The Deadline Day ITK Discussion Thread - 1st September

[PaulThurston]

So what deals aren't dead? Whose window is closed?

German and Italian windows closed?
Spain, France and Holland still open?

I think only Germany and Italy finish early (5 & 7) but the others finish at 11 CET so 10:00 BST.

 

[Jay.]

Not enough permanent outgoing so far unfortunately.
Players have it too easy at spurs. World class facilities, top wages, london based…. Too easy to just sit out your contract and coast. Also good reflection of the crap mentality that’s cost us dearly recently. Lazy, greedy, no ambition

Only outgoings to Germany and Italy are dead. We can still buy from there. Likewise to every market that'll close before the English one.

 

[Trix]

I mean i think we all accept that we are 99% done this window….but im holding out against hope that something happens

I mean I'd put it in the slim chance category. Last update I had was that we were still talking re various deals but everything was looking unlikely. Still time though and we do need a CB.

 

[Ginmela]

Reckon they're holding out in announcing BJ until they're sure we can't announce anyone else?

 

[Crow]

Maybe Bottla-Ketchup could be used at the last minute to try and spice up the taste of this rather bland transfer window

They can all still sell though.

Hoping they will announce BJ before going home!

 

[cjsimba]

You just KNOW that one of Romero or VDV gets a serious injury tomorrow.

Like I’d genuinely be surprised if that didn’t happen. It’s just very Spurs.

 

[13VanDerBale13]

The question is why a 'desparation buy'?

There's literally no excuse.

They’ll always be one mate

 

[WiganSpur]

Feels like Ally has been briefed a that's all folks here

 

[Trix]

Could be that. With the fact we still want players out though I'd imagine we are still trying to push that at least.

 

[For the love of Spurs]

I know I'm trolling a bit tonight but there is still 3 hours left and usually by this point everyone has fucked off home(they haven't yet). Personally I've not been told we are finished as yet.

its odd given the situation if we do get a back up Centre Back I would say ok not perfect but ok, we have enough. If we don’t yet AGAIN we have left a hole and undermined our own team.

 

[LukaKranjcar]

Thats all folks

To save everyone a click:

State of play​

Right, here's what we know ahead of the final three hours!

• Brennan Johnson's move from Nottingham Forest is almost done. He's been at Hotspur Way ahead of his transfer.
• A late deal for Conor Gallagher now seems unlikely at this point.
• Atletico Madrid now seem to be the only club interested in Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, with his future playing a part in Spurs' midfield plan. The La Liga side are not matching Spurs' valuation.
• Lloyd Kelly looks difficult to complete. Bournemouth are reluctant to sell the defender.
• No late interest in Eric Dier, Hugo Lloris or Tanguy Ndombele.

Yeah totally I still believe if we get a late move for Dier or big Dav something could still happen with a CB. 3 hours and we will know for sure.

 

[Stoof]

Read A&C’s post please. You’ve got three hours and then you can let rip.

 

[Derryank]

That's that then. The unofficial club media reporter..... disappointing we haven't gotten a back up CB as we certainly had the funds to do so.

It's the weekly wage balance sheet that cost Ange what he was brought here to do.

Is this the point where we try and pay off Lloris and Dier to free space up for an incoming.
