    Mid-window review: ins/outs?

    I guess the meltdown on Twitter on missing out on Nusa is down to two things, no one likes losing a player to a smaller club and we're probably further along in the teams development than we thought we would be at this stage in the season. The fact we're in amongst it at the top end of the table...

    Antonio Nusa

    I think it's crazy for any club to guarantee playing time to any player no matter who they are and what their potential is. If that's what happened here, and that's what's swayed it in Brentfords direction then that is a hell of a risk in such a young player.

    Player Watch: Ivan Perisic

    Total is 7 out in foreign loans, domestic loans count towards a different total so we have some room for manoeuvre still.

    Conor Gallagher

    Half of my family are Birmingham season ticket holders so I get to see plenty of their matches, JJ as he his known to the Birmingham fans is in my opinion one of their best players with plenty of potential to move on, he has scored some important goals for them this year and as you've said is...

    New Nike Kits 23-24

    If you take annual inflation into account, £35 back in 1995 is about £68 in today's money. (According to the bank of England's inflation calculator) so although it sounds a lot of money (and it is) today's prices are similar to what they have always been.

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 10th August

    the problem with your analogy is that your clothes had no say on who they were sold to. We have the problem where we need clubs to agree to buy the players and the players will actually need to agree to go. This also applies to cancelling contacts, it has to be an agreement between club and...

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 10th August

    There's also the issue that man city's fringe players are competing with the absolute best for a world class manager. If the player can't get into a team it's probably not because he's not good, it's probably that there are just 2/3 outstanding players for each position. Conversely at Spurs...

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 10th August

    WLB says it's an opportunity based on previous interest,that indicates some planning. Not all signings are going to be us identifying the exact player and putting resources to get him. It looks like we're trying a more data led approach to signings so if he fills one of the gaps we have them...

    The behind the scenes video showing his medical etc. (Combined video with VDV) Was posted on the spurs YouTube channel earlier today but I think there has been some other stuff going on today so most will have missed it.

    Harry Kane

    I think it was probably two reasons, firstly if we leave Kane out of the match squads and preseason trips it completely weakens any negotiation power the club had left as it would have been obvious he was going, perhaps being in bids from premier League clubs, while also weakening our hand in...

    It's more like we were in the final year of a lease for a supercar, the owner said we're not going to extend the lease and someone came in and offered us £100m for it. Now you love this car but with it being exported at least you don't need to watch someone else drive it for the next few years...

    Give Ange whatever he wants and let's move on.

    Harry Kane

    There's also the part where Charlie/Kane asked levy to negotiate with Bayern for his sale- Levy did that, agreed a deal, club starts work on replacements/additional players and now Kane says maybe no. I can see why Levey/the club aren't happy and want some assurances.

    Harry Kane

    Where do you draw the line though? Is it a week before the season starts? 2 weeks? It was up to Bayern to put up the cash which they appear to have now done. It's late, given the season starts this weekend but better now than August 31st. It gives us opportunity to strengthen whilst the window...

    Sky are reporting initial fee of £34.5m which seems more reasonable. I suppose depending on add-ons it could reach the reported £50m.

    Aymeric Laporte

    Seems like it could be an excellent signing if we can manage it as it kind of feels a bit like the Naybet signing way back, Naybet came in as the experienced player (at 34 iirc) and helped Ledley develop massively over his time with us. Laporte could do the same with VDV and help tame Romero a...

    Harry Kane

    Kane may think that any record that he puts up may be relatively short lived if Haaland sticks at Man City for any decent amount of time so might as well go and win something, can't get any more guaranteed than at Bayern.

    I think that list goes to prove that its not quantity of players purchased but quality (although we lack both presently), of that list of players for all the other clubs there is a lot of crap, many of which have already been sold or no longer play for those clubs.

    Harry Kane

    That was true for me at the start of all this but the more bullshit antics that Bayern pull, and make no mistake all the Bild stuff will be from them too, the more I think fuck em, let the world know they can't afford him and any bid was derisory.

    Please Players will have contracts with boot suppliers to exclusively wear their boots. Kanes contract with Nike is up and he's not announced who his deal is with yet so he's wearing unbranded boots until it is.
