So here are the main players we have been linked with, just crappy highlights videos
Its reassuring to see a Serie A focus on the incomings, in the hope that Conte knows full well they can cut it in the premier league

Because tanguy is a lost cause with no interest.he wants out simple as. Are you there everyday in training?? Im sure limited as he is winks is working hard.
Its called having a squad thats going to be needed esp in january.
Mourinho got dogs abuse for doing exactly what you want conte to do
That's a hopeless cause. Nobody can get something out of Ndombele, the guy has no work ethic. I'm pretty certain that if Ndombele was at Liverpool, he wouldn't survive a day before Klopp transfer-listed him as well. Winks is shit, and I still want him to be sold, but he's 10x more professional than Ndombele.And as I said, maybe Tanguy is a lost cause after Conte slagged him off publicly the week he joined us?
I don’t need to be there in training Conte has already said Winks trains hard.
Im aware we need a squad.
How is any of this adding up to Winks not being shit though?
Jose didn’t do exactly what I want Conte to do.
What I want Conte to do is get something out of Ndombele, not Winks.
No one said winks wasnt shit. Its you accusing people of saying winks is basically the answer when all they said was hes playing a bit better.And as I said, maybe Tanguy is a lost cause after Conte slagged him off publicly the week he joined us?

But by saying that people accuse you of thinking winks is world class and exactly what we needThat's a hopeless cause. Nobody can get something out of Ndombele, the guy has no work ethic. I'm pretty certain that if Ndombele was at Liverpool, he wouldn't survive a day before Klopp transfer-listed him as well.

Noone cant get anything out of ndombele. He doesnt want to be here has no interest in learning off 4 managers now and has been a colossal waste of time and money. Get him out take the hit and save the wages
Fair point re GK, I think it depends on the Lloris situation.A couple of quick points.
GK
Henderson won’t want to swap being the No.2 at ManU to being the No.2 at Spurs. So he would only come if Lloris goes.
Johnstone is out of contract in the summer and would be a solid backup To Lloris / Henderson
LCB
Torres turned out us down last summer.
Who said that?? Stop making up shit.So people are happy shit players won’t be sold because they train hard?
But that has been claimedBut by saying that people accuse you of thinking winks is world class and exactly what we need![]()
For all we know Davies', or Dier's, or Winks' strengths are exactly what Conte is looking for
Who said that?? Stop making up shit.
Plus id rather shit players train hard than shit players training shit
I think Lo Celsos’ got his heart set on going back to Spain to be fair . If that’s the case good riddance!Think Kulusevski - Lo Celso swap would be good for everyone. We should make it happen.
Whats your idea of backing? Saying hes playing a bit better!! Thats your logicWhat the fuck are you talking about?
Do you understand process of thought?
There are people backing Winks.
That’s a fucking fact.
You’ve said “no one thinks Winks isn’t shit” when that’s clearly not the case.
IF the people backing Winks do actually think he’s shit as you claim, then obviously they are ok with having a shit player in the squad because he works hard.
That’s YOUR logic.
Very interesting insights- cheers.I know you're just coming with suggestions but we are here to discuss:
Bayern are apparently very keen on Nico Schlotterbeck. as they are renewing their defense - and they usually their will when it comes to top German prospects (Havertz being one of the exceptions).
Brozovic is turning 30 next year (well in November so it's in 11 months). The EPL, with its intensity and pace, can be a hard league to adjust to, and for most players, it takes at least 1 season before they do. Brozovic would be 31-32 years he's "adjusted" (if he will), which will be at the age where most non-British players prefer to leave the EPL and play in a slower-paced league)
As for Kessie, I have mixed feelings about him but if Conte wants, well... What concerns me, though, is losing him to the ANC every second year, plus WC & ANC qualifiers. And with Pape Sarr returning next season, Spurs could risk losing both their CM for parts of the season. If Milenkovic-Savic, was signed I'd be fairly happy. Thing is, a couple of seasons ago all the big/rich clubs were apparently after him but then he went a bit quiet...
Neither Vlahovic nor Schick will join Spurs to be Kane's understudy. And with Son & Kane already occupying 2 of the 3 attacking spots in Conte's system, I think it would be a waste of talent to play any of those 2 wide. Yes, Kane could play a bit more withdrawn, which could allow Vlahovic to play as CF; but that would be a bit a waste of Kane's goalscoring ability.
Julian Alvarez is only 170 cm, which is a bit small for a CF In the EPL . And he is untested in Europe. It's rare that EPL signs South American players straight from their leagues. That he is a top talent there is no doubt, but he plays in a very possessive-oriented River P. team under Gallardo; which is quite different from Conte's style. I think he's headed for La Liga.

Nope what he said was for all we know it could be what conte is looking for for now.I just showed you a quote someone cloned Winks might be exactly what Conte is looking for.
There are people saying he deserves a nee chance and to start games.
Do you think these people think Winks is shit?
it's a different prospectiveI hope you’ve never had an opinion that differs to any manager we’ve ever had then, as all of them are a lot more qualified than you.
May as well close down this whole forum, nobody on here has more experience than any player or manager, so what’s the point giving an opinion.
