I'm ok with that.
I think we might need another attacker
It's all Greek to me.....
The media take on it, is that will buy again.
Conte keen on further signings if favoured fringe players leave in clear-out
Antonio Conte has raised the possibility of further signings at Tottenham this summer, saying the club must replace any players who leave before the end of the month.

He missed 16 PL games.
We also have Champions league football (min 6 games)
We also have FA Cup
We also have league cup
If you overlay 16 Premier League games he missed in that 80 day period, he missed 2 FA Cup games, 3 league cup games, 2 Europa league games (would have been 3 if we played our final game)
He's off to a flier this season, having played 2 games and now likely to miss our next 5, maybe 6 games.
We have to keep an eye on this and any here who can't see this is out of the their mind.
If we have any way of delaying making this permanent then we have to use it to make the right decision.
If we don't, if we rush into it, we could be here in a years time moaning about how we have a £40m player we can't get rid of and possibly can't afford to replace who is never available.
We have to make the buy decision before the end of this window. So you are saying no?
Malinovskyi is a no brainer for me
101 apps, 22 goals, 23 assists in his Serie A career
This is exactly what we need

3 years ago l went to a christening in Kalamata .
My family are friends of a major cement producer owners in the Peloponnese. My mother worked for the BBC world service back in the 70s and would translate, help Greek families having complicated medical treatment usually in Harley Street.
Many became life long friends.
He sat at the main table , the baby briefly wore a Olympiakos football shirt , they played the Olympiakos theme tune as the baby entered the reception area after the orthodox Christian church service.
He is a giant and was the "Godfather" to the baby . We really had no idea who he was at the time but since, the perception in Greece is he is
dodgy , fraud , witnesses ending up dead , drug importing but nothing has been proved as he has major influence with politicians , owns a large chunk of the media ( he is in the parliament)
I don't think he has to money launder by buying average players at inflated prices as he many outlets that will raise no suspicion.
Exactly. No one knows. Not only about Romero, but about any player. If you can find me a player - at any price - that never gets injured and is as good as Cuti, please let me know.
Oh dear, I am not an English teacher (and neither is ITV Hercules) but "possibly not" and "that's for sure" seem a bit contradictory in Hercules' response
ITV = In The Vagueness
Hercules:
To say nothing is in it is way off. But nothing imminent, and possibly not, that’s for sure. But we have investigated.
WE have investigated ? What about Spurs though ? Complete bollox
I mean does anyone know what the terms of the loan to buy deal are.
I'd rather let him go and spend that money on another punt if the medical team have any indication something isn't right here.
As for finding a player who we know isn't injury prone, perhaps start by looking for some one with more games behind them.
In his first season in Argentina -15 games
2nd season - 4 games
1st season in Italy - 27
33
42
121 games in total in 6 season. Cards on the table, I don't have evidence, it just feels low to me. He's a part of the spine and we can't afford to mess this up. I have a concern that may take years for me to rid myself of.
His loan is until this summer. It’s not an 18 month loan like Kulusevski who was bought in January.
There's a 0% chance we don't buy Romero, why are we even discussing this?
What am I missing?
He's our best defender, and it's not close. With him, we arguably need ANOTHER CB, now isn't the time to get rid of our best one and try to bring in 1-2 replacements.

You do realise that Leicester want £80m+ for Fofana, who is similarly talented, less beast more agile, but still.
Leipzig want £80m odd for their CB everyone craves.
You be trolling, no? We spent the same on Davison.
