st albans fox Posted 26 January 2020 Posted 26 January 2020 If he doesn’t want CL football next season then he isn’t ambitious enough for us!
Stephen Hughes Posted 26 January 2020 Posted 26 January 2020 Ahh good signing for spurs if they get him

mabrah Posted 26 January 2020 Posted 26 January 2020 I can't feel disappointed about not signing someone I knew nothing about so could someone tell me how to respond please?
StriderHiryu Posted 26 January 2020 Posted 26 January 2020 Spurs!? That seems strange because they already have Son, Lamela, Lucas Moura who are similar types of players and if anything they need a true striker with Kane out injured. I suppose they could put Son up front and bring in Bergwijn in his place? Still I find that quite a weird one. Chelsea I could believe as they have Pedro and Willian who are both the wrong side of 30, but Spurs seems like a bit of a weird fit. He doesn't replace Eriksen either who is the one departing. If he is going there I hope we've at least put a bid in for him. Spurs are the one club from the traditional top 6 who we can probably match wages with.
Pliskin Posted 26 January 2020 Posted 26 January 2020 Spuds? Why would he want to go there, they’re shit.
StriderHiryu Posted 26 January 2020 Posted 26 January 2020 Can someone say bidding war? Here is footage of the PSV chairman right now, knowing a host of Premier League clubs are after one of his players:
StriderHiryu Posted 26 January 2020 Posted 26 January 2020 Now saying two bids have been accepted, so I reckon we are in the race. Sadly I don't think we will get him!

Yeah it will be somewhat depressing if we've been gazumped after being in a cup semi final, odds on for Champions League football and playing sexy football and we still can't get him! I think we've been trying to do the deal quietly, but someone from PSV has (understandably) informed other clubs and Spurs have acted on it. Ah well there are other targets and this player is far from guaranteed to be good, but he looks promising. One thing about signing a player now is that we could ease them in during the last part of the season so they are ready to make an impact at the start of next season. Could yet end up getting Hwang from Salzburg or someone similar, but that's Olmo and Bergwijn gone this window who would have been right up our street.
urban.spaceman Posted 26 January 2020 Posted 26 January 2020 My Dutch is a bit rusty but I'm pretty sure they're saying "Why the ****ing **** would he want to go to Tottenham Hotspur when they've only ever won two League Cups in his lifetime? He'd be better off at the King Power especially with their world class training facility about to open. **** Tottenham Hotspur."
st albans fox Posted 26 January 2020 Posted 26 January 2020 When he chooses spurs, I expect some of you will be dumbfounded why a young talented player would want to play for a bigger club in London with a spectacular stadium and a fantastic training facility .......

Maybe he saw us play against Man City and Liverpool ........then losing to Burnley clinched it for Mourinho ahead of Brendan !🙁

jeffschlupp Posted 26 January 2020 Posted 26 January 2020 https://www.theguardian.com/football/2020/jan/26/tottenham-psv-steven-bergwijn "Bergwijn’s agent is understood to be in England to explore a move for his client, with Leicester also interested in a player who is a strong candidate to start for the Netherlands at Euro 2020. Bergwijn was a target for Sevilla last summer but he stayed put and signed a new contract, which runs until 2023."
justfoxes Posted 26 January 2020 Posted 26 January 2020 It’s always been whoever we’re interested in you’ll always find Spurs or Arsenal sniffing around too a bit alike Tielemans etc we do the scouting they come and bully their way in didn’t week for Youri but we’ve lost a couple of targets in the past to them !!
mozartfox Posted 26 January 2020 Posted 26 January 2020 The fact he worked at the Heineken Bottling Plant before turning pro, suggests he may prefer Spuds?

I'm pretty sure spurs, arsenal and most top half premier League will have had a good look at bergwijn. He's not some Riyad Mahrez unknown gem playing the French 2nd divison. He's currently Holland's main man.
