Tournaments are an age old problem - is a player who has looked good to Poch's scouts during a season any the worse if he plays poorly in a tournament ? And the concensus seems to be its the whole Argentina team.
And do you buy a player who shines in a tournament but been anonymous in the season before ?
Certainly puts into reality that Poch might want Celso, but no point in paying the demanded £70m/£80m , DL is right to negotiate to an upper sum of say £50m, especially as others not bidding
high. At some stage if Betis don't lower their expectations, we will need to move into other players imo
He's more like Kante than any of those.
Rice, Marsh or Skipp have never ran round totally snuffing out the Argentine midfield and knocking Messi off the ball.
Not a ball carrier, but someone who (immensely effectively) wins back possession and is always available for a pass. He can run with the ball, he is extremely effective in defence and like I say would have been a Kante type player. Possibly even better than Kante as he is stronger.
I think no one cares to much as we went through, had the goal stood would have been a very different story!
Pauleta, best no. 9 to come out of Portugal for years. Despite him starting in Brazil, I liked Deco.
Any player that wants a new challenge (aka bigger club) having spent a number of years at Spurs.....
I don't believe we're looking to sell but if a huge offer comes in we'll consider it for a player in the last year of his contract,I believe no one will buy him at the price set. Hope that's clear.
Daniel Levy makes Spurs' Christian Eriksen transfer stance clear to Real Madrid
Spurs chief Levy met with Real Madrid president Florentino Perez in the Spanish capital on Friday nightwww.mirror.co.uk
No quotes in that article, but I'll take t as serious as I can for the purposes of this conversation.....
What we'd rather is fairly obvious... Renewed contract and probablly sell him in a couple more years.... UNTIL that is he did his little dance with the media.... From there despite your claims we don't KNOW how Poch/Levy feel about Eriksen's commitment (as already noted Levy is alleged to be pissed off!).
Key here (for us) is a new deal for CE, yet it is the least likely scenario considering CE's declared desires and the fact that he holds the cards here.
Like I've already said... Any speculation and detromental impressions are CE's own fault... See interview.
......Couldn't I say exactly the same thing about you? ....Couldn't one say that about any single exchange on here? ....How often do we genuinely change each other's minds.?
See above.... Ironically, you're evidently not prepared to entertain the distinctions I'm making here.
I'm pointing out that the manager's commitments to the press are entirely different and he has to manage a vastly different scenario.... CE can ultimately refuse to talk to the press. Poch can't and therefor has to run the gauntlet and regularly face invasive, trolling and dishonest questioning numerous times every damn week.
My perception (and subsequent appreciation) of his seasosn is relative to the standards HE's set.
False. I presented list of clubs that would fit his criteria in the face of you claiming to KNOW that no other club besides RM could nor do have any interest in signing him.
Fundamental point being you're presenting baseless speculation as fact again.
False again. Show me where I've singled him out for our defeat?
No it isn't. You're building the bulk of this aspect of your case on falsehood.
CE's made his bed here... Not me.

I'm pretty confident he's talking about Bernardo Silva
Kane's been highly productive despite multiple injury absences... On projection he'd have had another 40+ goal season if he'd managed to stay fit.
He’s more Rice than he is Kante. He’s tenacious and quite energetic without the ball but he’s much more one dimensional than Kante is.
2017 Wanyama was better than Barrios.
If you just told Marsh to zip around kicking Messi, he’d do it fine. Skipp would do it and play a bit of football.
Either way, nothing like Dembele?
That sounds lovely, but Dembele was fundamenally a ball carrier that broke lines and created time and space for us to play.
By the same token, Lamela didn't cost us a goal either.
506 days since our last signing and still going strong!

17 league goals..
Only Defoe and Bale have higher returns since Klinsmann in 1995.
Are you going to tell me that strikers are judged on how they return from injury rather than how many goals they score?
