Think Chiesa is just so diminished by his injuries. Neto seems to pick up more muscle injuries, but his pace and threat when he does play is much greater. The few ideal top targets seem beyond our reach.

Donley and Devine could be kept as U21s, but need minimum 8 homegrown in 25 man squad and think we're struggling there. So Skipp likely to stay.
The famous AC Milan can’t afford to pay another €3 million to get him. Or maybe they don’t want him enough?
All Italian clubs seem to be currently skint / tight cunts / cheeky bastards.
Thanks - apologies I listed Bissouma twice, corrected OP
I’m surprised they want him at all, they can’t have been watching our preseason games

I have no issues with it as far as I can remember he does and has contributed... He was probably our best attacker for 5 of his 10 starts.
Atleast 2 or 3 times a game he will get to the by line and put in a cross.
Sonny will start and Werner is an experienced option until Moore comes of age.
Some fair points but I will die on the sword that Richarlison is not and will never be good enough for a team that are supposedly trying to compete at the top end of the league. He just has far too many weaknesses to his game.
Son is also not a striker and is not getting any younger.
We sold the best striker in the world and replaced him with no one. That point remains. We desperately desperately need to bring in a proven goalscorer this summer.
Those Non-Asians all look the same, right?
The top targets will be, they will only move to clubs who challenge and win stuff which we don't.
Or you have to pay big fees and wages, which again we are loathe to do as a club, we are second tier, the club can attract reasonably good or younger players but not the best.
Davies has one year left on his contract, I suspect he'll be happy to stay for an 11th year knowing he'll .be a back up.
He earned his coaching badges within last 12 months so may decide to transition to being a coach - maybe academy coach at Spurs who knows.
It can be made as a sale of existing shares (ie cash goes to shareholders) or a sale of new shares (ie money goes into Tottenham Hotspur) or a sale of existing shares plus a sale of new shares.
Gold's article implied at least some of shares would be new shares, but that maybe because Gold does not understand the subject
More so than Eze?
Which would be a no brainer for me from the club as a decision. Especially if the other option was forcing him to leave.
Fully agree.
He’s the only one we’ve been linked with who can cause chaos in defenses from out wide on both sides without having to cut in onto a stronger foot
OK, they're heavily restricted in how much they're allowed to spend.
Exactly the same as Newcastle, who, in theory, could pick any player they want, and if the club won't sell, buy the whole club to get him.
Everytime I watched Raphina for Barca, including once in person, he was a cut in type who played as an inside forward.
I don’t think he’s a winger these days. Maybe he was at Leeds. Chiesa and Eze are inside forwards really but Eze is also a legitimate attacking midfielder who can play #8
I haven't seen the vid as it's hypothetical transfer stuff which IMO opinion is just a waste of time, I don't get why so many of you invest all your time on this stuff.
I think Bardi has a terrible football IQ, I tend to get triggered listening to him but Nathan however is fucking excellent.
I think we should also shift Kulu if other players come in- in Ange's system he can't play wide. He's very good when he comes inside off the line but Ange doesn't really want this, he wants his wingers to hold the width so his inverted FBs play inside (sure that's a simplification, Ange will ultimately want rotation from his players). For me Kulu only really works when playing centrally as a 10, I think he's very good here, very different to Madders who likes to collect the ball deep, whereas Kulu at 10 is more a false 9 and is good at holding the ball up.
I don't know our plans for incoming players but the vibe is that we are looking for wide players and ones that are good 1v1.
Maybe Kulu can stay and give us flexibility with his versatility and something different but Johnson is a better wide player than Kulu in Ange's system. I really like him when he's central (or when we first bought him when he cut in off his line), he's also a good presser and has either the 1st or 2nd most tackles won in the final third. But he may be surplus to requirements if we get the wide players or he becomes a rotation player for 10 but as mentioned above he's not like for like with madders in #10.
