I'm curious to know how we go from fees agreed we've offered a better package than the chavs and it's up to Zaha and Zaha wants us to it's dead?
Iam going to take a guess and say we never offered him nothing as no fee has ever been agreed.

It’s just sad that this really comes as no surprise to any of us. We can’t even sort a player from a team near the foot of the table

And when we also seem incapable of getting a championship player, maybe we should be setting our sights on league one and two.

We offered palace £4.50 and 2 dead moths, unfortunately when daniel opened his wallet one of the moths had perished so we had to withdraw our offer hence the dead itk

I won't lie my bias towards wanting the deal being done means I'm choosing to believe herc is winding us up

Please enlighten me on why players such as GKN, Janssen haven't been shipped out yet then? Surely out of the hundreds of clubs out there at least one would like them in their squad. I know why, Levy is looking for mega bucks for them when himself wouldn't even pay more than 5m for either of them because of their performances past season or two. He's demanding 2015 prices for incomings and 2018 prices for sales. Therefore the reason why we've found us in this HG mess is because of his reluctance to cut his losses on poor buys.
Because the clubs interested in purchasing them have another month to decide whether they want to buy them or not. They will wait till we can't buy and possibly have to sell and offer peanuts.

If you're going to blame anyone, blame the 17 clubs that voted for the English transfer window to end early (of which we were one of them)

We must be signing Bale after all

I wouldn't be surprised if Palace signed several players ready to sell Zaha to Spurs, only for Levy to then try and get the price down knowing they've already committed to his replacements. He'll join Chelsea now I'm sure and we'll get Plea.

Why don't everyone calm fucking down..
Jeez..
Levy was in the USA. FFS. Now he's back we will sre
Lets go into melt when and if we don't buy
Seriously... Get a life

If our lack of activity has anything whatsoever to do with Levy being in America, then it’s a total disgrace. He earned £5m last year.

Surely this can’t be the case.

Spurs don’t make a signing in the season they go in the their new stadium and miss out on the champions league because Daniel Levy was on holiday.

Why do so many feel like they have to tell others how to react or feel? If fans are frustrated then venting their frustration in a discussion forum in the spesific player thread is more than fair without getting told to get a life?

We have signed no one and the window close in 8 days. It's allright to be frustrated or worried about that.

He's signed for Borussia Monchenbiscuits (gladbach)

Every year you have the self righteous saying “Why don’t you wait until the window shuts” but this has happened time and time again and we’re always let down.

Completely understandable that people are worried.

Are you 3 years old? Obviously I was writing that from a different perspective. Insinuating that you’re more of a fan, get off your high horse you moron.

I was also replying to the notion that he is returning from holiday. He wasn’t on the whole tour with the team until yesterday’s game. Wasn’t a dig at your post.

We haven't raised the funds through sales to even contemplate making a bid in my opinion. Until there is a sale I have no expectations of buying anyone before next week. We're not going to suddenly spend 50-60m net when we've got a stadium to pay for, it's clearly just not going to happen.

If i was predicting I'd say it's likely we'll hold out for martial but end up with cash plus Shaw for Toby. Then we'll buy a CB with rest of that money, sell Rose and last minute try for Grealish again and likely miss out.

Our main problem is the relegation of West Brom and Stoke! They were the clubs that the Janssens and NKoudous of this world would go to for huge money. :LOL:

We are not going to sign anybody. There I said it. Every other team wanted to invest and has done, we have not. Did we need to invest in the team yes of course. Am I disappointed well yes. Am I going to cry, well no.

With the amount of individual players guessed at with the Cabbage cryptic, chances are very high that he was a wrong guess that turned out to be right.
That is true but then the idea is that if you lettuce all have a guess then someone is bound to guess right.

shockng that so many people agree with this post. Shocking but unsurprising. So many melts on here.

There is no magic money tree. We operate under tight financial constraints and have bought well in the circumstances. Our first 11 is pretty much as good as anyone so our signings can’t be that bad.

How you can say you’ve been let down is beyond me really. Kind of strange entitlement you would expect from a Liverpool or Man Utd fan.
