Transfer Window Summer 26/27

[ClemFandango]

Am I the only one who thinks he might have a hard time adapting to those vile ass fans

No because I agree. He got enough shit from our fans and theirs will be a hundred times worse.

Solomon to West Ham confirmed. £5m with £2m in add-ons and 10% sell-on clause.

Looked like our best player in the pre season games I've watched...

Goes to show these pre season games are an absolute joke and their only realm value is commercial.

 

[Yid]

Proper player... One of the only ones who never went missing during the troubles.

 

[Yid]

Still only going one way since that Europa League final... At least he has that.

 

[USspur]

 

[USspur]

For 25m just keep him and hopefully we are in europe next season and need two quality right backs. or loan him ffs

 

[Yid]

They can get fucked for €25m...

He's wayyyyy better than that and a stand out at the world cup... Way to versatile and important to be let go cheap.

 

[J.spurs]

25m for Djed Spence is an insult. Yes, we've brought in some good talent, but if we're looking to get rid of players of his and Bergvall's quality, we're a lot better than I think we are

 

[Dave]

The problem we have is I'd say Spence is pushing for the move.
We've got 4 left backs...Robertson, Udogie, Davies and Spence. I'd love to keep him and play him further up the pitch tbh, but if he's demanding a move his agent would've already given Inter the heads up...
Not ideal...

 

[Yid]

"ride the bench then you ungrateful prick"

 

[ClemFandango]

It's funny if you look back. Most of us were complaining that we never sold anyone and had players hanging around on big contracts taking up squad places.

Now we're actually moving people on, we're still complaining ..

Although I'd also like to keep Spence, for the record.

Fair criticism...

There's lots we've sold I wouldn't think twice about... There's lots we've kept I would rather we would have sold... There's the balance between what we have and what we can realistically get in... And then there's those that actively want to go and won't be part of our plans...

I think the way Spence was treated by some managers was utterly disgusting, especially in his very early days at the club... he was a phenomenal talent and we chose to sideline him almost immediately upon joining, even though he was ripping shit apart for Borough and he only started to get a shout when injuries piled high...

To be honest I don't blame him for wanting to fuck off especially after finishing 17th twice, proving he is arguably one of the best attacking RB's in the league and off the back of a stella world cup, with all the previous in mind about how he was treated by the club.

 

[USspur]

Give Spence a loan to a high end team on the continent. Next year we will need two very good right backs as we will be champions of the prem and therefore champions league

Yeah, you're right, I mean successful clubs move useful players along, not just dead wood. And as Dave points out, he wants to go somewhere else. Put it this way: if the money's put elsewhere in the squad, then fair enough.

I guess it boils down to the fact that I think he's better than Udogie and Robertson. And it's not ideal if Porro is injured, though I guess this means the second-string RB position is Gray's for the time being.

Lol, I don't think you I or Gray himself want him to be anywhere fucking near Fullback...

I know he is versatile, but if we fuck him around on the regular, he will have clubs all over the world after his services...

 

[SpursStone]

Less than 2 weeks till the start of the league and we are really lacking in the striker department.

That's who it would be, though. And you're right about the versatility--that's been a problem for a lot of young players over the years. Eric Dier under Poch, for example. One week he was in midfield, the next at CB, then on the right.

[USspur]

Terrible business here

 

[jaxdermot]

Terrible business here

seems very cheap.... especially in this transfer window, with some of the previous deals around the Leagues... not to.mention he's an International player and had a good World Cup... only good thing is Levy must be pulling his hair( singular) out

 

[SpursStone]

Terrible business here

Is it?

We moan when we don't move on players that are deemed surplus to requirements as the price is too high, we also moan when we move on those players if we perceive the price to be too low.

I don't think moving on Spence is a good move, however, I do think he felt the need to move... so £35m is decent money IMO if that's all anyone was willing to pay.

 

[BrooklynYid]

Dumbest club on earth. Now we have no backup RB. Could have sold him to a PL club at a premium but that would be smart. We'll hold on to Solanke though. Briliant.

Gray

Could have sold him to a PL club at a premium but that would be smart.

Selling him to a rival? Yeah that would be really smart

We'll hold on to Solanke though. Briliant.

So we should - although the attack needs bolstering

 

[BrooklynYid]

Gray

Gray is a midfielder, Liverpool are really not our rival, Solanke blows, and we sold Spence for way below his value. There is no pretty way to spin this.

It is. I am moaning because he isn't surplus to requirements and the price for him is too low.

£35m would be decent money for him but we didnt get that. We got €31.5m or £26.9m which is ass
