January 2023 Transfer Thread. The Big One

[Brian Fantana]

Not for me.

He is a truly awful in defence, can't tackle, dives in, gets lost positionally and let's his player run off him.

He can cross a ball though.

So he’s better than Sessegnon then, is that what your saying?

He is a better finisher too.

Quite the opposite.

Reggie is useless

We've ruined [Sessengon].

Rubbish.

We've invested big money (for a kid), time and patience in him.

Yr 1 - Arrives with hamstring injury. Struggles to make an impact. (12 apps/134 days injured)
Yr 2 - Deemed in need of a loan and actually gets a ear long loan for a decent club in Germany the following season. Mixed season. (29 apps/47 days injured)
Yr 3 - Comes back next season; niggling injures continue. Then gets sent off within 20 minutes of his big come back. Conte still backs him (when fit!) in the second half of last season (22 apps/167 days injured).
Yr 4 - Conte again backs him by shipping Reg out instead and gives him plenty of game-time this season (23 apps so far!).

Despite playing well on some isolated occasions; he's simply failed over and over to put together a run of good performances in our shirt.

He's not. Reg is pretty much allergic to scoring.......

 

[Archie]

Playing to the fcuking crowd here. Who is out there thst we reasonably could have bought?

Simple question.

It should have been sorted out in the summer. Every transfer window these fuckers do the bare minimum. It's been that way for years. No plan, no vision, just revenue.
Why does Levy think, he deserves to be the best paid chairman?
Because hes been failing for 23 years.

 

[kingdawson]

Even then; much much much rather keep Davies.

they're both so meh.

If pushed I would say Davies is more reliable so I'd probably rather he be the back up LCB but if the club somehow got a decent bid for him and went with Lengelt as the back up I wouldn't give a damn either.

 

[Fred99]

I'm sick of people on here criticising Levy and the board all the time. We've got what really matters. Beyonce doing a concert at the Stadium

I'd still rather spend the money on someone else... Or even give Rodon those minutes.

 

[John Thomas]

 

[Richard Arlison]

We've ruined him.

He's heading for the well trodden path that super Johny Bostock and Zeki Fryers took.

The road to nowhere.

At this level if you allow yourself to be ruined you don’t belong.

It’s not kids sport or amateurs. Conte or whoever coaching doesn’t owe Sess anything. As long as he puts you in the team it’s on you to do what you get paid for. He needs to decide if he really fucking wants it or not and develop some character.

Beyoncé and the $2m gig for Colonel Gaddafi's son

Did Beyoncé not have any idea about who was paying for her services? None other than Hannibal Gaddafi, the out-of-control son of the Libyan leader

www.theguardian.com

Considering the outcry again Qatar and other owners with dubious human rights records, do we really want this kind of thing? It shows zero morals and a total worship of profit. I'd also point out the the whole Gaddafi family were avowed anti semites so why give this jumped up egotistical narcissist a platform at our stadium? Clear answer, money.

 

[Airfixx]

If only that could have been bagged yesterday, we could have put it towards gazumping Chavs over Fernandes!

 

[scott]

I'm starting to wonder if this disgraceful, cheapskate, cop out of a window is a FUCK YOU from Levy to the fans for singing "Levy Out"

He doesn’t feel pressure. He is a robot

 

[scott]

They'll do the bare minimum every window to stop an all out fan revolt or empty seats starting to become visible. Never more than that, just enough.

A cheap loan & 1 decent signing is a perfect window for them. But we pay on the pitch.

 

[GGTH]

That's the Lloris replacement sorted.

 

[scott]

I think a centre back that can defend would be pretty appealing to any manager..

Also the majority of the top clubs haven't got the neglected issues that spurs do

Reminds me when Liverpool were winning the CL & the title & the levy/enic lovers were comparing us to them. Now they are comparing ourselves to city & Woolwich who are on another level to us sadly. So deluded!

 

[Deleted member 15314]

He doesn’t feel pressure. He is a robot

He does, if it's financial pressure. It's what got him to sack Poch and hire both Mou and Conte with their huge wages.

The fans don't matter.

And Qatari owners.
