Kooiman Posted July 22, 2025 Share Posted July 22, 2025 If I can summon any silver lining right now it's that we have a manager who finds ways to work with what he's got in the basket. We absolutely need new faces, but 12 months ago we only had Will Osula to show for the summer window and he still managed to give us our best season in modern times. I hope that point isn't lost on the match-going fans. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted July 22, 2025 Share Posted July 22, 2025 We will bring another striker in this summer, imo. Two if the worst happens and Isak leaves. We simply have to. Even just having 3 (or 2.25 with Wilson's injuries and Howes reticence to play Osula) in the squad last year was arguable short. Going into the season with only 2 strikers would be suicidal. Priority wise a RCB next (that has pace) then CM/GK. Worst case, I could see us settling with our keepers again. Trying to squeak through in midfield keeping Hernes and maybe blooding Munda. Even limping through with our CB pool. We shouldn't bloody have to though. Depends who we can get off our books too. Targett, Willock, Lascelles, our 76 goalkeepers etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisMcQuillan Posted July 22, 2025 Share Posted July 22, 2025 God, I'd love to be such a prima donna. Imagine a recruiter phoned you up while you're working at your £100,000 a week job and asks if I would be interested in working somewhere else? I then walk out of the office because I am "unsettled by recent developments." Where do you go after that? Home? To try and settle? All of this rubbish is just endless, mindless waffle.

McCormick Posted July 22, 2025 Share Posted July 22, 2025 I think we’re way more likely to pay closer to 40m than Spurs are. Not sure about Nottingham though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if you were making 3k a month and another company offered you 15k to do the same job, but your current employer refused to let you leave? Would you be unsettled?

Which this would seem to indicate. Makes sense, at his age he probably believes this is his last shot at getting a move like this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joelinton7 Posted July 22, 2025 Share Posted July 22, 2025 (edited) Spurs still have to sort out the MGW tangle. Nip in there while they’re not looking. Would be a lovely signing. Clever player. Not highly rated but one of them that always damages you when you play against him. Edited July 22, 2025 by Joelinton7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
