    ***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v The Garibaldis (will Marinakis eat his own club with a cuppa?), Sat Sept 5th, City Ground, 3pm***

    Don't think Forest is going to come at us (like Brentford did), my understanding is they will sit in a bit more. If we are going to have the ball, Gallagher is useless (his skill is without the ball)

    Mathys Tel

    Not going to pretend I watched a bunch of Bayern games with a focus on Tel, 3 years ago. That said, his numbers at 17/18 playing for the best team, in a top league (12 in 52 in the league, as a non-regular starter teenager? 16 in 69 in all comps) are good, as well as some of stats around his...

    Mathys Tel

    Not arguing for Tel (I think he's in last chance mode with us right now), but 19 year old Tel at Bayern showed something. Now is it the regression young talented players show before pushing on, or was it just a moment (like it is for so many young players)? don't know. I just wouldn't say he's...

    Zero chance he starts, would be huge bonus if on bench

    Mykhailo Mudryk

    Not trying to be a dingdong, but Mudryk would need to score 135 goals in the next 5 years to match Timo Werner's output. Players don't suddenly fix bad football intelligence or poor decision making at 25 Our best hope is this guy can hold his own as cover, and that's after the 2-3 months he will...

    No, just think RDZ isn't planning to leverage any academy players (really) this season.

    The Right Back thread

    We have a real CB coming through (Hardy), yet we chose to go with Tosin, so don't see a academy option getting FB minutes

    a year or two ago, I thought he was a good option

    Which of these will have the most positive impact?

    Deki by a country mile. People forget the player he was, he and Bentancur carried that Conte side to CL spot. With players like Kudus/Savio/Marmoush to occupy defenders, and Fernandes/Tonali behind, he could be a monster. Yes, the injury is an unknown, but even at 75%, he'll make an impact -...

    26/27 Season Predictions

    Injuries will determine the season - Keep Savio, Fernandes, Marmoush, Udogie, VDV fit - Get back Kudus, Maddison, Deki Will be difference between mid-table and Europe. If we are not in top half by December (or worse, even lower), the pressure on RDZ is going to be immense. His fate will also...

    Not arguing, my point was, on paper, the defense is weaker, midfield and wide stronger. As a unit, to be seen.

    Transfer thread

    Was working off Ali Gold's numbers (he went through the 54 transactions) Assuming the graphic is the purely committed, meaning no add ons are hit, if add ons/obligations are hit, it gets to 264M. While I suspect the answer is somewhere in the middle, it also doesn't seem to account for loan...

    Transfer thread

    According to Ali Gold, it's 344M out, up to 264M in (depends on add ons), the only way I'm seeing it hit 150M is if we buy Mudryk for 75M, which I cannot see happening, and isn't an obligation anyway.

    Transfer thread

    As a unit perhaps, individually no question for me, weaker - Romero is a better player than JPVH - Danso is a better backup than Tosin - Spence is a better FB than Gray - Vicario is still more proven than Kinsky - Add in the obvious gap in aerial ability and physicality. RDZ cut down the goals...

    Mykhailo Mudryk

    Think the point was Savio is levels above Mudryk. People point to Savio's "lack of goals", he actually has more career goals than Mudryk despite being 4 years younger, and his goals came in a top European league, not Ukraine. We will see with Mudryk, but at this point, he's nowhere near the...

    Transfer thread

    54 in and out is crazy work - I'd say we have upgraded our midfield and wide areas - Defense is arguably weaker, GK to be seen. We have culled the squad and pushed on a lot of players. Still think the next two windows will have a lot of work - RB light - 10 position if Maddison/Xavi/Deki...

    We have spent more net spend the last 3 windows than this (our net spend is actually close to 100M this time)
