It's Savio now. Do what he likes now, the cheque has cleared. It won't fucking last.

talk about misleading reports.



Charlton score in the 87th minute of the game at 5-0 down
The Beeb leads with:

"Savio scores on his debut as Spurs bounce back to beat Charlton". Blimey, they were five nil up, what did they bounce back from ? Last weekends loss ?
Beating a lower division team ?

btw, if reverting to Savio means he plays like the young fella in Spain. Well, so be it.

City are still in the money.

I'm hoping that if the Enzo F transfer does go through that he may end up being a bit of a Craig Bellemy. Didn't want him at the time but when he's on your side you start to love him.

Rumours Chelsea going for Scott from Bournemouth as a replacement. Id rather get him in as a squad player tbh. Although he's not an upgrade on Nico G! Still makes no sense letting him go to me at this stage.

Maresca and Viana will be creating a lot of pressure for themselves if they push for this Enzo F deal. If it doesn't work out it's a costly mistake to have to rectify and there is also already a hell of a lot of pressure on them to maintain our position at the top table.

Agree on Scott as rhe better fit. I can also relate to the Bellamy comparison though Ithink the Argie will be a mistake and cause us internal grief.

I agree with you as well SC, SCott seems pretty good at the "Argie-Bargie" role in midfield. Rather have him than a cheat like Enzo F.

Yeah, get a guy who missed 12 league games in 24 and 20 in 2025 and is injury-prone instead of a World Cup winner, big game player, because he is an argie. :lol:

We have a squad full of soft cunts, another one is what we are missing.

By big game player you mean the selfish cunt who got himself sent off leaving his mates to play extra time in a WC final with 10 men - yep, there's a true warrior for the cause.
I was not aware of Scott's injury record so thanks for that. We will agre to disagree on this, he's not for me. Unfortunately, he looks like he may be for us.

Zidane also left his mates to play in 10 men in a WC final.

We are not discussing Zizou as a potential inbound into our squad though are we?
Of course it happens with other players. Like I've said, he's not for me. I'd say he will cause us disruption and split the squad, just my view. He is the finished article though and Mase will be creaming his strides with the ink.

I don't understand. I read your second paragraph to say you'd rather get Scott as a squad player than Fernandez who will not be a squad player. Is that what it says? if it is, isn't the massive hole in midfield something that needs filling,?

Everton supposedly want Grealish again on loan.

If so they should be unceremoniously told to fuck off

Anderson, Bouadi and Cherki would be my first choice midfield 3. I wouldn't splash £130m on Enzo and would rather pay less for Scott as a squad player to get bodies in the squad as it would be less disruptive in my opinion.

I wasn't aware of Scott's poor injury record.

Id also be more inclined to spend big bucks on Wharton over Enzo as think he'd be happier to take his time to earn his spot in the team.
