@COYSpurs2023 I'm clinging to the hope that they're under contract, but I may be delusional!

@BrianHaining Worrying thing is Brian, if we go down, which is looking more likely as the weeks go by, we don’t keep Vuskovic. He’s hot property and has no loyalty to us at all yet.
Then he would be followed by Gray, Bergvall, Tel, Udogie
The club would entertain offers not refuse them

In 1986 at Wembley, England faced Scotland in the Rous Cup.
Goals from Terry Butcher and Glenn Hoddle gave #England a 2-1 win and the trophy.

@LikeAnsi I've always rated Bentancur. Very professional, tidy in possession, press resistant, and can really play. I think we've missed him. Without Frank's negative system, I think he can be far more progressive in possession
English

@Mastrigt_ He was v good today. Always looking to make a difference
English

@simonyemane Always available for the ball and always looking to make something happen. Superb
English

@Daily_Hotspur @DiMarzio Probably played his last match for us. That's a big blow for the rest of our season

🚨 JUST IN from @DiMarzio:
#thfc goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario will undergo hernia surgery at the start of next week which is likely to prematurely end his season. m.gianlucadimarzio.com/news-calcio/st…

@tonimason2502 Great photo, Toni. I loved watching him, especially in his early days at the club
English


@brnurse I was excited when he joined. However, his safety first football was shockingly ineffectual and dull to watch
English

@xAlexTHFC I can only think it was because he used the palm of his hand as opposed to his fist? I certainly thought it justified a red
English

How was this not a red? 🤣
Genuinely has felt like we’ve been refereed differently all season

@TalkTHFC__ Yep. I love the way he is so forward-thinking in possession. Brave and always looking to hurt the opposition. I really don't understand why our managers have been reluctant to play him?
English

Proud to have always been a Tel backer.

Investing my stocks in Tel to explode this season. Just wait and see, this is his breakthrough season. ⭐️

@TottenhamTiers I think Bergvall is a big upgrade on Sarr in terms of quality on the ball and creativity, so a Gray and Bergvall midfield will be a good combo. Gray was the sharpest I've seen him tonight and much more positive in possession
English

What a player btw.
20 y/o and pulling out performances like that in the Champions League. Definitely someone who can come out of this season proud.
#Tottenham must do everything possible to keep their hands on Archie Gray 💫

Good result for Chelsea: club fined only £10m and given a suspended transfer ban after Premier League found 36 separate undisclosed payments totalling £47.5m made “to 12 persons or entities on behalf of the club”. Lenient sanctions. No sporting sanctions. Yet these are serious offences, as the sanction agreement between the PL and Chelsea makes clear, stating “they were not only obvious and deliberate breaches of the rules but also because they involved deception and concealment in relation to financial matters”.
Yet no points deductions. Just a manageable (if record) fine and a “suspended one-year first-team player transfer ban (suspended for two years)”. Surely they gained a sporting advantage by recruiting such players? So surely a sporting sanction should be in order? And where's the consistency? In 2008, Luton Town received a 10-point deduction for irregularities in dealing with agents (nb from FA). There still could be some further sanctions by the FA following its "ongoing investigation".
PL points to mitigating factors: current owners Clearlake/Todd Boehly in May 2022 voluntarily self-reported potential historical breaches from the Roman Abramovich era. Club co-operated extensively and helped provide (with others) 10,000 documents for PL investigation.
PL established “that between 2011 and 2018, undisclosed payments by third parties associated with the club were made to players, unregistered agents and other third parties”. Payments related to the purchases of players including Eden Hazard, Willian, Samuel Eto’o, David Luiz, Andre Schurrle and Nemanja Matic - there is no suggestion any were aware of the illicit payments.
The detailed work of the investigators – and level of Clearlake’s co-operation – is impressive. The sanctions less so. It is a legitimate debate: should a club be punished for offences under a previous owner? Yes, most fans of other clubs would scream. It's a deterrent. And the value of those players' contribution and subsequent sales arguably still benefits the club.
PL also investigated “potential breaches of the Premier League’s Youth Development Rules, committed by a former senior employee, relating to the club’s registration of Academy players between 2019 and 2022”. Again, self-reported by the club, this time in 2025. Chelsea punished with £750,000 fine and immediate nine-month ban from registering academy players from PL and EFL clubs. #CFC

@BBCSport Yes, absolutely. They should forfeit all trophies won during that period, making Spurs Premier League champions in 2016/17👍
