I'm going to suggest signing at least one of them first would speed up the process of signing both of them.

Nah, they are practicing synchronized contact signing
 
And get Alex Scott.

Bissouma / Skipp / Sarr / Maddison / Scott then Bentacuur to return is a good mix of prem proven and players that may have a high ceiling.

I'd happily see us sign Scott but it does make me laugh that he'd appease the "we must replace PEH cos Sarr & Skipp aren't experienced enough" crowd....

Scott is younger and less experienced than both.

PSG's oil money can outbid the Bavarian beer slushfund.

If Kane is willing to go to Paris, then Levy will see how high they're prepared to go and likely pull the trigger once he's extracted every last Euro.

If PSG & Luis Enrique's other CF target is Vlahovic, then assuming he's prepared to join us, PSG get Kane & we get Vlahovic.

It would be a huge call by Levy, but so would letting Harry run his contract down & leave on a free.

And it would prevent Kane massively improving one of our PL rivals.


The biggest surprise in all this would be Kane accepting a move to France.

In a weird way it would be a 'parting gift' of sorts from him, given we'd get the most money and it would remove him from the PL and save us the MotD pain each weekend.

Or we could instead drop out of the "race" for Vlahovic and leave PSG with a clear run at the boobie prize. :freund:
 
Postecoglou has shown a preference for strikers who are mobile and agile, and who can link up with the midfielders and create chances. This suggests that he would prefer a striker more like Jonathan David than Dusan Vlahovic.

For example, at Celtic, Postecoglou's preferred striker was Kyogo Furuhashi. Furuhashi is a mobile and agile striker who is good at running in behind defenders and creating chances. He is also a good dribbler and passer, which allows him to fit into Postecoglou's system.

Of course, Postecoglou is not opposed to having a more powerful and clinical striker in his team. For example, at Yokohama F. Marinos, Postecoglou's preferred striker was Carlos Eduardo. Eduardo is a powerful and clinical striker who is good at scoring goals in the box. However, he is not as mobile as Furuhashi, and he does not have the same creativity.

Ultimately, the type of striker that Postecoglou prefers will depend on the specific needs of his team. However, he has shown a preference for strikers who are mobile and agile, and who can link up with the midfielders and create chances.
At Celtic Kyogo never really got involved in the build up. He stretched the opposition by playing on the shoulder of defenders and going in behind. His real threat was he came alive in and around the 6 yard box.
 
It isn’t binary.

Brentford aren’t getting 40m this summer for Raya.
When he moves for 15m in January , will that make Raya ‘bargain basement’?
Poor argument. Did we want him now or in January?

If you going to try to make a point at least let it have bearing on current circumstances. Paul Pogba was an 90 million play, now they battling to get 12 million. Ndombele was a 50 million player, now his not even worth 20 million.

We needed a Good keeper now, not January. You argument has absolutely zero merit.

........And yet a far poorer counter-argument.

You clearly didn't even understand what was put to you.

If Kane leaves (which I suspect he will) then Vlahovic seems like someone I wouldn't be against, the question in my mind though, is why would he want to come to Spurs?

But Kane's staying. This is all clickbait bullshit. Chill.
 
Don't think Dier is going anywhere this season. I'll be extremely surprised. Im curious to know if we'll buy a CB. Hope we don't add Lenglett to the mix or we'll be back to where we were.

And if Levy Lovers want to ask where this comes from;


I can't see how we'll have a payed per view documentary of someone we are about to let go.
 
No he isn't he's way above it.
If he was bang average he'd be playing for Bristol or Stoke
Not getting call ups for the national team and playing in the prem.

I think we can safely assume that we're speaking relatively here. I mean sure, compared to a Sunday League footballer he's basically a god, and compared to your average championship baller he's brilliant, but relative to Spurs Gallagher is a pretty middle of the road midfielder. He's not really going to bring much to the table we don't have.

He plays like he's snorted a line 5 minutes before he got on the pitch though, so surprised Poch doesn't love him.

And no, I don't mean Lenglet.

Who do have that is a great presser and tackler that plays further up the pitch, drifts the the right flank and can ping crosses in?

If anything he brings something to the team that we don't already have and could be a great player addition to Madison for the AM role.
