Nothing baffles me more than when grown men Type ‘sp**s’ like seriously

Totally agree and now I suddenly have more understanding of 'Herc'-gate.

Also on Arse Mania:-

They have Champions League football at the moment, but he will be on loan this coming season, so there is no guarantee that they will be in the Champions League next season.

He isn't a top player, he is a prospect, and I am pretty sure we will have far more academy players playing this season than any of the other top 6 sides.

Also, Sp**s have a shiny new stadium, a manager who could leave at any moment, a Chairman that doesn't allow players to leave easily and vast history of winning absolutely nothing. Like I said, if that's what he wants to join, then he can join them. I'd be worried if we were losing out to a starting centre back that would improve our defence and make the starting eleven stronger. Missing out on Saliba, although it will be annoying, you have to put it in perspective.

He is not ready to start now, he won't be next season, he will make errors, he will cost us games he will give away goals in the course of his development.

Losing your **** over this means you have no hope in the next 5 years. There is also a massive chance that he actually chooses us. I am keeping calm till further news.

Maybe we had to wait for some sort of movement with Toby first before we could do something here?

Ties in with what Herc said a while back:

The Toby situation is very interesting, because we want him shifted, and if he goes we will bring in.

There was definitely another Herc ITK post where he said that if a CB or RB left, we'd replace, but only if they left first. Can't seem to find the quote/link though.

I for one am looking forward to winning something. As invalid and irrelevant an insult as it is, "muhhhhh but you haven't won anything" is literally all they've got.

Even so, you can now almost taste the salty tears as they type that stuff out these days.

Absolutely. They know they're free falling and we're getting better and better. For a lot of them, all they've ever known is taking the piss out of Tottenham (because let's be honest, it was justified back in the day). They don't know what to do with themselves now the tables have turned. It's wonderful. Even moreso if we're beating them to signings now as well.

Almost too funny and too good to be true.

So did I get this right, Arse's deal opted for a loan-back but we are pushing for a direct transfer?

No one knows for sure

Reports are that we've offered more (over the asking price) but that's about it
