Ream played more minutes than all 3 and Tosin had 80 more minutes than Diop in the league and less than him in all comps.

So a close-run battle for 2nd best CB all season long. At Fulham. With Issa Diop, who West Ham sold for 15m.

You're assuming that they necessarily start their best players, I wouldn't be at all surprised if Tosin's refusal to sign a contract got him dropped.

What a fucking position to be in. Hoping a team that finished sixth in France last season don’t buy a defender who was fulham’s third choice centre back, so that we can buy him. What the actual fuck?!?!

We’ve no idea why he’s picking Monaco over Spurs but he may just really want to live in the French Riviera.
If Monaco pull out then maybe he still doesn’t want to come to Spurs — he hates London or Australians. Who knows?

3rd choice for Fulham, why is he good enough for us?

Suits us stylistically. Seems to have wrestled his way in to starting later in the season and as a 3rd/4th choice that's fine and better than Dier/Sanchez if he can play a bit. We'd all like City's CB depth but it ain't happening.

But seems like he prefers Monaco. They're generally quite good at spotting talent so he's probably quite good.

I’m tired of this fanbase acting like we’re way above Tosin Adarabioyo.

-tall, 6’5”, 80th percentile aerial stats in the PL
-quick, thrives running back to goal
-grew up in City’s academy, is intricately familiar with the 2-3-5 buildup Ange uses
-HG, one year on his contract, cheap.

I know I sure as hell prefer Tosin over Dier in any system requiring a high line. And he wants to come.

Get it done.

Tosin is fine as the 3rd CB in the rotation. Get a top CB target to play next to Romero and Tosin as the HG option, who will get games when either is out... OK.

If you bring him in as the main CB signing of the summer, or with fucking Lenglet, the club should hang their heads in shame every time they take 80 quid off a family for each kid that buys a ticket to a game.

Pure shame.

I revise my list and now would say that just Tosin would be better than with Lenglet.

Signing Lenglet earns the club minus points.

Tbh I've never heard of him so it's no big loss. Think we will get vdv and tapsoba once weve offloaded the dross. Have a feeling we will get phillips and send him out on loan

Sounds like my old headmaster.

I remember the Poch days when there was jubilation and excitement on match days, entertaining football and happy fans. Even this forum was positive.

Now look at us. Half of the transfer thread is deranged maniacs threatening to commit suicide if Levy doesn't buy a cb. We're all world-weary and haggard. Last 3 years, we've been watching Spurs games with trepidation rather than excitement.

Ange is not only a football manager, he also has to be a therapist. We are all suffering from trauma and ptsd. People are so deep in suffering and mental trauma that Levy has convinced them signing Traore on a free would be a massive coup. These poor souls are suffering, Daniel. Have some mercy, please.

Transfer threads have been a shit show even in Poch times
 
From SC ITK:

cabinessence: "Bit of Rock Solid. Was going to be one of the two CHs we've been linked with and a cheaper one as well. Now waiting for Harry to go and maybe buy both CHs and a younger reserve striker. Like it or not, Rich appears to be our new No. 9."


Rock Solid:ange-confused:

Either they just pieced that together from links to Wahi and Tel or there is some truth to it.

FWIW, I wouldn't hate it.
