Any more links to the guy from Marseille?
Gonna have to get at least 3 new body's in the door still, a new RB, LB and still need cover for Eriksen even if he signs a new deal as rumoured

Barca seem to want rid of Semedo so he'd be a good option.
I keep hearing this response, is nobody allowed an opinion until the window is closed?
What's the point of this thread even existing if we all have to just wait until the window is closed to have an opinion?
I am not saying the worst is going to happen I am simply saying what I think, letting Trippier go is a mistake imo because our backup options are worse and even if we sign a player better than him I think Trippier would be our best backup option off the bench.
If we got a new RB and had Trippier as a bench option that would be the best case scenario, if we sell him now that means we have KWP and Aurier and a possible new signing to come in and hopefully hit the ground running (which is no guarantee and it's also no guarantee he will be better than Trippier, as Aurier has proven already.)
It makes no sense to sell off a player who is currently our best option at RB and take a risk on someone coming in and being better whilst also weakening our options from the bench.
I don't need to wait for the window to close to think selling Trippier is a mistake because he is currently our best RB option (even if I think he isn't very good.)
Hmm VERY risky to go down with three RBs who aren't top 4 quality. Poch knows better but I hope we'll bring in a replacement.
The telegraph or someone reported he did but the club never released anything....
The problem is not with having an opinion. The problem is when one repeats that same opinion over and over and over and over ad infinitum. It's boring.
You aren’t allowed one you negative cock womble just give it a rest for once
and Norwich this week signed another right back. Sam Byram
20 mill for Aarons will be chicken feed after he shows what he can do in the PL. He looks very talented.
Why no other comps?
2015/2016 = 19 apps as back-up (decent numbers)
2016/2017 = 22 apps as back-up (better numbers)
2017/2018 = 35 apps as #1 (big increase)
2018/2019 = 38 apps as #1 (even more)
Lets paint a full and honest picture here.
Every player has their detractors (stupid individuals can be heard ragging on Kane or whoever every weekend!) and by the same token a fair few immediately rushed to declare KT "better than Walker" when he started clocking up a few assists.
Sympathy... Violins.... Just alternative phrasing. You said you felt "sorry" for him - I'm reflecting on that sentiment, that's all.... I'm not debating the fact that you wish him well... I do to. I just don't see anything sympathy worthy about the guy doing his job and having a relatively successful run at it.
Not particularly random, no..... Just a reflection on the kinda situation where my sympathy may arise.... I also noted Davies who is widely under-appreciated.
Happy to leave it there... I don't wish to over-egg my point; thru fear it'll come across like I'm having a dig at KT..... I'm not.[/QUOTE]

Spurs haven't made a bid for Saliba, just enquired. No way we pay £30m for a player and loan him back for a season.
Ceballos doesnt want a permanent. Why would we take him on loan just to send him back next season? Waste of time.
Where England trained that time? My missis owns a villa there .... you can watch them train from the terrace
Bloody dull place .... you must play a lot of golf
Give them Onomah for fucks sake.
