    Ranieri ain't gonna go somewhere with absolutely no chance of winning the title ... man's a genius ... but he can't pull a genie out if there's no bottle in the first place ... and I'm sure I read somewhere that Spurs have no bottle <whistle>

    Does anyone else's team get linked with some bizzare random transfer stories or is it just Spurs?

    In the past 7 days alone:
    Ranieri will be our new gaffer
    Bale has agreed terms on a return
    We've beaten PSG to sign Sessegnon
    We're making a £100m double move for Milinkovic-Savic and Immobile
    We're making a £65m double move for Mawson and Bertrand
    I've probably missed one or two as well.

    We all do, now we are coming into full silly season after Sunday you'll probably be linked with a Martian. But in all honesty with a new stadium to finance the chances of your boy shelling out £300 million for the players you've listed are laughable.

    If it's an upgrade on a passed-it Dembele, I'd be all for it, tbh.

    Liverpool no doubt will probably be linked to all the remaining 26 Southampton players. :bandit:

    All teams have vague rumours but for some strange Spurs get weird vague ones

    Do you seriously think Spurs are a big enough club to attract an EPL Title winning manager?

    If they're planning to stick their hand in the barrel again, someone should tell them they've already had all the chocolate biscuits. Nothing in there now but a couple of soft Rich Tea and a mouldy Garibaldi.

    No mould grows on Gabbi - unless you mean that scraggy beard of his.

    That beard is ****, but it's the easiest way to tell him apart from his sister, unfortunately:

    I said it before, but I still think that Liverpool will be back to scrape the barrel at Saints.
    Bertrand's still a significant upgrade on Moreno and would be good competition for Robertson, for a start.

    **** knows what will happen this summer. Are Liverpool really ready to take the piss to that extent? Will Saints new owners allow them to? They paid through the nose for Van Dick-Head, would they be willing to do that for Bertrand?

    Most of our players aren't very good. I'd be sorry to see Bertie, Tadic or Gabbi go. No one will be fighting over the rest.

    Despite Spuds looking like they've cemented 3rd place which could change on the last day they have again spiralled from last seasons bridesmaids tag.

    1 or 2 places less is hardly a spiral or to use the correct term, a helix (3D spiral). i was expecting far worse this season, tbh. We improved in the CL and lost something in the PL. The squad needs an injection of new faces at the expense of players that have already been mentioned elsewhere; 5 in, 5 out wouldn't surprise me with 1 or 2 players promoted from the academy.

    What would you call a spiral? From 1st to 5th?
