Why does he need to make an excuse
I doubt his contract had a clause that entities us to send him wherever we want on loan.
We’d all hope he will go and it sounds like a great loan for him but deciding the best place for his career isn’t a cunt move

No, why is it a weak excuse? Why should he put up with racial abuse, which the Italian FA will do nothing about?
He would probably see want to stay for the rehabilitation facilities tooWill have to pay Perisic to go. He’s out for rest of season so won’t be in the squad anyway.
If he says he's fit he's going to The Euros regardless of playing TimeI don't think so.
He may go to Croatia where the transfer window does not close until mid Feb giving him some extra weeks for his injury to heal.
If he stays at Spurs he won't get any game time and he wants to go to the Euros.
It’s well documented that he has a shit attitude and a bad influence in the dressing room…Weird fan mentality init.
Ultimately he’s probably a bit down about the Leeds loan and probably doesn’t fancy being used as a pawn to make a deal for Spurs when let’s face it, the club likely don’t care much about him.
I don’t really blame him for not being instantly willing to drop everything and go to Italy for us, he’s not a supporter.
We?
Would be ace to see another body signed this Jan tho'.... Even if they're on a loan-back basis and arrive in the summer.
Great post - fully agree.Yep, I am starting to think "this will be it".
No one is willing to pay for neither of PEH (Juve reported "out"; no other realistic rumors to be heard so far) or Lo Celso (both 18 months on the contract) and if neither leaves, there is no real room to bring in a new player. We then have Bentancur, Bissouma, Sarr, Maddison, PEH, Lo Celso and Skippy as our MF options which is actually significant depth if everyone remain fit.
As I said in one previous post- within 2,5 seasons so far we have brought full first XI with exception of Sonny.
That is - Vicario; Porro, Romero, VdV, Udogie; Bentancur, Sarr, Maddison; Kulusevski, Richie, Son.
And on top of that some very good squad options (some starters/subs is up for debate - specially between midfield duo and attacking options) - Forster, Royal, Dragusin, Bissouma, Solomon, Johnson, Werner, Veliz
In total 19 players (!)
Now we have some room to think about future of some players like Skippy, Sessegnon, Lo Celso, PEH and Gil
But more importantly move on some - Tanguy, Dier, Regulion, Spence, Rodon, Tanganga.
In summer we need most likely one more adequate fullback, one quality midfielder and potentially quality striker/#9 + potentially 4th CB (even though I am not fully sure of it - VdV and Romero are brilliant, if Dragusin works out and we have Davies as #4 with youngsters like Philips, Dorrington and Vuskovic coming on...?) .
Keep some from "questionmark" list, keep all 19 mentioned above them and we are absolutely ROCKING.

He needs to take his balls in one hand, look in the mirror and decide what he wants to with his life, sharpish
Batman dude is a weird rubber fetishist, who has been known to wear his pants over his strides . Also goes on a bit about family tragedy , man up Batman

Not really unrealistic, the prices being quoted is about 25m Euro for each.Well have to manage europe and have greater stress on the squad (injuries etc).
What do you think we’d need in the summer?
I think we need either a striker or a forward.
Fullbacks need reinforcing.
Central midfield. Hojbjerg out and one more in.
If we could get Bardhelj and Vemeeren now but let them stay at current clubs then that would be a dream window. But that is fantasy stuff.
I can confirm some fantastic game-changing transfers did indeed happen.
u21's and HG is not included within the 8 player limitHow many players do we have away on loan if Spence goes?
Rodon, Spence, Ndombellend, Tanganga. Do the youngsters count towards the 8 player limit?
