Transfers January 2021 Transfer Thread

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Can we though? I remember there is a rule that a player can't be registered for 3 clubs in same season, or something along the line.

Kompany and Vidic were quite injury prone throughout their PL years as I recalled.

Terry and Ferdinand were also at the end of there career.
And how many Titles did Vidic, Ferdinand, Kompany and Terry win?

Dier does not belong in a top tier defence.
Toby maybe has a year left.
Sanchez has shown he's not suitable.
Rodon confuses me
Is Tanganga a CB or a RB or broken altogether?

Quick google search shows JT missed 71 games in 10 years and generally, that was down to 3 seasons, spread out, where he missed 14, 16 and 11
The rest were mostly 1, 4, 5 and 6
That's not bad for some one who threw himself about a lot.

Ferdinand not too dissimilar

Vidic - bit of a nightmare tbh.

Kompany was probably well documented about his injuries because it was so obvious when he played that City were much, much better.

I do always recall thinking we had a chance against United and City if they were missing Vidic or Kompany. If they played, I hardly thought it was worth turning up.

Can you say that about Dier and an ageing Alderweireld?
 
can't agree with you ryuzakiluke100, a midfielder with vision must be our first priority, we havw only Kane that can see a pass, the rest take 2-3 looks before they see whats on
seeing a pass is not easy very few players have that skill, the only player who may have that vision is Nodemble,
lamela GLC take too look to move the ball on,

You missed the point I made.

I didn't say we should aim for quality center half. I just pointed out it's unrealistic in having non injury prone as deal breaker. If we can have someone as injury prone as Vidic or Kompany and as good, for crucial part of the season, then it would be a risk worth to taking.

I see thing different. I see player as whole package. Just because you have good vision, and technical ability doesn't mean you can slot in and be as effective.

We need more than Eriksen in this team, which a creative player with some grit, and character. When thing doesn't go your way then it's time to get you jersey dirty.

There are players who get unlucky. Even Vidic, who was probably the worst of the 4, was mostly due to a cruciate knee injury and a herniated disc.
Compare that to King who had the same problem that never went away. As great as he was, he wasn't able to string a lot of games together, couldn't train etc.
 
9 matches 0 goals, 0 assists... Be odd to get him back after we signed Vinicius.

Agreed with last part, but to put the appearances into context he had a long period out injured so in probably half these matches he was probably getting back to match fitness

Not to mention Millwall make few chances (less than one goal a game scored by the whole Millwall team in league so far) so Parrott has to drop back to CM to pick up ball and create his own chancesj
 
Tuchell sacked as PSG manager, Poch possibly to be installed as new PSG manager = offer to buy Dele ?
It's so strange that Tuchel got sacked. He was really successful each season with PSG. He won everything and reached the CL final some months ago... It would surprise me if Pochettino would perform better at PSG... But yeah, it would be a good opportunity to sell Dele to them. He fits perfectly into this squad with Neymar Mbappe and so on.
