Prosciutto?
It’s not a slow news day; it’s another no-news day.
Liverpool Football Club is reportedly looking to offer West Ham around £50 million for Mohammed Kudus, who, in turn, is allegedly willing to take a pay cut to finalise the deal.
Is it just me, or could this entire business be a piece of complete fiction that was instigated by an overzealous agent?
I don’t read Football.London, just as I don’t drink water from a toilet bowl, but one keen-eyed reader shared this from a recent Gold My Beer submission.
Frank has already met James Maddison but will also want to have a proper chat with Spurs' other vice-captain, while goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario will be another key figure for the Dane to get on his side early on.
So, our hero, the cross-eyed flapper who has let in an eye-watering number of goals since arriving in N17, needs Thomas Frank to endear himself to him?
The sooner this streak of Prosciutto is put in his place and stops getting treated as a visiting dignitary, the better.
I complain about the infantilisation of football journalism, and this is a world-beating example.
One of many pertinent questions that should be thrown at Spurs is , How come so much transfer debt has been allowed to build up and seemingly due all to be paid around the same date . Why weren’t any players shipped out to cover this eventuality..
Is it a) Because amortisation of bang average players is worth more in tax breaks than selling the player on . Or is it
b) So many purchases made by THFC are worth so much less than when purchased that the Chmn and the board would rather sit buttocks clenched pretending none of it is happening.
Could it be c) such is the aversion to sustained success at Tottenham that this is all choreographed to fit in with the 4 Towers of the Apocalypse rising from the grave of what once was a highly regarded football club. ( With no inward investment, shareholders would have to be informed , and the club SOooooo in debt Daniel 🤫 where is the money coming from for the 4 towers to be completed by 2028 ? ).
Eze,Mbueno,Kudus,a decent goalkeeper,a top class number 6,nobody but nobody is coming to Levyland.
