I think, reading between the lines, it would appear that we have been told that our two first choice targets for LCB (Bastoni and Gvardiol) are not leaving this summer no matter what. So, we have taken Lenglet on loan. If he’s good, we keep him and purchase him for peanuts. If not, we get rid and go again for Bastoni.Bremer would be the upgrade on Dier.
You would not get an upgrade on Sanchez as an understudy CB unless you spend £30m+. He would be a very solid understudy RCB.
Lenglet may be the Davies upgrade. Time will tell.
However, I hope that Spurs are still looking at a top-notch LCB.
Wank the rest on HakimiPerisic LWB
Bissouma CM
Forster GK
Richarlison LW/ST/RW
Lenglet LCB
Should still have good money left for a top CB and RWB, if we land those 2 targets then the squad will be looking very good. It would be interesting to see if anyone else would be on the radar. Positive so far, still more work to do.
Adds something different in terms of chasing down and off the ball work. Great nuisance to mix it up - excellent back up for Son and Kane. They generally played 90 every week, this allows them to rest (start from bench) or sub off on 70 minsThink Richalison will get on really well with our current forwards tbh (from a person perspective at least anyway).
Let's see if he can linkup well with them on the pitch : )
Are you saying Levy didn’t have a scooby for the first 21 years, welcome aboard , choochoo, choochoo
I must admit I am delighted with the current trajectory of the club though
You say that as if it's a bad thingThe only credit Levy deserves thus far is hiring someone who knows what they're doing and staying out of their way. This happened in 2013 as well let's not forget with Baldini.
Except, as I've already proven to you we don't "end up with profit as usual".Only we sold Bale at the end of it to end up with a profit as usual.
FWIW Everton fans are distraught with the deal, which is always a good sign
I think he will do well here
Bremer and Hakimi would make us title contenders. No idea if we can make it happen.
If we get richarlidson and lenglet only rwb is needed (spence)
Don't know if we are going for a lwb
Maybe conte thinks sess can do the next step otherwise reguillon is a solid player and not more
