VillaChris Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 8 hours ago, HanoiVillan said: Am I wrong, or does this feel like a pretty underwhelming signing? I know he scored a few worldies from off the bench, but he remained largely out of the starting XI for Fulham and his 'performance' at VP is up (or down) there with the worst I've seen in recent years from an opposition player. I'm not saying he's terrible or anything but it doesn't scream 'next level' to me? Maybe he'll be a great fit for the new guy's system? Just cover for Son and Kuluveski really, Spurs need way more out of those two compared to last season if they're to have any chance of top 6. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea how City get these kind of fees for players - £27m for this guy and Bazunu is bordering on criminal They sold Angus Gunn years back to Southampton for about 16m and he played about 5 games before he got shipped off to Norwich.

City hoover up all the youth so they can sell them off for profit I mean not many make it into there team even the much rated Lavia didn't get much of a sniff there. Literally what I do in PES master league, and I feel bad about it...like I'm cheating almost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Dogg Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 (edited) Jota going to Saudi from Celtic for £25 mill. I wonder if Celtic have stopped laughing yet. Edited July 4, 2023 by Mr_Dogg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking that must be a record sale from the SPL but apparently Kieran Tierney went for the same amount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to wonder how much Mendes is making out of it, the Ruben Neves transfer was equally inflated too given his contract situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've got words removed in the media trying to sell Emi Martinez off to Man Utd / Spurs for £25m, while a kid who has only played league 1, could fetch up to £19m for Citeh.

sne Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 Good squad option on a free transfer. The €400m buy out clause in his new contract is a bit comical thou. Be interesting to know how they come up with these numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be interesting to know how they come up with these numbers. I thought it was in part pro rata based on wages, so if you pay your players next to nothing they'll end up with lower release clauses, might be bollocks though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomaszk Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 Frankfurt getting Hugo Larsson and Ellyes Skhiri for under £10m is insane. What does Skhiri lack that every side in Europe wasn't after him? We definitely should* have signed him if we are after another midfielder. @GarethRDR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
