Could be a decent DM, a busy cunt so to say.

Ooops, the laughably bad one is Thomas Partey, a Ghanaian DM who plays as Thomas here. Jeez, he's awful, please god we don't get linked to him.

Although in Partey's defence, his goal scoring record from DM (10 in 110 games) is exactly twice as good as the more attacking Lemar's.

Swerve Daniel, swerve.
Only heard good things about Thomas, surprises me to get this veiw.
 
Really like the look of Phillips of Leeds, could be the answer at holding mid. Strong but mobile, good on the ball and good positional sense. Always looked impressive when I’ve seen him in championship games, but wanted to keep a close eye on how he did tonight against Woolwich, only half hour in but I’m impressed, Ozil hasn’t had a sniff so far.

Signing him and max Aaron’s in jan and then sorting out the rest of our problems in the summer would be smart imo

He is destined for bigger and more ambitious clubs sadly.
 

From Dybala and Koulibaly to this ^^^

and the depressing thing is that we won’t even get this non event who is on fucking loan. Even when they make shit up now it feels horribly and depressingly possible that it could be true, but we won’t / can’t afford to.

might as well be 2003...remembering the glory of Keller and Perry #spurslegends, you knew a team with them two in would fold like a poor poker player, so similar now...

You've said it multiple times and I respect that, but what makes him so great in your opinion (I haven't seen enough of him, just interested) ?

Such a rounded skill set, tenacious, works hard, presses well, wins the ball (Even this season he's still averaging 3.5 tackles a game), technically very good, good engine and can play football too. He's a 6 really, but played as that lateral 6/8 (as with Kante at Chelsea with Jorginho central) in Sarri's Napoli 433.

This is his radar from last year. One of the best I've seen for a player of his type:

Just for comparison, this is what we've had in our midfield for the last couple of years:
