Pizy 19,249 Posted August 27, 2025 Share Posted August 27, 2025 9 minutes ago, OhForAGreavsie said: I think the real flaw in the strategy during this transfer window may, and I stress may, have been to over estimate the amounts achievable from the sales of Jackson and Nkunku. I say may because, until the window closes, we can't really know whether or not the club has accomplished what it set out to do. It is possible that, had the club realised it might not achieve the necessary value from those sales it may well have reordered at least one incoming transfer. If the club genuinely saw Gittens as a higher priority than Simons or Garnacho then fair enough. If they miscalculated however, then that error is going to put our squad development back at least 6 months and probably more. Think you’re spot on regarding Jackson and Nkunku. The club may have badly overestimated how much other clubs would value these two. We probably figured we’d be able to comfortably make near what we paid for Nkunku and probably thought that with so many clubs super desperate for a striker that we’d easily be able to double our money on Jackson. After these things didn’t happen all summer we have then started to hope that clubs like Newcastle or Villa would get really desperate and just throw money at us. But even that hasn’t happened. Other clubs are calling our bluff. OhForAGreavsie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,729 Posted August 27, 2025 Share Posted August 27, 2025 Romano has been on live and said Spurs will not go near Simons unless Chelsea move away from the transfer, it's blocked for Spurs right now and talks are advanced. Nkunku is the piece of the puzzle for Simons xPetrCechx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 19,249 Posted August 27, 2025 Share Posted August 27, 2025 Wonder if we’re dumb enough to include a sell on with Garnacho. That would make an already underwhelming deal pretty shitty. One of the positives the pro Garnacho people point to is that we can always sell him for profit in the future. Well, we can’t if we give United a sell on percentage which we’ve done with several deals recently under Clearlake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
