Tottenham are set to make a £35m bid for West Ham's Irish midfielder Declan Rice, 20, despite competition from Premier League rivals Liverpool. (Daily Express)
Please no. He’s just a younger, skinnier version of Dier.
We need quality footballers, not more fucking athletic units.
Skipp’s better than Rice already.
Some players are just better suited to work in a specific system or under a particular type of manager. There's an almost stupid amount of factors that play into if a player is actually good or not and they can change in an instant.It’s not like they’re playing a new sport, it’s still football
There is hardly any quality down at the bottom. I think Lascelles from the Geordies is the only one I would even look at from the bottom six.If Fulham go down we should take Seri off them for cut price - hasn't done great this season but how much of an impact can you really make in a side struggling that much. Has a lot of quality that we could use in that position.
Just saw Maddison on football focus. Definitely a cocky cunt, 100% belief in himself but that is no bad thing. Obviously he has said some crappy things about Spurs when he was younger and apparently he is a gooner but he is a very decent player and seems to work hard on his game in order to improve. Highest number of chances created from free kicks this season so far. We could do with a bit of that
I would easily take Mitrovic as a back up to KaneThere is hardly any quality down at the bottom. I think Lascelles from the Geordies is the only one I would even look at from the bottom six.

Mitrovic is too one dimensional to succeed here.
He is what he is tho his presence and goal contribution would be enough to keep some teams up but when Fulham need 3 or 4 a game Mitroviic is wasting his time there
Mitrovic would cause more harm than good. He'd hardly start or play and beingnhe hot head that he is would cause so much hassle. Personally I think he doesn't fit the criteria even if he were to offer decent substance on a playing level. Poch goes for attitude as well as ability, I ain't sure he's one we should invest our efforts in
Rather play one of our academy kidsI would easily take Mitrovic as a back up to Kane
Almost every? That's a bit strong isn't it? What do the stats say and how do you quantify 'up to speed?'.Almost every player we sign from different countries/leagues takes at least a season to get up to speed. Keita's a great little footballer who will come good. I'd have him here in a heartbeat.
