That’s too much to ask. I mean we only have 5 left backs at the club. A completely normal amount. That’s not enough if anything.

More concerned about the abuse he’s likely to get on the pitch — although our ‘fans’ have probably conditioned him to it.
It's because they rely on pessimistic speculation and when they get called out for it , they have no answer except to insult and fall back on "Levybot etc".Why? All the time, like that's the default for them, why?
According to all reports..
Exactly.
Maybe this is why the transfer has dragged on.
They’re reluctant sellers.
Can’t think who else this scenario might apply to?
(Difference being Tapsoba has three years(?) left on his contract).
I think it's a bit of both.
I think we've show interest, the player himself is likely also interested but Leverkusen are reluctant to sell their best and most valuable centre half when they don't really need to. Like you say, 3 years on his deal.
I think there's probably been discussions on price, add ons etc and in typical Spurs fashion, our bid has been way below what they think he's worth to them.
But we can't just buy a centre half for 80 odd million because we need a centre back. That's ludicrous. I'm all for backing Ange, but let's have a bit of realism here.
To be fair. Ange is used to managing teams in leagues where Gary Doherty would be considered Messi-esque
5. But they only half as Good as the Best. Does that make 2½ LBs?
Whether Tottenham would pay the fee on Bastoni is irrelevant. He said he wasn’t leaving. Not getting him had nothing to do with the fee.
It’s the same reason that no-one will get Eric Dier this summer. He refuses to leave.
Repeat after me: Players have agency.
Posters on here are split into many camps. It's okay as long as it's within the margins.Posters on here;
"Cracks appearing, not happy, frustrated, won't put up with Levy's shit"
Why?
Do you think Davies, who hasn't featured at all at left back in pre season whether it in training or in matches, would be a starter?
You really do talk way too much common sense for this forum.
Not sure either of those countries are great either from a racism point of view
Yep,Did Levy pay you to type that, Levybot?
I can now afford to buy a new pencil.
Happy days.
I actually thought some of our best football this past season came with Davies at LB mate.
Off the top of my head, the West Ham-Forest winning run in February was when Conte finally put him at LB to solidify that side. And then finishing the season he was at LB as well under Mason. I’m happy with him there as a rotation option, he’s a great squad player.
At the very least, his presence means that keeping all of our other FOUR left backs seems non-sensical.
Is this a Cryptic Clue that the new stadium sponsor is going to be Amazon
More business than we've done in the last 3 weeks, fair play.
Well he's coming from the Scottish Premier League, Carter-Vickers is like Ramos over there, I assume Davies would be like Cafu.
