How Cupid. I mean stupid.

 

I was excited last night but now I’m scared we’re going to miss out on both guys

 

Palace want the full release clause of £68m. Two things:

a) I can't see Arsenal spending that on someone who wants to play as a 10. Someone who would be a luxury for them, not a necessity like a 10 is for Spurs.

b) £68m would be a huge statement of intent from Levy. Especially as a replacement for a £40m player like Maddison. It presents a huge opportunity for Spurs to advance as a club.

I think I rate your chances.

^^ this is my concern

 

Fully agree. He isn’t essential for us. He wouldn’t even start every (or most) games. So I think it’s a stretch.

 

Also, Chelsea and United are both gonna go for Donnarumma aren’t they?

 

Love to see in there people at United are skeptical still it can get done and that Brighton value him at Caicedo’s price

 

Just do it

 

City it seems. Donnarumma is outside both ours and Chelsea’s wage structures. I highly doubt we go for it.

I also really really fucking hope we don’t. I’d rather keep Onana

 

Why haven’t we sold him yet?

 

Grealish took number 18 like Rooney and Gasgoine.

 

Madrid are BIG MAD about this and that makes me want it to happen even more now.

 

35m? Insane deal

 

What the fuck is Isak doing?

 

Ah ffs, that's genuinely the better signing than Isak for what Liverpool actually need. They're going to be insane this year

 

Guehi was always going to go cheap due to having all the cards tbf.

 

Love it. Well deserved.

 

Crazy to see some Spurs fans complaining about these rumors lol they’re worried we won’t have “a passer” in the midfield. Not sure where it’s coming from. But I feel comfortable saying this would be a massive upgrade to what we’ve had the last couple seasons.

 

League Cup is a silly competition anyway.

 

Hull were 3-1 up in the 90th minute to Wrexham, then conceded two goals and lost on pens.

This is Hull’s 10th cup loss in a row. Their last cup win was in 2021 when they won against Fleetwood in the EFL Trophy. Christ.

 

Always a fun thread which I thought we could do here. Here are my stupid, terrible predictions:

- City annoyingly end up walking the league in the same way Liverpool did last year. Reijnders is the game changer.
- Haaland gets way fewer goals as the output is effectively spread around the rest of the team, (I have captained him in FPL to balance this out lol).
- Havertz and Gyokeres end on the exact same number of goals in the league.
- Pedro and Palmer have incredible seasons but Chelsea finish outside of the top four (please), and Maresca is sacked.
- Postecoglou is either Brighton/Brentford manager by the end of the season.
- Grealish POTS contender and is in the England squad for the world cup, Everton finish top 8 (for @KrisArronNev )

 

DCL to Leeds! Fallen on his arse. I don't even care if he scores on Monday.
