This is fucking depressing
Would a great deal to do to be honest. Move a fringe player on and use him in orders to acquire someone that has high stats in an area we desperately need. Added bonus is he’s an experienced captain of a PL side so ticks all of the boxes for me as we navigate through the pandemic turmoil. Sign him up Jose!
C'mon, City, you fucking cunts, and gazump us. Can't have the bald man pull a stunt like this.
IMMINENT!
City will buy someone legit instead not the ASDA version
This is shaping up to be a tragedy of immense dimensions.
Did you just call Ndombele a DM?
How on earth did you manage to read something so wrong?
Everton battle with Tottenham over Southampton midfielder Højbjerg
Everton have bid £18m for the Southampton midfielder Pierre-Emile Højbjerg but Tottenham are also in negotiations

Mourinho is under pressure to make a success of Spurs’s record signing, Tanguy Ndombele, who joined last summer from Lyon for a little under £60m on a lucrative six-year contract. The midfielder’s value has decreased after a difficult first season but it would be hard to see Daniel Levy, the Spurs chairman, cutting any sort of losses on such an outlay.
The discussion at Spurs has turned to how Mourinho – who has used Ndombele only sparingly – can create a platform for him to thrive. Signing Højbjerg to play a disciplined role in front of the back four with Ndombele and Giovani Lo Celso, another expensive recruit, in more advanced positions in a 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 has merit.
Mourinho said last week that Spurs would not stand in Walker-Peters’ way should the 23-year-old wish to move on. “The general feeling is there’s a place for him here,” Mourinho said. “But if his desire is to be playing every time and leaving the club in search of happiness, I don’t think we’d stop him. He’s a player with a good value in the market but I don’t think we’d stop him doing it.”
A 4-3-3 with Hojbjerg, Lo Celso and Ndombele if a genuine holding DM can compliment the ones we have now could have all sorts of interesting surrounding it. Bring in someone like Mukiele at RB and a proper CB with Milik and we’d be looking pretty solid again has to be said.
