Transfer fred.

Not really ... I'd take identifying players within budget, strike early, get the team training together and ready, over a wild goose chase, only to try to haggle the price down to the point we have to walk away, wasting evryones time and then clamouring for loans or grade "D" players ...

I think you are overthinking it a bit. :D
 
These are just rumors but ESPN generally doesn't post garbage like The Daily Mail or The Sun do. I don't know what ESPN's reputation is in the UK but it's not like you guys are the pinnacle of journalism with all your tabloids. Obviously, we've got lots of garbage over here in the US as well, but ESPN is not one of those garbage outlets.

Anyway, the point is other teams like United and Chelsea are sniffing around Ferguson. I'm sure after Rasmus' goals during the break, there will be lots of interest in him too from all over the place.

Christ on a jet ski. ESPN FC is absolutely the bottom of the barrel. They stoop and bend and utterly suck off all the big clubs. The worst snide tripe I've ever heard, especially about Spurs. That said, I harbour no ill will toward Shaka Hislop - father of a Spurs fan - especially after his recent on-air collapse. Wish him well and hope he's rearing more Spurs fans in his brood. But the two flabby Scotsmen they have spouting rubbish can just fcuk right off.

I never said their pundits are good. I don’t watch any punditry of any organization. But when they report news with their sources, I haven’t seen it be wrong on more than one occasion in ten years. There are much worse outlets out there, considering you have talksport and daily mail and the sun and bleacher report. I can keep going.

I think you may live in a country where they may get it right
Most do us don’t
They are another trailer trash organisation with no one connected
They tend to only say things when it’s final stages now
Chelsea have signed another 2 players, i really don’t get how this can happen? It’s absolutely ridiculous.
They are signing them

then loaning them to the club they own in France

I reckon there will be a loan fee - inter company transfer

I also think they will end up pushing some loop hole on player loan numbers
 
Don't really know anything about our new signings but I like the new approach.

Feels like we are actually scouting players again and looking for young hungry talented players.

When you look at our successful signings they fitted a profile. Early 20s played 60 plus league games at least in their league, internationals. I'm thinking Eriksen, Vera's, Toby, Lloris etc. Prices not top of the market at that time.

Ndombele should have a framed photo in the scouts office as a daily reminder of what not to do.
They are using data more and more
I don’t know who we have doing it but I’ve been to twice now it’s a company associated with bookmakers … they know data
 
£105m for rice and they want to spend £100m on 5 players.... £20m will get you a championship player these days, and not always a good one.

Still can not get my head around that fee for Rice. For half the money the could have got Mount ( who imo is a better player).
