Transfer discussion thread

[NUFC Tiger]

Apparently we're close to signing Mikel Merino from Dortmund - initially assumed it was a loan but some of the more reliable Toon journos are reporting it could be a permanent deal as he's supposedly unsettled.

Signing anyone from Dortmund would be a bit of a coup though this young lad seems to be highly thought of - anyone know much about him? Apparently a Spain U21 international, ball playing defensive mid?

Do you mean meteoric? If so, it isn't really that surprising, Spurs for the most part recently have been around the top 4, they need to take the final step, twice now in recent seasons they really should have won it all.

At the end of the day success is measured in trophies and titles, not for almost doing it.

No, I meant metronomic. Look it up.

And the very fact you say Spurs "should have won it all" proves my point better than anything else I could write.

Spending is obscene. We all know it. Anyone trying to blame Levy (or any other non oil billionaire) for that state of affairs is just deflecting the rightful sense of shame they feel for their clubs whoring

It refers to Spurs slow but metronomic passage from mid table irrelevance to going past Liverpool, then United, then City, then Arsenal...

Maybe it's this year that outspending us by the GDP of a medium sized nation state will be the difference. If so fair dues..

As long as it's not on the back of modern day slavery. That s**t stinks.

Yeah not sure metronomic means what you think it does..

Pretty sure it does.

They're saying Kia has met with officials from Barcelona in London. Incidentally he's also the agent for Paulinho who they are signing as depth in midfield. FWIW no meetings between Kia & Coutinho in the last couple of weeks.

Pretty sure it does.

Metronomic means a regular back and forth movement, it has no meaning of gradually moving upwards.

 

[Hawkforce]

Pretty sure it does.

The clue is in the unvaryingly regular manner in which Tottenham have gone past so called "bigger clubs"

Meteoric was the word he was looking for.

I think you may need to email the Oxford dictionary team so they can add your made up meaning to the word.

I suggested this but he refuted it.

 

[Zidane98]

There's nothing in any of the Coutinho stories until you hear it from his camp. You'd expect Kia would be meeting regularly with Coutinho if he wanted a move.

Pool reporting someone for tapping up that's rich

Looks like the grammar Nazi is required.....

No it was not. Spurs have been metronomic in their rise since ENIC took over. Nothing meteoric about it at all..

All of you need a deep breath and a quick glance at the definition pantskyle already provided.

And you need to read the s**t you post.

 

[Hawkforce]

Because it was wrong. You had already posted the correct definition of what I meant.

The confusion may have been between Spurs evolution since ENIC (metronomic) Vs Spurs since Poch (meteoric)

You should probably visit the brain store, mate.
