We would be stupid to turn that sort of money down
If you"re giving credit for almost getting him then you're falling victim to one of these classic ENIC ruses...go in late, lowball, and leak our intent as loudly as possible so our gallant failure has a veneer of ambition...I believe the goodDr Rocktopus coined it shambition.
Actual quality shouldn't depend on anyone else nor should it be dependent on situation or circumstance. If I'm a defender and he's bearing down on me with the ball I am not afraid because this player lacks intrinsic threat. That Diaz kid looks like he might have that level of threat as do the players in front of him at Liverpool and most other clubs that are found "chasing a CL trophy".
If you have the choice of Vinicius, Rodrygo, Mane, Salah, or Kulu bearing down on your with the ball at their feet who you choosing? That's right.
That’s 1 v 1. Football is a lot more than 1 v 1 on the wing.
Do you mean Jesus the Saviour?
IF true it would be money well spent by Toons and a good deal for both sides. Højbjerg is a leader but he's not suited for Conte's 2-man CMF. That £30m will be useful in the pursuit of a top-class CM. And add to that £30m comes the fees for Lo Celso and Ndombele, around £30m and £25m respectively, and Spurs have around £80-90M to spend on 2 new CM...
Nobody is paying £25m for Ndombele. Nobody will want to pay anything.
No,
Gabriel Jesus of Manchester City Football Club who play in the English Premier League, currently they are P1 in the table, they won the league last season, we beat them few months ago, we also beat them in the CL semi final few years ago. Gabriel is playing tonight in the CL semi against Ream Madrid. Let me know if you need further info, we are always here to help.
If we sell PEH, I'd expect Bissouma to be his replacement (given that he's cleared of his case). Makes too much sense not to happen.

sounds like a pastry
Unfortunately we don’t do sense.
You don't say? Though this ignores the substance of my point and gets you away from the prickly parts of the argument I will still respond anyway.
Yes, football is more than "1v1 on the wing" but the rest of all those footbally things going on are made easier when that backline AND that particular FB are outrageously concerned with the fact that your attacking player has that FB on toast. Long sentence, hell of a point. Football is "more than 1v1 on the wing" it is 1v1 all over the field.
To think football more than individual 1v1 actions is to totally miss the point; it's 1v1 everywhere, all the time. It's the very reason that dribblers are so loved by the teams that have them and hated by the teams that have to defend them. And dribbling allied with quickness to beat a man is essential to top players. And that doesn't "depend on the rest of the squad". It only depends on a respective player's ability...of which Kulu has not shown and this has led to him being stifled recently.
But let's keep this constrained to the idea of intrinsic quality since that is what I was responding to.
It's fine. You can't.
Yeah I can, we all have google. It's just a completely pointless thing to do which proves absolutely nothing and has nothing whatsoever to do with my original point. Why do I need to give you 5 random players similar to Diaz outside the top clubs to prove he would be good at Spurs? What's the angle here?
Who is going to spend £25m on Ndombele?
Richarlison? WTAF
Sterling would be a disaster, him and Kane have zero chemistry on the pitch and he plays in Sons position - ditto Zaha
JWP yes
Someone might - bigger issue is the oaf’s salary which is a Souter 30M
