Summer 2017 transfer window or, waiting for Godot

[Aaron Manc]

Fucking el, you switched from city to united quickly.

Or maybe...... subjectively making predictions based on projected reality and not acting like a lobotomised, biased chimp due to same-city rivalry isn't beyond some people. I tipped Chelsea to win the league this season and City to struggle to make top 4....

Dier will be United captain within 2 seasons; reserve the ridicule until after the fact, and save some face. The next few months will make those convinced Dier isn't going anywhere will look very stupid.

Sporting Lisbon Nabil Bentaleb (they hate being called that)

Regarding the post, I think the most important thing is that they played together in the academy for a long time.

I said before in the thread that Bruma would be a great signing and could do wonders in the EPL. Won't cost a lot of money, that's a good thing.

All a bunch of cunts

I would take noble from wet spam. them make him hold the pitchfork for the divot man. Just to totally troll spam

I would take Lanzini off them in a heartbeat. I think he's a Poch player, as he does a lot off the ball. Perfect Erikssen backup.

 

[Totti]

Walker odds on for City. Though it's going to be based on the speculation.

Id like to think we'd give these players pay rises after the season they've had. City are going to go for it though.

 

[SausageVince]

Great players can come and go. It's Poch we need to keep

 

[SausageVince]

As soon as a player thinks about going, he's gone.

If any of our players consider it, we should simply get the best price for them and seek replacements.

This must be the club's ethos.

Very well. I have now bookmarked this post. I will come back to it in a few months to laugh at you then, not now.

Why would any of our players want to leave to go to another PL club? Unless it's for money then I can't think of any other reason as we are challenging for the league again, should have CL football again, have the best manager in the league, and a new stadium round the corner........
I really hope none of our players have there head turned by money......... but if they do then I trust Levy to get the best deal possible, plus an extra 20 million!

 

[Gatsby]

Can't see Walker leaving. He'll go down as a legend at Spurs. Granted he'll get a far wage rise at City, but I think he can win something with us and is already the best RB in the league playing with us. Levy will want £35m+



On another note, congrats to Newcastle on being promoted. There's a loss waiting for us next season. They've been our bogey team for a while at home. Suppose it depends where home is next year.

Bullshit. That's the ethos of a club with no ambition.

I think it's possible that some of it is agent manufactured with eyes toward a better deal or terms. I'm of the notion that Dier's future is in midfield. I think he's happy at Spurs, but dropping a line to journalists saying that Dier is interested in United also gives him a much better hand at negotiating a better deal and/or moving him to his favored position.

Will you promise to fuck off in the meantime?

.....Yet at different times you've alluded to yourself as to being City AND Utd.

Identity crisis.. Bit like both the above clubs.

And how do we expect to keep Poch if we let our "Great Players" go. Your pissing on your own fireworks with that statement.

 

[Notabadsquad]

I think if Walker goes knocking on the door of the manager or chairman, then the first thing to consider is what we would do if we had a sense of our own worth. Probably hope we got an improved contract and carry on.

However footballers and their agents know what is being offered by suitors so I just see this as a slight irritation but also one that is a real possibility. Put this way I think we have so many good players that resisting all bids will be more a matter of Pochetiino saying what will we do with any money we receive.

In this crazy market our players are going to cost crazy money but money the likes of City, United and Chelsea will pay in this country and the big 5/6 in Europe would also follow.

Walker would be big loss because his pace and aggression are not easy to acquire and are integral to how we play BUT Trippier has got better and if we can do our scouting then we might find a much cheaper alternative.

I prefer to keep our best players but we all know that we also need slight improvements. What I hope is that much of what we are reading is paper talk but there is rarely talk without some solidity and I also think this is 100% a matter of money over ambition, because if not you would not consider leaving us at the present time.

We shall see but I expect Walker back on Wednesday.

 

[The Swellhead Spur]

By that logic, Gareth Bale's a leftback

By your logic you speak to Eric Dier every hour of the day for updates, how is he tonight?

"Tottenham til I die"

Kyle Walker - January 2017


I love him. The media can go fuck themselves with these endless bullshit rumours.

 

[VirginiaSpur]

The script for all of this has already been written, when Modric went on strike after Chelsea offered 40m.

Levy does not strengthen our rivals. Not anymore.

And if your hoping to fill a 90,000 stadium every fortnight, pissing off your fanbase ain't a good place start.

Read a study that was done on how money affects your happiness, as you would expect earning more makes you happier, however a point is reached after which earning more money no longer has any effect on happiness. I think the cut off point was something like 100K a year...so most of our lads should be happy enough already...unless they are really greedy cunts of course...
