The Spurs Twitter Thread

Here we go again lets trot out the fucking excuses of working flat out behind the scenes and this could be great or we might get the players we where looking for oh and by the way we made a lot of money but it does not matter if we are weaker because we tried so hard in the last couple of hours of the transfer window we just ran out of time.

Fuck you Levy for once again wanting to bollocks about over the last few hours of the window just to feed your ego as a hard nosed wheeler dealer.

Now we go into this part of the season weaker and in my opinion with a manager who i think should not have got the job in the first place but having put him in you have basically hung him out to dry by not providing him with the proper tools to work with.

We have got rid of the creativity out of our team and also the goals that Rafa provides and not replaced them.

There is not a chance of us getting near the top six this season.

Cheers Mr Levy i hope your ego and you are very happy.

Decentish transfer window all things considered, quite an overhaul though and that along with new regime might make it difficult autumn.

Anyway, changes in squad:

GK:
Lloris in (Button was already on loan last season and thus no changes in outgoings so far regarding last seasons playing squad)

Defence:
King <-> Vertonghen
Bassong / Nelsen (half a season both last season) <-> Caulker
Rose/Corluka (half a season) <-> Naughton

Central midfield
Modric <-> Dembele, THudd (out for a season, now back)

Attacking midfield / flanks:
Pienaar (half a season) / Niko / Rafa <-> Siggy / Dempsey

Up front
Ade <-> Ade (no change regarding last season, but permanent move)
Pav / Saha (half a season both) <-> Kane

Unwanted deadwood on squad:
Dos Santos <-> Bentley, Jenas

Levy wants that Countdown clock started on his tenure.

Think times up.

Happened too many times now #bullshitter

 

[sam1972]

100% agree! Very similar players! Dlevy oing things on the cheap yet again!! Not the ambition of a top 4 club!

afc and mufc wanted these players

 

[Snarfalicious]

Our depth up front is terrifying.

 

[panoma]

So this window we basically just made a ton of money?

Modric vs Dembele - Downgrade
VdV vs Sig -Downgrade (Allthough Sig have lot of potential)
King vs Verts -Jury is out, but King was struggling last season
Dempsey vs Nico/Pav/Pienaar -Decent player, and can cover a few positions
Lloris vs Brad - Upgrade

Cleared the squad for lots of "deadwood"

-Cant help to feel very underwhelmed and im sure AVB feel let down to. Cept for Lloris none else can be called big upgrades.
As usual we have trimmed our wage bill and banked a lot of cash, same shit every window.

Who is the Ruela guy and are all the moutinho off stories born from him?

I have not seen any confirmation of his story apart from the comment by JJetset - but that is probably enough to confirm it. If true , I feel sorry for AVB.

Robin Bairner ‏@RBairner
OFFICIAL: #Lyon confirm the sale of Hugo #Lloris to #Spurs. Fee is €10m + up to €5m as a bonus. Really cheap signing for #THFC

 

[thinktank]

The original JJetset ‏@jetsetyid
Gutted about Mouts as it was done don't know full story yet? Rose and gds out. We are still working

Ok, from JJ's mouth then. Fuck football. Never gonna get involved in another window again.

I recommend rolling a joint and just sitting back at laughing as more and more toys get thrown out of the pram

Waaaaaaaaaay ahead of you dude!

I bet bale is blown away by our ambition

Decent enough squad to fight out 5th - 8th,
We can hope for better rather than expect it.
I hope I am proved a mug and we get top 4

Our depth up front is terrifying.

shirt no 9 and 10 still free.. dont want dempsey as no 10, hardly follows some of players we've had wearing the shirt... think we should give lloris them both he can be 109!

[ILS]

Apart from in the goalkeeping area we have managed to downgrade in pretty much every position from last year....Just waiting for us to sign Rasiak and it will complete my night!

#Lyon will also receive 20% of any profit #Spurs make by selling #Lloris on.
