Transfers Summer 2020 Transfer Thread

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

From my man that knows a man.

(from a leeds source) Danny Rose talking to Leeds. He wants 1st team football. Unfortunately his salary demands are ridiculous and wants club to let him go on a free so he can get a higher salary..
 
If, and it is a big if, we get Reguilon then that would completely change the way we play. Saw some rumors that we were in for him, but it makes no sense. I am not talking about the 2013 tweet, but something on reddit.

Either way, it makes sense to sit with Davies as we play with a back three with Doherty pushing up. Just doesn't make sense judging by Jose's style of play.
 
Diego Costa was fucking shit for Atleti last season, considerably worse than in the previous two seasons, when he was just plain poor. 5 goals in 30 games might tell you that.

As for all this "He might be a cunt but he'd be our cunt" bollocks. Jesus wept, listen to yourselves.
If he can't do it in a Simone team he can't do it anymore . The way people assume players are still at their best may as well get gazza in.
 
Being a forward isnt just about scoring goals - look at players like Firmino.

Costa and Suarez would be a handful for defenders and would be a nightmare to player against, making more room for our skillful finishers in Alli, Son and Kane.

I highly doubt we would sign anyone over 30 that expects 150k a week+..... Unless his name rhymes with fail.
 
Is there not a little bit of fear that a big name striker, especially one Mourinho has a history with, could end in Mourinho feuding with Kane and leading him toward the exit door?

I think there ought to be zero doubt that kind of rift could develop. I would very much like to think Levy would sack Mourinho before irreparable damage was done in the club's relationship with Kane, but you never know.

Yes, yes, competition for places and all that, but we can't recreate our top couple of players the way Mou's previous employers could.
This is where Barca went wrong with Messi, they went out of there way to keep him happy, besides I think Kane is the type that thrives on competition , and no player is bigger than the club, we need someone who can challenge him and provide cover when he is out, unfortunately we aren’t like City though and can’t afford a player like Jesus to be sat on the bench, but we can afford a record signing on £200k a week to sit on the bench a whole season ...... the dream is Troy smashes it at millwall and comes back next season ready to be that guy.
 
Reguilon doesn’t really make sense. He’s really attacking and I’m expecting Doherty (if he signs) to be the one FB that is given license to get forward. That’s why I think Jose is happy to stick with Davies. He probably won’t cross the halfway line.

We could alternate and play Dier or Tanganga as rb with an attacking lb though.

Or a conventional 3 at the back with proper wing backs.
