Game changing right back ... Ridle Baku from Wolfsburg.
Kane is sold. Vlahovic off to Atletico. Martinez stays at Inter. We get in Braithwaite on deadline day but at least levy made a sick profit. Nailed onWe are selling Harry and buying Braithwaite last minute ain’t we ?
But he did and since he talked to Neville we all knew he wanted out, plus CV has been sent back to Benfica anyway.
So you'll be ok with us keeping him for the season?
Nope but I am aware that our right backs aren't good enough which puts Nuno at an disadvantage.
Completely agree. Or a last minute ridiculous bid for Ivan Tony. Levy fucking special on the cards 100%.
They should. The problem they have is to get a good crop of kids you need to invest and raise the level of coaching in an area and improve the grass routes coaching in the are. Spurs have done this massively since I was kid where we didn’t really do anything now we have professional coaches working for Tottenham going out as far as Buckinghamshire which improves coaching in the area and helps identify young players. When I was a kid this program only had one location and it was next to The Spurs Stadium and run by an ex Spurs Player one day a week.
I'd be shocked if Kane doesn't happen. Clear thing is City not even linked with another top striker, they clearly just have their eyes on Kane and we can all read between the lines of Kanes behaviour.
It wouldn't surprise me if Martinez and Vlahovic come. The news of a replacement being to work with Kane I think is just to cool the selling club that we have money from a Kane deal. We negotiate fair prices for both strikers and once a deal is agreed you could see a quick turnaround of two in and Kane out.
Ajax manager seemed clear on wanting Bergwijn also, there's a lot still to go.
Kane has definitely caused us issues. The plan was probably not to sell him unless the right fee was reached, but him not appearing for training and City lowballing has a knock on effect to the rest of our business with new attackers. Teams will know we're desperate and have to do a Sissoko type transfer to plug a hole if Kane leaves and others know we've just had a big load of money paid in.

Yes...... But still; like I said, Kane's exit (or not) will influence who we buy and how much we spend in terms of ST1 and ST2.
(Again; stick with what I said...... I wasn't talking about Kane's desires... I spoke specifically of him pulling his Florida stunt. If he was being the model pro he's painted to be, then like I said it wouldn't be in question who starts on Sunday.)
I said (and made a point of underlining the phrase):
"in the interim."
Come on mate.... Don't start shit-housing.
(FWIW: I'd be fine with him staying for another year as #2 though.)
.....And we still have 18 days left to sign one .....AND it looks like we will. Thus see above re: Serge. :roll:
Would fit in with us then!Rice is a very good player.
But he is world class?
He didn't turn up in the Euro final. If he had we would have won.
Big games the guy just doesn't show up.
Which is why I say they should have a good academy.... It would be extremely prudent given how large & populated their catchment area is.
We are going to outbid Atletico for Vlahovic, and give him a higher salary.
The only reason he goes Atletico is if he wants CL football.
But they have Suarez and Felix, so with kane gone we'd be able to better guarantee him first XI.
I can’t see us selling Kane until we know that Vlahovic and Martinez or another good striker are ours. Would be crazy if we did.
Similar to Goaldado
Yes, fair point.
Has been very good for Villarreal.
Had a few dodgy moments at the Euros, but hopefully that's not representative.
Great ball playing defender. Would be a huge coup if we got him.
Sounds like a very young Verts. Great on the ball with the odd dodgy moment.
