Some of the members on here are utterly entitled. People seem to expect multiple £100m signings or something. It's not how any club is run. Very few, if any clubs are going out there and spending godly amounts of money on players. As for Golovin, we have no idea who our targets are. I don't just listen to what any old journo says about the situation as they only have so much info, they definitely don't know as much as people want to believe. 

I always give detailed 'how its all funded' postings

The only truly huge spend (as long as hazard and Kante are not sold) I ever advocated was, is, will be ICARDI, (and I fullllly paid for it)

we FUCKED it up badly, his release clause was only£98m, for arguably the best pure 9 in the word atm (I rate him here at the Bridge over Kane in Sarri Ball)

I refuse to toss CR7 into any discussion of pure 9, as he plays all over the damn place

Its not about signings only. Spurs have set themselves up for the next 30 years. They have a new stadium built, they have a new training complex, they have a young squad that is all tied up with 5 year contracts, they have a young manager with potential. Everything about Spurs is attractive at the moment for investors and sponsors. Take your blue tinted glasses of for a second. We were light years ahead of Spurs only 5 years ago but at the moment who do you say has a brighter future?? 

Actually it will be good for Chelsea and Arsenal if Spurs become more successful. For a lot of fans Spurs seem to be the bar, you pass them, you beat them, these mean your season wasn't that bad.

I want us to compete with Real, Barca and Bayern every season, but this is impossible when we constantly measure ourselves against this shitty Spurs team.

Juve supposedly want 80m~ for Pjanic, so he's in the same bracket as SMS in terms of price.

Talisca was a decent proposition before he decided to go after money instead of furthering his career. Players like that should be avoided at all cost

 

Lazio are holding firm at £120 to 130m 

they are not budging so far

There's been plenty of talk of them dropping down quite a bit after Ronaldo's deal.

I'd say 50-60m plus Pedro would get a deal done. However, we need to add RWF's rather than lose them right now.

Why?

It's a better springboard club for him. Going straight from Russia to Chelsea under the limelight is a huge step and a totally different pressure than playing in Monaco renowned for their youth development. He also probably can't be guaranteed a regular starting place here with Barkley, RLC and Fabregas all gunning for that third midfield spot. I think he can continue his progression under minimal pressure in a much stronger league, and in a year or two/three (if he becomes a great player) he can go to a big club with experience under his belt.

At this point i guess i am placing my hope on RLC, i believe Cesc, Kante, and Jorginho will start as the trio of midfielders. Barkely is the better goal scorer  than RLC and better instinct, but RLC is hands down the better midfielder.

It shows im an actual true fan because I am concerned about the incompetence of our current ownership. I am being objective. AC Milan under Berlesocni had the exact same problems look at them now. 

Ah the old "im more angry and hate the club more so im the better fan"

We're linked with about 4 more midfielders. I'd be shocked like I've never been shocked before if we signed any of them. They all seem impossible. We'd have to break our transfer record by a considerable amount in order to sign any of Pjanic, Thiago, or SMS.

Watch us panic buy that Vecino dude from Inter on deadline day. He was totally anonymous at the WC and didn't catch the eye at all.

Thiago is very much available and won't cost shit load unlike the two other players u mentioned...and as things stand right now we ain't gonna sign another midfielder lest alone vecino...

Thought I read the price rumored for Thiago was 75m or something?

[lucio 5,418]

this is why we won't progress as a club, missing a chance to bring in genuine quality , because we have players like moses and pedro who "can do a job"

[sainttourist 68]

disappointed, think he could be very useful. Can play on the right as well. Not understand the connection with Jorginho, mentioned by some reporters, different types and also Sarri talked about midfielder issue after Jorginho arrive. Hope for someone else, but with our policy cant get exciting.

Take Drinkwater, change his name to Daniele Natale Bereacqua (Daniel Noel Drinkwater in Italian) via deed poll

and ship him off to Lazio with £70m for M-S

Think Lazio would prefer the cash alone. [emoji1]
