Yeah he's got her up the duff twice but won't commit which is interesting as he's keeping his options open, London could be fun for him.

 

I'd do the same, playas gonna play.

Commit to what ?

[Jaqen]

Players going to zoos is one thing but Eddie won't stand for signing players who have kids out of wedlock I'm sure of that. 

[Hanshithispantz]

Keeping his options open? 

 

I think he's already tied in like, given the two kids and living together situation.

Bastard kids !! Erh nar, we are trying to sportswash here, we don't need that sort of heat. The Daily Mail will have a field day.

Im pretty sure most of the Spurs players live in Essex/Hertfordshire rather than London anyway.

Depends how much they like being robbed at knife point.

Lads, it's not 1924 anymore.  Couples can have kids without being married and 'That London' isn't an unending combination of Sodom, Gomorrah and a 90s Ibiza club bathroom

Haddaway, man. Have you not seen Our Friends in the North? 

[Kid Icarus]

Always find it mad how people think signing a piece of paper with someone that can be undone without giving any reason is a commitment, but the shared, lifelong responsibility of having children with someone isn't on its own  Indoctrination has loads to answer for.

Doesn't sound like we're going to make a move. Either we're not interested or he's made it clear he wants the Spurs move.

[Kid Icarus]

Very ambivalent about this one now tbh. Would have been good to get him, but if it means getting Szoboszlai then so be it.

Shame as he’s a brilliant player and would have been ideal for us in terms of creativity. However I do feel his injury record would have made it a massive risk considering the intensity at which we play.

[Max Cherry]

Enjoy playing with Hojbjerg and Skipp Madders! 

[SUPERTOON]

Rumours he’s agreed personal terms with them at around 195k per week. Not sure how true mind but that’s a lot more than he’s worth imo.

If true no wonder he’s so keen on going to spurs

 

No chance we are giving him that.  

[Shearergol]

Shame, but confident we’ll find an alternative quickly enough

[gazza ladra]

Soured on Maddison over the course of last season. No fight in either him or Tielemans. Maddison will fit right in at Spurs.

I thought it was 175 but aye either way we aren’t paying him that. Spurs probably need him as a signing more than we Do but I’d have been happy with him as a signing too. Equally I’m not that

bothered if we don’t sign him really.

I really like him as a player and i would have been delighted if we signed him, but i was never quite sure how he would fit into our setup.  

[JP]

Says a lot about him if he goes to Spurs. Time will tell if its the right move but we're building something special with/without him.

 

[Guest]

If we sign better then I'm happy enough with this.

Yeah people seem to think London is just about Oxford Street and Pall Mall. But outside of the main city centre there are some stunning landscapes, those two areas you mentioned are a good example.

 

I don't know why Maddison has a hard on for London, but maybe his reasons are family related. Anyway, good luck to him, I would still be more excited by signing Szoboszlai. Although there's nothing concrete about that one either tbf.

And also happy if not Szoboszlai for our team to identify someone I've never heard of and be confident they'll move us forward.

[Matt1892]

The talk of him preferring a move to London isn’t a new thing so hopefully we haven’t been wasting much time with it during the summer.

 

I liked the idea of signing him and Szoboszlai rotating between midfield and wide right like Joelinton and Willock do on the left, that idea went out of the window due to us preferring Tonali so hopefully any new wide right play now can also cover up top.
