To save me reading the last 15 pages are we currently optimistic, pessimistic or pant-wettingly furious about this deal happening or not?

Yes

All 3

Feels like a Diaz situation

 

[Yid-ol]

Clearly not what I mean, and you know that.

You said how did we let them come in, or a long those lines. We didn't let anyone in, they bid because they seen us moving. We could have bid last week, or next week and they would have done the same

This has been one of the stranger player transfer threads for a while.

Gotta love though the second anything looks like it has gone askew, the Anti-Levi brigade all jump on their big red truck, switch on the sirens and go for a long drive through the thread neg-repping anyone who has the audacity to say anything that may come across like it is defending Levy. EG: Like, maybe this was an agent driven rodeo/shit show? And once neg-repping, they then get the hoses and out and flood the thread with an ocean of invectives.

I get it. You hate him. And anything bad that happens is his fault. And a lot of things are.

But, can you just be a little more chill with people who don't immediately fall in line with your perspective. Especially the ones who don't contribute anything to SC in terms of the written word, but love that neg rep button! Use your words.

Personally, I'm not willing to start spitting fire at Dear Leader until we know how this has all played out. Instead of just making absolute assumptions.

For example, I have an assumption. But it's not an absolute. My assumption is that we got played. Simple as.

I think we all remember the January window that saw us miss out on Vlahovic, Diaz and Traore to bigger clubs. In the end we got Bentancur and Kulusevski. In hindsight we might even be happy at not getting any of those 3 missed targets.

This is why I try to not get too invested in individual targets. If he still comes, great. If not hopefully one of the other names being mentioned is available to us.

Genoa want the deal with Tottenham over Bayern due to upfront fees . Mr agent has briefed Tottenham Dragusin will speak to the club again today which we will then know the players state after already agreeing terms with Radu. Tottenham are doing everything possible to get this secured I may stress. Circle of life and all that but we are still confident blindly maybe haha and yes Fabio is leading this through levy and munn unofficially.

My WLB translator has got stuck on BEN mode - please assist with the bold.

A little of columns A, B and C.

 

[Maxtremist]

Agree to an extent but i'm sure we could of closed it a bit quicker if we knew Bayern were trying to hijack the deal
Always seems to happen more to Spurs than other vlubs.

Do you follow other clubs transfers as closely as you follow ours? Do you follow every step?

Just last year alone, look at Arsenal and how certain Mudryk was going to be playing for them until Chelsea hijacked it. Happens to everyone.

The most interesting parts.

If I’m reading this right, the delay is with the player. I get that we all need to explore all our options but from a Spurs fan point of view, this concerns me a little. If he had a wobble because BM flashed their knickers, what‘s going to happen when RM flash their ass at him in two years time?

Wasn’t a question for you WLB, just stating my opinion on what you posted.

 

[Tractorspur]

I miss the good old days when we would get to a 100 pages and bosh the player signing is announced.

 

[fishhhandaricecake]

I just want a conclusion today!

No you don’t, edge, deny, edge, deny. Let’s not lie it’s what we are all in the transfer forum for and why we are all spurs fans, we are sluts for punishment.

 

[Hercules]

To add to this the Bayern bid didn’t come in when reported it was this afternoon deep conversations have been taking place all afternoon post this from Tottenham

Let me add, all paperwork in our lawyers hands, and amicable with Genoa’s legals. I was blaming Daniel, but got firmly rebuked saying it is all Genoa. We’ve been very aggressive. Dragusin gave his word, instructing his agent to get it done.

 

[Doctor Dinkey]

He may well yet choose us. Bayern are the bigger club for sure, but they already have 3 world class CBs so there's no guarantee he's going to play. If he signs with us he's playing against man united at Old Trafford on Sunday. Also the Premier League is where the high profile action is. And we have Ange. So I wouldn't slit your wrists just yet.

I thought the same. My interpretation is “His agent has told Spurs that Radu will clarify his preference to us today, after which we’ll know where his head is. It’s not about adjusting/bartering terms, they’re agreed”
Could of course be wrong!!

 

[only1waddle]

Ange won’t lose sleep over this one if it doesn’t happen, so I don’t think we should get ourselves all worked up over it, either. He wants full commitment, so if he elects to go to Bayern he’ll just know he wasn’t all-in. Better to know now than later. If he doesn’t choose us, I look forward to hearing who our next option is.

I agree, but I do think he might be a little frustrated, thankfully he's a realist and not a toys out the pram merchant.

He has no reason to favour us over other clubs. If Bayern come in for a player, they'll always have a good chance of being the preferred choice.

If he does come here and his performances are good enough for Real Madrid to be interested, I'm fine with that.

You said how did we let them come in, or a long those lines. We didn't let anyone in, they bid because they seen us moving. We could have bid last week, or next week and they would have done the same

I meant, if the personal terms had been agreed a week ago as said by fab, itk etc - we’ve potentially let them in by not concluding the deal quicker ( yes I know lots of moving parts etc ) but you’re just being facetious.

yes they could had done the same as soon as we made an official bid,

 

[cjsimba]

Evening Ashley, err you might want to repack your suitcase. There’s a train ticket on the 19:50 from Plymouth to Paddington all booked for you.

Love,
Coys Daniel x



Ps. I forgot to book you a seat.

 

[mattspur1986]

Allowed? What do you expect us to do?
Any club could put in a bid with Genoa, we can't do anything to stop 'em. You can't really do exclusivity with transfers

Again, I don’t mean stopping them literally FFS.
