Wonder what happened to this side :

ManU 1 - 6 Tottenham

Spurs (4-2-3-1): Lloris (c), Aurier, Dier, Sanchez, Reguilon, Hojbjerg, Sissoko, Ndombele (Dele 69), Lamela (Lucas 46), Son (Davies 73), Kane. Substitutes (not used): Hart, Doherty, Alderweireld, Winks.

Especially as almost half the starting X1 are on the short list to be sold asap
Aurier absolutely ran Luke Shaw off the park that day.
 
Very highly regarded, never seen him play though. He's been linked to us, City and Liverpool over the last 2 years. Apparently excellent at shot stopping, catching crosses/corners, and a little closer to average at using his feet.
Cakir is mustard. Let Lloris go and get this guy in if Nick Pope is too expensive.
 
I notice that Schalke have beeen relegated and players at the end of their contracts are allowed to find other clubs for free - including Bentaleb and Capoue.

If we sold Winks to raise cash and re-signed Bentaleb (both being Club trained players) on a one or two year contract ........ ? (allows Harvey White to have a one year loan and 16 year old Alfie Devine time to mature ?)

Bentaleb is useless

Couldn't get a contract at newcastle for god sake
 
Hear me out.... Kane for Werner and Abraham + money

Sonny to PSG

With the money generated get Calvert-Lewin & Max Aarons

Sell other dross and with the money Ndicka & Botman. Onana on the cheap with a deal left and not being able to play until Jan/ Feb time.

Hate the idea of it but if we are needing to wheel and deal and Kane is off Sonny will be as well, harsh reality of where we might find ourselves.
That's a Championship level team.
 
I know.

Its astounding that several players in that side played like champions - even Sissoko had a decent game too. Bizarre, hence my original post
Utd were down to 10 men for a lot of the game and they were undercooked fitness wise due to a lack of prep during a short pre season and the new season starting very quickly after their Europa League run.

Game was in October. Agree lots of fitness issues this last season, but we were already on top at 2 - 1 ahead when Martial was sent off - despite Spurs having had one week with 2 mid week games.

I think answer in truth is it was a one off game where everything we did worked out. Sadly for us, it doidn't repeat (except that in December we were top, Astonishngly.)

Capoue is a Villareal player with a contract until 2022?
 


I'm really not sure why this got so many funnies. If they chucked in 30-40m instead of 10, I wouldn't laugh it out of town. I'd prefer Abraham/Pulisic but I'd consider Werner/Abraham.

Werner is an almost identical player to Son, but has already proven he can have a plus 20 season, something Son's never done. I know Werner's had a tough season in front of goal, but I'd be more worried if he wasn't constantly getting into those positions, but he is, he's previously proven he can score. His pace and movement continually causes problems for defences.

You could have Son and Werner either side playing off Abraham doing the fulcrum hold up work.

Like I said, I'd rather have Pulisic (because of the similarities of Son and Werner) but the other option is take Werner/Abraham and we could even sell Son as well, meaning we get Werner/Abraham and 80-100m to spend on the team from two players going (Kane/Son) replaced with players that are much younger.
 
Thanks to the timing of Harry's Gary Cunting Neville interview every club will shirley jack up their prices for even the most average of players regardless of Kane's sale being closed. This has really fucked the club this window.

You want Skriniar? That'll be 100M. Jack Grealish? lol. 150M. We know you have the money so cough up or fuck off.

How hard is it to just say nothing? His agent brother wanting to be Billy Big Bollocks by leaking it to Sky when he should be meeting with prospective clubs behind closed doors and conducting business in private.

I wonder how happy Harry is going to be with Charlie if this does not lead to a move and he is stuck here for at least another season and with a potentially damaged relationship with the fanbase.

Making family members your agents/managers is such a dumb move in my opinion. If I was in any way famous I would not want that. I would want an agent that if I was displeased with their services I could cut ties and never see them again. Bit hard when it is your brother or sister or a parent.

Well you can imagine that this interview was within the last couple of weeks. In that time he has hardly been running around bleeding for the club like that lovable idiot Pierre (bless him). Seems to have stopped caring since Jose left perhaps I don't know. I figured he was just injured in the cup final when he jogged about disinterested.

I think the only thing worse than selling Kane is keeping him at this point. He doesn't want to be here. In a team of absolute melting wantaway cunts, having the best player stick around due to a chairman blocking his move will be a disaster.

The whole narrative of Harry being the model professional died on a golf course with that cunt Neville.
 
Has to either be world class or a big talent, some of the replacement names on here is frankly embarrassing

Embarrassing maybe, but realistic.

Why would any world-class players or big young talent's want to join a club clearly going backwards?

We'll be lucky sign the likes of Ings and Andersen. I'd take them both right now because we're not going to attract any better, that's for sure.
