Just now, Special Juan said:

I was but now Delap and Pedro have got me really confident, more so Joao Pedro he has been excellent.

I'm worried about the back line and keeper

GK and CB definitely, especially carrying and passing out from LCB, I hammered Colwill for not progressing considering how we all rated him and out of his tourney win but now it’s made me step back and think how integral he was, with his learnings, for our play.

Official bid has now been made from Spurs to Leipzig and is close to the amount RB want

Talks ongoing

[mkh 759]

EXCLUSIVE | Tottenham have now officially submitted an offer to RB Leipzig for #Xavi Simons!

It is already close to the offer that RB are expecting – €70 million all-in.

No offer from Chelsea yet. #CFC

lets see what will happen but Im not confident at all

[Strike 7,786]

Thomas Frank tried to get Morgan Gibbs-White and Eze. Might end up with Simons. Hate to see Spurs go for good pick-ups.

Imagine if we just end up with Garnacho and nothing else.. this fanbase will fall into a frenzy 😂 

fwiw I think Garnacho will be a pleasant surprise. He seems to really want this to work out

[Special Juan 28,763]

I think Spurs will chuck everything at this Simons after losing out on Eze

They have moved now, it's whether we move the next chess piece and time is now heavily ticking

[Mhsc 1,146]

Honestly find the transfer window so tiresome these days, can't wait for the window to be over.

Really wish they'd do transfer deadline day before PL starts.

[TheHulk 2,647]

I wonder how this idiot can show his face anymore if he goes to Spurs, didn't this cretin come up with some exclusive that he rejected Spurs.

[Special Juan 28,763]

Breaking

Spurs have not sent a bid for Simons and won't unless they are sure they can sign him

Chelsea and Leipzig are locked in advanced talks, still things to sort between clubs before we can say done deal

 

[Pizy 19,279]

Guess we’ll find out very soon how determined Xavi has been about Chelsea and only Chelsea as has been reported time and again.

Or whether he just got extremely annoyed/frustrated that we have been dragging this on for over a month with no movement and Spuds have turned his head. Convinced him that he’s the key to them becoming a top team or something. 

[TheHulk 2,647]

Doesn't give me confidense.

[Pizy 19,279]

Hasn’t been a peep about Fermín since the Ornstein tweet btw. If the Xavi deal was in jeopardy I’d expect to start seeing briefs that Fermín Lopez is the one we’ve wanted all along.

[iceboy 1,046]

I think we will give up on Xavi.

[TheHulk 2,647]

 

[Special Juan 28,763]

As it stands we have full control on what happens with Simons, he wants to come but it's down to us, if we want him we get it done, if not we are going to walk away and let him join Spurs.

Spurs only come into it if we drop all interest, right now with us in club to club talks the door isn't open to them, the door only opens if we allow it

[TheHulk 2,647]

Should've fucking signed Simons first and Garnacho last since he rejected everyone and said he would wait until last day for us.

[Mário César 1,483]

but simons is so good or is another flop of bundesliga?

Hard to understand. Especially with Palmer currently injured you’d think we’d want to aggressively push through Xavi who can slot in seamlessly into that position and hit the ground running.

Instead, we’re prioritizing Garnacho who would surely be weeks away from being match ready even if he were signed today. He hasn’t played football in how long now? With no preseason? 

[Mhsc 1,146]

Hard to care about Simons, Garnacho, Fermin or whoever else when the two biggest problems in the squad are GK and CB, two positions with no rumours and the club don't give a fuck about, despite being the two things that would be transformational and genuinely elevate us if we sorted them out, instead we're losing our minds looking for squad depth in positions we already have/had reasonable options.

Doesn't matter if we lose our on Simons and Spurs pay a fuck load for him. Its just squad filler we're stressing about here. That's why the club have not moved fast on any of it. They got the signings they thought were important done early.
