Eriksen will be a fool to sign a contract now. If I were him he'd wait till January to see if any of Bayern, Barca, RM, PSG are interested, if not wait till the summer to see how much money he can get out of City/Utd. Of all the stars at Tottenham, they're assured of getting a fee only for Kane, the rest are going to leave on a free.
 
Matt Law of the Telegraph reporting that Eriksen is waiting for Real Madrid, Juventus or Man United to make a bid for him.

As others have said our name no longer fits so well in that sentence.

That said would love Eriksen in the team :devil::devil:
 
Really don’t think one season out of the CL is going to influence prospective transfers as is often implied here. We only missed out because of an absolute implosion at the back end of the season. Almost wilfully threw it away. Somehow, don’t see that happening again from here on.

Pure arrogance. You've been in and out of the CL for years now, going through several different managers in the process .. but now you think you'll walk back in and it won't be an issue again? Just like that?

Nothing to suggest that at all, nor is there anything to suggest it's just one season outside the CL for United.

Oh and also the 'implosion at the end' excuse applies to every single club in the top six. All of Spurs, Chelsea, United and Arsenal imploded/threw it away.

What .. ?

Son has a contract till 2023. Alli has one till 2024.

Those our probably our two biggest 'stars' outside of Kane and Eriksen and they both have long contracts, they're going nowhere on a free.

Alli and Hugo to 2022. But hey I am sure they will all leave on a free :lol:.

Don't knock the implosion at the end, you scraped 4th by 1 point so it did you a favour. If you want to talk arrogance I think you might want to look in the mirror, trashing United on their own forum whilst supporting a club with no PL or CL titles.

Yes .. this is exactly what I just wrote. Everybody imploded at the end so 'we imploded that's the only reason you made it!' doesn't really work when every single top 4 contender did the exact fecking same.

And yeah, absolutely trashed United. Why are there suddenly so many babies posting on here who can't handle anything that is remotely critical of United? Grow a fecking backbone and stop crying, it's so damn tedious.

All I said was that the idea you'll walk in to the top 4 with no competition now was arrogant, which it is, and that you've struggled to do that for a while now .. which you have. I apologise if speaking the truth hurts you this much.

Aldeweireld, Vertonghen?
 
Aldeweireld, Vertonghen?

You said 'all the stars at Tottenham' and now it's Eriksen and a couple of ageing central defenders.

I very much doubt both of Toby/Vert will leave on frees anyway. Probably Toby but I wouldn't say he's one of our biggest stars anyway, he's not even the best central defender at the club as far as I'm concerned.

You read an awful lot into a couple of sentences. Not crying at all and nothing you can say on a message board is going to hurt me, child please. You talk about us as being arrogant, that is just slinging an insult not contributing supportable facts to a conversation. The fact that you seem to be unable to even have a civil discussion with your fellow Spurs fans on this board is evidence enough that you are contributing nothing and just acting like a typical troll. I won't feed the troll any further, feel free to respond however you like but I won't be engaging further.

:lol:

Also wtf are you talking about 'not contributing supportable facts to a conversation' ??? The man made baseless claims we've heard time and time before with nothing to back them up. 'Oh we're just going to waltz back in the top four now and it won't be an issue even though this hasn't been the case since fergie' isn't the foundation of any kind of reasonable argument. And if you're not hurt by words on a message board then stop exaggerating what was actually said with dumb words like 'trashed' when literally all I said was 'yeah you're being arrogant here this isn't an easy thing to achieve'.

I've had loads of civil conversations with most Spurs fans on this board, so the latter half of that is bollocks. I've also had plenty of disagreements because I don't merely go along with the popular consensus and I'm happy to disagree with people, which obviously some can't deal with. That's not trolling.
 
It's probably not going to hurt them that much even if Eriksen, Toby and Vertonghen leave. They'd need to find a replacement for Eriksen but Spurs do pretty well in the transfer market so I'm sure they'll figure it out. The only thing that's going to hurt them ATM is if Poch leaves. Players like Alli / Son look WC under him but I can see them struggling in other systems.
 
So hang on Tottenham a club who haven't won a league title in my life time, who haven't won a trophy at all in what 10+ years are now on equal footing to European Juggernauts and serial domestic winners Juventus, PSG and Bayern Munich?

:lol::lol::lol:

We're talking about here and now, not 10 years ago. And in the here-and-now, Spurs are wealthier than Juve, don't play in a back-water league like PSG (and have a better team) and have a team that's at least as good as that which Bayern Munich can field.

On top which we've recently reached the CL final, in the process knocking out the team that knocked out Juve. We also play in a far more competitive league than do any of those clubs.

Moreover, we have a stadium and a training centre that are as good as, if not better, than those offered by any of those clubs … not to mention a top manager.

So yes, these days moving from Spurs to any of those clubs is not a clear step up. Your problem is being stuck in the past and being unwilling to see or admit that Spurs are now one of the most desirable destinations for players.

Then we can expect to see Tottenham have a big finish to the transfer window, and take on City and Liverpool this season.
Looking forward to it, I don't want either of them winning the league again this year.

With all due respect feck off :lol:

Spurs like it or not are on level footing with someone like Dortmund. You're delusional as feck if you think Spurs are anywhere near comparative to the likes of Juve, Bayern and PSG.

Oh and just to elaborate the here and the now is that Juve are league champions, Bayern are league champions, PSG are league champions whereas Spurs lost 13 games and finished 3rd. For all Spurs so called wealth over Juve where were Spurs when Juve were spending over 100m on Ronaldo? Where were Spurs when Juve were spending over 60m on De Ligt? And as for having a better side than PSG again with all due respect feck off :lol:
 
Say Spurs are wealthier than Juve and then, claim United fans arrogant :lol:

The irony!
 
Easily in my opinion, I’d happily give him a 2 year extension, Toby is close but have loves Super Jan since he arrived. There is a reason he was loved at Ajax too.

Agree with him being your best CB.

But I think if he planned to sign an extension he would have done so by now. Both of them are going to test their markets in January. At that point, if Spurs has the best offer or an offer at least comparable to others, they'll probably sign an extension. If not, they will go elsewhere.

We've only finished top 4 twice in 6 years and we finished 7th in 2013 and 6th in 2019 with 800m spent, we had to win Europa to get a third entrance in the CL. We have an unknown quantity in Ole who had the best run for a new manager and then our worst run since the 1960s.

Pogba came here in 2016, three years after Fergie had left with Jose at the helm it was supposed to be project with a proven winner but it went to crap and we're back to square one. We have to show some stability and consistency.

Things could turn bad for Ole quite quickly if the results don't come early on. The signing of Bissaka and others coming and some staying should give Ole a better chance.
 
I just love the picking of singular elements as to why Spurs are level with these other clubs

Level with Juve because they have more money
They don't have more money than PSG but they're still level because they play in a better league
Level with Bayern because apparently they have a comparable starting XI

We activated the extra year on Jans contract, he may want to leave for China or somewhere next season but he will will be 33 next year. I wouldn’t be surprised to see him go back to Ajax TBH.
 
I just love the picking of singular elements as to why Spurs are bigger than these other clubs

Bigger than Juve because they have more money
They don't have more money than PSG but they're still bigger because they play in a better league
Bigger than Bayern because apparently they have a comparable starting XI

I guess although Spurs don't have more money than United and don't have the playing in a better league argument they're still bigger than us because of the cheese room or some such shit

Why are you putting words in people’s mouths? You do this constantly, Juve is an Elite europeon team, they are a bigger club than us. I as simply pointing out a financial fact, United are also a bigger club than us... who is saying otherwise? I bet you say Glaston :lol:.

@charlenefan for PM, you could certainly spin Hunt and Boris under the table.

Celtic are also league champions.

Spurs are competitive with the teams you mention in terms of the quality of the squad right now and play in the biggest league in the world right now. If Spurs were to meet Juve or PSG right now I wouldn't say any team were clear favourites.

edit: I can see you're talking about financial power, and if so then yes they are currently a step above. However that could actually change if the current trend of the PL vs the other leagues continue.

Yes but we're not talking about who would come out on top in a single game are we, we're talking about whether or not Eriksen moving to a Juventus, Bayern or PSG is a sideways step in his career or not

Fair enough mate. Do you and the Spurs fans rate Davinson Sanchez? Reckon he'll make it as a long term centreback at your club after Vertonghen and Toby?

You could argue that leaving the PL for the italian, german and especially french league is a step down. And I personally don't think either of those teams are more likely than Spurs to perform in Europe. I wouldn't consider it a step up, but more of a sideways move although you'd almost be guaranteed a league title whereas that can't be said for Spurs.

Moving to a European heavyweight where league titles are almost guaranteed is a sideways step from leaving a 3rd/4th placed Spurs side...

Fecking hell its catching
 
Imagine genuinely thinking moving from Spurs to Bayern or Juve isn't a step forward for a player.

Juve or Bayern no his status would rise for sure with a genuine possibility of Europeon glory, I would find Germany an odd fit for him though. PSG yes he would win the league title and the cups and they are an elite club like it or not, but is it a challenge? Will he win the CL there? There is a reason Neymar wants out. That’s how I see it.

All you can do is laugh. Every club's supporters are a little delusional in their own way but this stuff takes the cake.

I know right

You have the prestige of playing in the classic black and white stripes of Juventus, always competitive in the UCL, always challenging for the league title (more often than not winning it) and living in Italy or you can play in England and finish 3rd or 4th with Spurs. No contest ain't it :wenger:
 
What are the chances of Christian Eriksen signing for United before the current window shuts?

I mean, of all the world-class attacking mids scattered around Europe, I can think of no one I'd rather have playing for our club more than this guy.

And I don't care his playstyle is not too dissimilar to our very own Paul Pogba :)
 
Eh have you actually checked the facts? Most Premiership clubs are more wealthy than big clubs around Europe now.
I didn't say anything about other clubs. I specifically said about Juve. Except for oil clubs, they have one of the richest owners who will blow almost every club in epl. Don't get deceived by their penny pinching of transfers.
