I'd take Sterling if he could be tempted if he decides to move on from City, especially for the right money. He can be frustrating at times but he's always a big threat with his pace and movement. A front three of Kane, Son and Sterling with Kulusevski playing in the hole with Bentancur and Skipp (or someone better) behind him. I'll take that.

I can see Newcastle making him their big summer coup though, should he leave.

Conte plays with 3 CBs and he won't drop any of his 2 wing-backs.
Besides, Son is more efficient as WF and Kane more efficient as CF...
I would not want to sacrifice a proven formation even to fit Sterling in.
 
front line keep: kane, son, kulu, gil, one of berg and lucas (sell the other and replace)
midfield keep: PEH, skipp, bentancur, sarr
midfield sell: winks
defense keep: romero, doherty, dier, one of sess or reg (sell the other)
defense sell: davies, rodon, sanchez, emerson
keepers: lloris, forster

get a new front line addition in, 1or 2 midfield, a LWB a RWB and 2 cbs..... next year will be very tasty indeed!

Davies will stay and deservedly so
 
i think Bastoni is really likely now.

Very interested to see about the Wing backs, an audacious bid for Hakimi would be insane however unlikely.

CM an interesting area too. I like the 3 - Hojbjerg, Skipp, Bentancur but a Bellingham type in the mix would be exciting.

I don't understand this fascination some people have with Gil. He's 21 and has absolutely no end product. It's almost as bad as his hair.
 
Kostic ( Perisic as a cheap 'b' option)
Spence/Baku
Bastoni
Eriksen and Neves/Milinko Savic
Moussa Diaby or Jonathan David

A bonus would be Jesus or Nkunku (my favourite player on this list), but I figure they'd be too expensive for players who wouldn't be everyday starters.

I'm not a big fan of Sterling but with 50+ games next season, we need top quality player to rotate with the front line.

Sterling plays on the right for England quite often, and in a Conte 343 he would fit in Kulu's place quite nicely. Conte likes his wide forwards to drop deep and pick up the ball but it hasn't worked for Son and Lucas, but has worked for Kulu. Sterling would be great for that.

Sterling, Kane, Kulu could also work.

Perisic is better than Kostic IMO.

Milenkovic-Savic is world class, easy to pick him over Neves too.

The £150 mil sounds good but the cynic in me wonders two things.
1. Is part of that already gone in the signings of Kulu and Romero?
2. Is this simply being put forward because they know a naming of the ground deal is imminent?

150M is added already to the revenue and the sales. Basically Uncle Joe decided to donate Spurs a bit of his money for the first time ever.

true but that was in an advanced position. What's his defending like?

In seriousness. I can't claim to have watched a whole lot of his run at Lyon. But looking at the results when he played LB on Transfermarkt they seem to not be that bad.
 
Why do people want soon to be 34 year old Perisic so much? He's been a quality player and is still decent but I can't imagine him fairing too well in the Premier League at this stage of his career,

Given that Conte has done an enviable job in getting some solid contributions out of Emerson, Doherty and Sessegnon. Any chance he can inspire Ndombele to play like he did in his initial few games at Spurs?

I remember Moussa.D had a similar transfer window where there were no takers and he seemed a bad fit into the team before Pochettino worked his magic and turned him into a monster midfielder operating alongside Wanyama

That would be a dream come true and Ndombele could become one of the top 5 players in the world, but I'm afraid his mentality is such that there isn't much that can get through to him to turn his career around.
 
Kulusevski and Kostic have the same agents

Also Cornet's agents manage Sessegnon and Parrot too

So should be easy to do deals with either or both players
