Ok, Spurs want Ndiaye. It’s £80 million plus Richy comes home.

If it's true it will be a backwards step yet again.

For who, Skylark? Ndiaye or the club? If you're using this situation to bash the club, then that's a bit stupid. If the player wants out, then would you keep him? If he goes, then the club just needs to get a fair valuation for him, whether he moves to another prem team or abroad.
If they sell him for 30m, then you would be right, but that isn't going to happen.

Reading without me glasses so apologies, Skylark, if you meant bringing Rucharlison back home. Although, even you have to admit, he's better than the two we have up top just now. Getting someone in that can actually score a decent amount of goals is what we all want isn't it? Any player that improves the team would be a positive move.
03 Aug 2026 20:06:58
Surely Ndiaye wouldn’t move to Spurs.

{Ed025's Note - that would depend on the fee and the financial package i expect GB..

Yeah Ed I know mate but Spurs, if he moves he can do far better than that lot

{Ed025's Note - he who pays the piper calls the tune GB, its all down to money in the end mate..

Wouldn't be a bad move imo, GB.
He is almost guaranteed to play, whereas moving to the likes of Arsenal, City or United would take a lot of minutes off of him.
Spurs have a clear plan in place and have recruited very smartly, mate.
They only need a striker and winger to have a very good first 11, with no European fixtures to contend with.
Kinsky/Dubravka
Porro/Spence
Senesi/VDV
Van Hecke/Danso
Robertson/Udogie
Fernandes/Bentancur/Gray
Tonali/Gallagher/Sarr
Kudus/Ndiaye
Kulisevski/Maddison
Tel/Simons
Richarlison/Solanke
They will offer him stupid money, and they have a much better side and manager than us. That is just the unfortunate reality, mate.

{Ed025's Note - it could also be a carrot for Richie coming to us plus cash BN..

03 Aug 2026 21:15:10
That is more than a fair shout Ed and I would take full advantage of getting that money back that they shafted us for on the Richy deal because we were desperate.
I would be asking for £65m plus Richy Ed. See how much they really want him ey!

{Ed025's Note - i suspect it will not be that much BN..

03 Aug 2026 21:41:19
40 tops and Richie. Spuds will get the better deal unless we get Yilmaz, that would do for me.
03 Aug 2026 18:47:55
Mad to think as Prem is about to start that Moyes is 4th longest in position of all the Prem bosses just behind Hertzeler Emery and Arteta.
03 Aug 2026 18:28:59
Maybe it's just me but I remember watching Anzou as our RB last pre season and he looked a real attacking threat. Similar, imo this season.
After, a full year at our club, if he doesn't defend or track back as DM wants, surely that's down to our coaching team or DM himself.
I like the look of the lad from little I've seen, fellow blue boys' opinions?
0
03 Aug 2026 20:14:17
Sadly I think our back four will be JoB, Tarks, JB and Myko for the start of the season.

Don't remember him as RB.

03 Aug 2026 21:43:34
Think a fit JB would allow our L/B to get forward a lot more.
03 Aug 2026 13:47:51
I am glad John Stones got some other offers and is off to Italy. Means our lazy scouts have to earn their money and find decent young talent instead of older ex players or Rx utd city players looking for one last pay day.

03 Aug 2026 15:55:17
Where do you get they are lazy mate
1
03 Aug 2026 16:14:39
I'm not sure they are lazy; just crap.
If he wasn't on stupid wages, I'd have thought he was a decent squad player, as he can cover several positions. Could also have retired at us and possibly take up a coaching role after.
The lad has worked with some top managers and has decent experience. Could have been useful.
However, if he was on extortionate wages, it would be a waste as we could utilise the money on several players. Especially if we get Grealish back.

Well there's a thing Dino agrees.

03 Aug 2026 16:57:28
Please tell me who actually came out and said we were after him in the first place
1
03 Aug 2026 18:19:46
I'll agree with this, mate. Moyes is the manager for 1 more season, and as a supporter you have to back him and hope we do well. Any new players that come in, regardless of where they came from, again, come the 22nd August, I will be there cheering them on, but after a few games, if it's the same crap as always, then I won't be happy, and I think I am entitled not to be.
I just think we could do much better in the transfer market.
0
03 Aug 2026 19:19:24
I agree, Dino, I want to see the Team we get this season, then decide; if we are rubbish, he goes. But hey, we have a good Team starting to be assembled, a mixture of experience and youth. I think you will be pleasantly surprised. Hope so anyway, mate.

03 Aug 2026 20:15:58
Need a striker GB can't go through next season with them 2 cowboys up front it's a must that we find one and he needs to be good.Can have a decent team but if you don't score goals it's mid table again.You never know as ed said let's wait and see never know this time 2 weeks we might have signed one and we all be buzzing.

03 Aug 2026 21:48:27
Can we stop wanting past players to be coaches please.
03 Aug 2026 08:05:10
Ok so as it's silly season here's my hopeful formation based on how the manager likes to line them up.
Pickford
Johnston-O'Brien-Branthwaite-Aznou
Rohl-Norgaard-Hackney-Kdh-Garner
Ndiaye
Delap (come on you know it's going to be) .
Would love us to get Yilmaz if we had to let Ndiaye go but would put him out wide right and move Garner up the park where he would be more involved in an attacking sense.
Have I got the job? 🙂

03 Aug 2026 08:52:32
Yilmaz going to be our striker or winger am not sure he looks that good and Turkish players never do well in England look at Tousan.Why can't we make a bid for someone decent someone like sarr at least try and get someone good
0
03 Aug 2026 09:41:05
Because we are crap. Have flirted with relegation for years and have no chance of European football for the foreseeable. And we play boring negative football. If you are a footballer who is half decent and ambitious, would you sign for us?
2
03 Aug 2026 09:52:14
Hope they let us start with 12 players BB.
3
03 Aug 2026 10:46:49
Brassington, not being picky but your team has 12 or is that to balance the VAR anti toffee agenda. 😂
2
03 Aug 2026 11:56:57
I would have hoped DM would have played JoB and JB together in preseason as preparation, but he hasn't, so I doubt we'll see that pairing any time soon. : (

"Turkish players never do well in England".
Tugay would have something to say about that.

Hey Big Reg, I've just gone and put Everton to beat Crystal Palace 2-0 in our opening game on Super 6 and now you have spoilt it, mate. 😂😂😂😂

03 Aug 2026 15:42:21
Are you for real, Dino, saying Turkish players never make it in England?
1
03 Aug 2026 15:54:35
Ah, you spotted my deliberate mistake, boys. Just a bit thick, lads, maybe getting a bit excited because we are actually signing some decent midfielders. Now about the two right backs..
0
03 Aug 2026 16:16:18
I'd take 12 players on the pitch. Surely we couldn't fit them all in our own half the whole game!
0
03 Aug 2026 16:32:37
Sorry, Brassington, but it's going to be a while before Garner is back on the pitch in any position.
0
03 Aug 2026 17:35:24
Yes, am serious. Name me 3 top class Turkish players that have made it in England. I can't think of 1, never mind 3, but you seem to believe I am wrong, so name 3.

03 Aug 2026 18:15:22
You're going to have to wait on news now naming some.

03 Aug 2026 18:41:21
Tugay was class, and wasn't Muzzy Izzet Turkish? He was decent for Leicester.
03 Aug 2026 07:24:31
Why is everyone obsessed by stats? Surely it depends on what team you play for and what league you’re in. I mean, a player playing for, say, Celtic, could have great stats. But they are the best team playing in a crap league. So that doesn’t mean he will perform to the same level in an average team in the better league.
For example, Patterson had great stats while at Rangers, but has struggled ever since joining us.
We all watch players every week home and away, and we make our minds up about how good or bad they are based on what we see. I would like to think the club are doing the same, and not just basing it on bloody stats.

03 Aug 2026 08:49:57
I think the club go like this when looking for transfer targets. Eeny meeny miny moe catch a player by the toe.
Well, it does feel like that.

{Ed025's Note - I dont think its that sophisticated Dino..

03 Aug 2026 10:33:31
Patterson only played a few games for Rangers before we signed him. He was never getting a game as James Tavernier was the rightback and captain. Think he played more for Scotland than Rangers.
0
03 Aug 2026 10:42:02
You've basically described every team in the majority of the leagues worldwide, mate. The game has been stats driven for many years now and that is unlikely to change anytime soon. You see the GPS vests the players wear in preseason, clubs have their own analysts to provide data on all aspects of the game.
It's not just us.
Patterson wasn't really in the first team picture at Rangers and, I think, only played a few games for them.
0
03 Aug 2026 12:49:39
Spot on, Loyalist.
Patterson played a whopping 13 games for Rangers before we signed him with 1 assist.

Van Dyke was at Celtic & when we were looking for a new CB, who did we sign, Funnes Mori. Both the same price & we picked the donkey..again.
0
03 Aug 2026 15:55:55
Or Van Dick just ended up at a better team.
02 Aug 2026 18:49:27
I would be interested to hear other people’s thoughts, but from what I’ve seen, Rőhl and Aznou appear to have been Everton’s two best players during pre-season.
0
02 Aug 2026 19:59:48
From watch I've watched, Rohl has been very energetic and covered a lot of ground. He's not a RB but could be with more work. I would like to see him as an 8 or develop his crossing as a RW. He put in a good cross for Barry's no goal and tracked the ball well for his goal against Hamburg - he also dug it out his feet from a pass behind him to control it and put it in the net.
Aznou has been attacking when he's come on (though spent large parts of the Stoke game running towards our goal with the tactics of sideways or backwards) . I think he's a little naive defensively, but brings more attacking play than Myko.
KDH and Hackney have been solid.
Not set the world on fire but did their jobs mostly. Hackney was caught in possession against Hamburg, which led to a good chance they fluffed up.
George started well against Stoke, but his end product was lacking. Hope he gets more game time.
Graham made a decent cameo and Armstrong looks a good player. Graham's assist for the own goal saw him chase the ball down and whip the ball into a decent place. I doubt Beto would have gotten to it, but the defender did enough to turn it in. I think he looks a little lightweight and needs some time to bulk out or he might get bullied by opposition in Prem games.
