Spurs 26/27 | Flashing the cash

Are they still after Savinho? Maybe that's who he was on about

I'd say so, this has been going on since last transfer window, it's hardly been a secret. He is not getting much game time at City, and his competition at Spurs for that left wing spot is Tel. Seems a bit of a no brainer from both parties perspective, it's just what kind of a fee Spurs are willing to pay and City are willing to accept.
 
Selling their best player for £34 million. Gonna need another concert to recoup his transfer fee
 
The Spurs wage bill is going to be mental if they get him too. I reckon he’s going to want at least £250k a week.

Osimhen gives off mercenary vibes to me. He seems like he’ll look the business in the first dozen games and then drop off a cliff form wise.

£250k take home maybe.

It will be glorious if they finally achieve relegation after bottling it the past two seasons.
 
Then what?

What will you do?

Complain about them winning the transfer window despite being literal relegation candidates last year?

Stop caring about transfers and care about actual football,
Stop being a wet fish

It's impressive if they get someone like him as it will definitely transfer them into CL spot challengers. It's a thread about spurs on a football forum.

I’m not being a wet fish. You’re getting worried by a nonsense tweet about a nonsense club who have been awful for years.

Neh the wet fish is ALWAYS the one crying about transfers. Thats like the law.

That’s far from true.

Why? He's unproven in England. Solanke didnt turn them into CL spot challengers and he'd scored 19 goals in the premier league the previous season, after Spurs had finished 5th. They signed him and came 17th
 
Here us a little bit of comedy reading for you.


‘Now, Fernandes revealed that his relationship with Spurs boss Roberto De Zerbi and the “desire” to fight at the top of the Premier League factored into his decision to join Tottenham over Man Utd.

“The desire of playing for a big club, winning games, to fight for the Premier League, for the title,” Fernandes told The Athletic when asked why he joined Tottenham.’

Joker. having said that if they do get a striker like Osimhen it could transform them.
 
They would definitely be interested in Rashford, however the problem is he sees them as below him

I do wonder sometimes if fans buy some of the shite players spout when they sign for clubs.

He’s young, he probably believes it. I suspect deep down every player wants to challenge for titles but I think the Spurs ownership want to avoid another relegation fight at all costs. A top six finish and they could sell it.

Sounds better than saying it’s for the money. But they do look like they’ll be in the top 6 given how they’re shaping up.

I know it's been a while since United have won the title, but maybe he should have checked the Tottenham Wikipedia page as well...

Think Cody Gapko is the prefer choice for that left wing position,. allegedly Spurs have been trying for a while this summer to land him.

Rashford unfortunately his ego thinks he's good enough for the elite teams of Europe. He'll have a rude awaking in two years when he's out of contract and no one will pay him anywhere near his previous deal

Not as bad as the rude awaking Jadon Sancho seems to be having...

Yeah training with Flixton

In who’s place?

I think Liverpool could really struggle. They had so much weakness in defence last year. Now Konate is gone (he was poor anyway) and VDV is a year older.
I think City and Arsenal are nailed on (although that Pep factor is gone). Chelsea and us should be but I do worry we’ve not attacked the market.

Probably Villa and one other. Villa need better than Gernacho though.

They've got no European football, same as Chelsea, while all the others do. I could see both Spurs and Chelsea have a decent league season. I find it hard to predict United's season, too much bias and we've generally been hard to predict. Anywhere from 7th-1st (I'm not expecting a top 2, or even top 3 finish). I think Spurs over Villa is not unrealistic, depends on whether De Zerbi can hold himself in check and what they do with their forward line, but they're not looking bad after those signings they've made, and Villa have Onana injured and Tielemans and Rogers gone and Watkins a year older. It's not looking amazing is it?
 
Gakpo and Savinho being their top 2 attacking targets is a bit .... meh.
 
Tonalli, Bruno as CMs, Madisson as a 10 and Osimhen as out and out Striker isnt a bad team really. They have probably reinforced their back 4 and they had Porro also (and Spence who is a good versatile player).

They seem to be making the right moves to go back to top 6. if not challenge for top 4. Newcastle will remain mid table, Bournemouth and Sunderland probably drop this year and not sure how i feel about Aston Villa. Arsenal, Shiteh, UTD, and Chelsea, Tottenham, Liverpool are probably locked for top 6.
 
Bournemouth will get better, they've kept their squad intact. See no reason why Villa will get worse either, one of the few PL teams that have a settled Manager.

I see next season as a lottery. So many clubs have new Managers that anything could really happen. Top 6 will be as tight as normal and the lack of European football will help Tottenham and Chelsea. We will probably struggle to adjust.

The big issue I have with Tottenham is they simply cannot keep their squad fit. They break down and have an injury crisis which results in their form dropping off a cliff.

Very meh. Especially when it's apparently £70m for Gakpo according to their ITK who has seemingly been spot on for them this year.
