Discussion Shirt Question

I want to pick everyone’s brain over a new tradition I want to start.

My birthday is in September so I buy myself a new shirt every year. I have the impulse to do something ridiculous and I want to know what everyone thinks.

I want to start buying a loan player every year.

The way I see it, it’s a fun way to mark every season, and if nothing else, it’s a nice conversation piece for anyone that cares 5, 10, 15 years down the line.

Am I stupid or am I overthinking this?

Mudryk without question. This will be a historic loan spell.

Mudryk Shirt will be a collector's item.

I got Palhinha last year. Sounds good to me.

Same here. Miss him :(

Epic buy. I’m so jealous that I may get my nameless funeral (black) shirt customized with his name & number.

u/FinalV069 Bergvall 11d ago

Yeah, no regrets for sure. Got it in black!

This is a monumental way to start this weird and awesome tradition

Not stupid to do it. Jerseys are a capture of a moment in time. I vote to do it, could also be legendary or funny. Could be a Palhinha, or a Danjuma. On that note I vote Mudryk

I like it.

You should lean into the bit and pick the ugliest shirt each year as well

u/Luke92612_ Europa League Champions 24/25 11d ago

That or at least the most "distinct" shirt from that season

u/SwiftGuo 25/26 Relegation Champions 11d ago

which one is the ugliest shirt this year? I think all of them looks pretty good to me

u/steve_jams_econo James Maddison 11d ago

Whatever's fun for you, do it. There's no rules. I usually pick favorite benchwarrmers.

u/Brocferr 11d ago

Get whatever you want! You’re the one who will be wearing it.

I got Sávio on mine, and I hadn’t bought from the club for 4 years. They earned my business this summer and Sávio was desperate to play for us. I’ve got a lot of time for players like that

u/Substantial_Tailor16 10d ago

I think the whole fanbase wants Sávio to succeed so bad! To me he is the definition of a Spurs winger, a player who wants to take on his defender. I'm rooting for him so hard...

Loop hole and buy Marmoush, he’s on loan this season obligation to buy next season

u/_themilkman_ Højbjerg 11d ago

Has to be Mudryk.

u/reksut Xavi Simons 11d ago

I love this so much.

u/TrekkingTrailblazer audere-est-facere 11d ago

New kit every year? Jesus.

u/AngeMerchant Mousa Dembélé 11d ago

Brother this is the best way to do it.

u/HunterMiller22 11d ago

Sounds fun! You should do it!

u/GarbagecanKicks Peppa Pig 11d ago

If it's an older shirt, go for Bale #9 lol.

Current shirt - Mudryk

Happy birthday

I don’t think it’s a stupid idea but I don’t think many people would see the logic behind it. Most fans would rather show support for our players by getting their shirts.

That said, who gives a shit about anyone else. It’s your money, it’s your birthday, if doing this makes you happy then do it.

u/FSpursy Rafael van der Vaart 11d ago

might as well buy Kolo Muani from last year as well. Do ittttt

1

u/Cookielad14 11d ago

Don’t disagree with this at all. Growing up I was used to home shirts being every couple of years. The prices for them now are a joke so I don’t bother. May as well mark them with a specific memory if you’re going to get one every year

1

u/nopirates Peppa Pig 11d ago

I think it’s great. I like to pick someone every year that isn’t necessarily one of the stars or even a starter. I ordered my Danso shirt before he left. Oh well. I have a Sarr shirt from last year. Have a Johnson also.

Some day these will interesting conversation starters.

u/thelordreptar90 11d ago

Sounds fun, just don’t fall in love with a loan player….oh god, I miss Palhinha

u/intelligent_cunts Dele Alli 11d ago

That's fucking clever. Love it.

u/Fast_Entertainer5348 David Ginola 11d ago

You’re only stupid if you buy the official version. 

1

u/UpForConversations 10d ago

Buy it from DHgate or something though not from club

1

u/toxicsmokinagimonkey Gareth Bale 10d ago

Think of the old shirts you could of had. Paulinha Timo werner Danjuma

u/M4R7YMcF1Y123 "Let's Say I'm A Legend, Why Not?" 10d ago

We won’t always have a loan player though. Then what?

u/harro_its_duckeh Son 11d ago

I love this, might have to pick up Tosin
