    Send us Fan Mail ⚽ **Tottenham fans, can you relate?**  After years of waiting, Tottenham is finally making moves in the transfer market, and it feels surreal!  🔥 **Tag a fellow Spurs supporter who needs to hear this!**  We’ve seen the club struggle with transfers in the past, often waiting until the last minute, but this time feels different.  The signing of Van Henk is exciting, and for the first time in ages, there’s a glimmer of hope with an actual bid for Tonali!  But the big question remains: will we attract top talent without European football?  As Arsenal fans have learned from us, investing in the right players is crucial for success.  What are your thoughts on Tottenham’s new strategy? Are we finally turning a corner?  Maybe this is the start of something special for Spurs!  **Let’s discuss! 👇**  Also we discuss the great players we've seen so far in this exciting World Cup, including the mercurial and magical Messi, the brilliant Mbappe, the prolific Harland, as well as our very own World Class players Bellingham and Kane.  In addition we discuss the England Croatia game and the upcoming England Ghana Game.  And finally we  discuss who we feel is going to win the golden boot.  ---  Full episode link in bio!  #TottenhamHotspur #Spurs #FootballTalk #TransferNews #PremierLeague Support the show
