  1. We’ve got a Marvelous solution for that.
  2. I thought we played really well! Spurs squad worth maybe 8X ours, with real quality everywhere. Mings, Engels and Heaton were superb, fullbacks worked hard but the gulf in quality told. Hourihane a passenger in midfield carried by McGinn & Grealish today. Luiz not on long enough to say, Jota very average & not convinced about El Ghazi at this level either. That said, Spurs are one of Europe’s best sides & for 70 minutes they couldn’t break us down. We’ll learn from the errors & for this team’s first proper game I’m pretty happy with that.
  3. Safe to get excited about a new striker again!
  4. Agree, think it would rest entirely on his choice, not the money.
  5. I can imagine Luiz playing his way in-front of Hourihane pretty quickly, Hassan taking Jota’s spot & Benrahma surpassing El Ghazi if we do sign him. On the striker front who knows? Depends what they pull out of the hat this week!
  6. Yep and probably Benrahma too. Stunning transformation of the club/team. Will take a while to figure out our best starting XI, but hopefully not too long.
  7. No, but if you imagine a giant pair of scissors closing over his legs that’s pretty much it.
  8. If we signed someone from outside the EU on or before deadline day can the WP be sorted afterwards, or does it need clearance before a player can legally sign?
  9. Duvan Zapata? Bit older at 28 (so is Jota) but in 48 starts for Atalanta he’s scored 28 with 8 assists. Him and Wesley together would be frightening. Maybe get JPA to have a word..
  10. Yep, astonishing. When Spurs beat Madrid last night it was a reality check, but I can’t wait to see what that XI above can do!
  11. I can squeeze two more in - one at either end.
  12. Hassan looks good but all pretty flat so far.

    Douglas Luiz

    Aston Martin. I think this guy will turn out to be the best signing of the summer.
  14. I think we’ll get both in. Having necessary cover in every position is good risk management against relegation and spending more actually decreases risk.
  15. We’re going for some Barca-esque total football approach, aren’t we? Starting to look like Purslow meant what he said in those interviews about going out to win every game. By August this might be the most exciting side in my lifetime.
  16. **** the dog. Trezequet - Wesley - Benrahma. Imagine that...
  17. Wesley, Targett, Jota & Guilbert all looking like great business.
  18. Pretty clear from everything coming out of the club that a signing like this wouldn’t even be considered. Sturridge fails every criteria of a new recruit.
  19. **** off, really? That’s hysterical!!
  20. Our squad is thinner than numbers suggest, but the 1st choice back four looks promising.
