    Check out Romano’s twitter feed you can now see the dam has been broken in the transfer window. Lots of loan deals still happening but lots of transfers now going through as the lig jam broken. Loved this snippet about Spurs and Nahitan Nandez because it makes me feel proud that Orta will not spend ctoo much cash on what he thinks a players valuation is.

    Equally, he could have just had the season of his life, Bielsa calls it a day at the end of the year and everyone on here is moaning on here about why we put him on such a long contract <whistle>

    Fantastic news about Bamford's contract.

    Best bit of business we've done this summer.

    Yes I know that doc but in those 15 years Spurs have played in Europe a good few of them, I don't see them winning the league but they have more chance of qualifying for Europe over the next 5 years than we do as it stands, if we'd have got 3 or 4 quality signings in, that may be different but we haven't, so back to my original point, does Bamford know something about our planned recruitment which has help persuaded him to put pen to paper.

    Orta and Bielsa have sold new recruits a project and I cannot see the project being derailed, but I can see it slowed down due to overpriced players. But on the Spurs front they haven't won the league as we did or European Cup like we did. Yes they won cups but the big stuff was before we did. THe way Levy is performing he isnt going to win anything anytime soon unless he spends and sells but being a greedy cnut he cant help himself.

    Much work goes into selling the club and the priject and potential players are given presentations about the plans and videos which are edited showing the player “lifted” and placed into a Leeds game.mit shows that players movement almost exactly to the way Leeds are attacking/defending its almost like swapping his head for say Klichs head. Its clever and demonstrates what Bielsa wants him to do which is exactly what he has been doing in his present club. So loads of work anylising data and making sure the player has the mentality etc for working with Bielsas fitness and would fit into the dressing room. If we havent bought anyone yet its because of inflated prices and greed and I reckon we are waiting or the death because many clubs need to sell

    Yeah those Evertonians are really dirty players and not to be trusted, they even got Liverpool delisted as a world heritage site due to their proposed new garish stadium.
