I refuse to allow myself to get excited about it. It kind of feels like the kiss of death.
 
Not sure how I’d feel about this. He had the world at his feet at one point, genuinely looked like he could be world class. He then let his attitude take over.

There was a nice article a few months back where he admits regret over leaving Spurs and being impatient with Poch. If they could make up, it seems like it could be a great way to strengthen CM and help out the club-trained quota!
 
A well known tweeter saying what I suggested a few months is now in process.

Nabil Bentaleb buy back clause being activated ( circa £24m)
- 24 year old with CL experience ( played CL last 16 with Schalke this season)
- Club trained
- Poch knows him well, he knows Kane and others well so minimal integration required
- Mainly played CM or DM in double pivot under Poch, used to play as AM in Spurs youth.good tackler passer knows how to press and get assists. What's not to like

Add him to Ndombele and Lo Celso as midfield (CM and AM) and probably done there - still need Kane deputy after Llorente leaves but that might be AM/striker.
Big fan of Benteleb tbh..I think if it's 24m buy back you can't go wrong tbh.
 
Bentelab and N'dombele(please God)coming in means we will off load Dier imo. No way our we gonna keep N'dombele, Bentelab, Winks, Sissoko and Dier all happy.

Either Skipp is trusted as fifth choice or we keep Wanyama as 5th choice and let him know he will get limited minutes which he might not mind due to his injury history.
