeks ago? I might be wrong but I don’t think we can get any more loans as we already have Palhinha and Kolo Muani. If we want a couple of loans why not send Muani to Juve and pay the money for Palhinha early?

Calm down Mr Aggressive. I meant like Phillips, Viskovic, Takai, Rodon, Gil, Veliz, Yang - hardly got a sniff or a chance of a game, to prove themselves, with a run in the side, before loan or sale. My point is, we aren't spending money on first team upgrades, more 'hit and hope' for the future players, that, with our record, are unlikely to be that useful. Players like Gray and Bergval only got a chance because of injuries, otherwise they would likely not have played as much. Turns out they have a great future, hopefully.

I'll be as pleased any the next person if Souza turns out to be a Kyle Walker rather than an Emerson Royale, but what we needed in this window was first-team upgrades.
 
Nothing today should change the needs the squad has, and those who are calmed by our magnificent recovery should be the loudest in their vitriol.

This window has been absurdism at its fcuking worst.

Utter garbage.

Apparently, Romero is ill not injured, Solanke said he is ok. Not sure about Gray but yes we have issues with injuries big time.

This is probably not rational but this is something that I actually want to blame Ange for a little bit.

Ever since he opened his first season with talking about how we were above complaining to the referees about unfair treatment it has been open season on our players it feels like.

We were already the bully victim out of the big six but it feels like it has gone into overdrive since.

Meh...... Your OG post didn't say any of that though.

Gil & Rodon both got game-time...

Players like Vusko (who some here suddenly fear is gonna get stolen by Bayern!), Phillips, Yang, & Takai were all clearly bought to loan back out so really have no negative impact on the team we're likely to field.

Sure Veliz was farmed outfairly quickly (despite a couple of bright cameos); but to say he was bought instead of being focused on players for the senior squad? .....Both Dom & Richy were bought around the same time (alongside RKM & Tel being loaned in to further boost numbers).

Look at the average age of the team that played City of the park in the second half today? ....3 of those we signed as teens in recent years!


Frank said the young Brazilian lad is good enough for the senior squad....... Is it too much to ask to wait and see?
