I love that ITK trolls on Twitter aren't even making up stories about approaches anymore. "X player would be interested if Spurs contacted them."
I don't have a problem with you saying he had a poor season last season but there are obvious mitigating circumstances because he hadn't trained for like 8 months or something like that, that's obviously going to affect rhythm and performances!
This is what I mean about people only really speaking about his deficiencies, yes he carries a risk factor but so does everyone else...every player on the transfer market has flaws, whether they're too young/inexperienced, whether they've never played in the Premier League, whether they've had 1 good season and nothing else to back it up with etc...
This is what we need to be search for. Elite level talent that is capable of reaching world class levels like Sonny and Kane were together.
You don't find many Ming vase's in B&M Bargains.
He was poor for sure, didn’t score at all from August to December
We wont buy what is required, that is for sure. It is why I'm relaxed if we get Toney. Out of all the strikers we have been linked with I think he is the most likely to bang in our team. However, we havent really been linked with any attackers by anyone reputable at all. Either they dont have a sniff of our targets or we arent that far down the line with anyone.
I think if we got a serious offer in for him we'd sell. That probably goes for 80% of our squad though.

We bought Sonny for 20m
VDV for 35m
Romero 40m
It can be done but it’s very hard and you also get some crud in the same price bracket.
Obviously don’t agree on Toney but I’m with you on not expecting much in terms of forward signings.
Crazy to think there are so many forwards on the market and none of us have much faith that we will come out with an improved frontline by the end of the window. To the point where people have already resolved to squaring it with themselves if we sign Toney, a player not wanted by any the clubs we claim to be competing with.
Very difficult plucking a striker out the blue for a decent price now though. You can still do that with defenders and midfielders to a certain extent. Hojlund £70m having scored 10 goals in Serie A the season before, basically paying for potential. It looks a really slim list of potential targets if you want an out an out centre forward and if you want a good one you're looking at circa £70m.
Didn’t start playing till end of Jan. having been out for 8 months.
Sounds like half our squad the last 6-7 years, he'll fit in nicely!
(Seriously tho, they didn't play below their capacity, they were'nt better)
Always fit for Argentina. Apart from the World Cup of course. That’ll teach him
Johnson is going to have a spectacular season. Possible Player of the Year stuff.
I intend to die on this hill. Try and stop me.
Need cover for RB if Royal goes.
We’re supposedly looking at Vanderson there
