Darren Bent was and still is a total melt. Redknapp never fancied him tbh and he seemed to be more of a signing the club pushed for. Solanke has a profile that fully fits what the manager is publicly asking for and the scouting seems to be more specific. We saw from Solanke last season that he will put himself about against anyone as well. He's much more assertive and aggressive than Darren Bent ever was.
If as you say all that is true about solanke and how he fits what Ange needs why didn’t we just go for him from the off. We may have got him cheaper. Now everyone knows we are desparate for a CF. Mind boggling incompetence!

I don't know mate. How the fuck would I? I'm not an ITK. If I am guessing maybe B'muff have been spending the money first like we did with Kane last summer.

We probably need to get Richy a move as well.

If we do sign a winger and a striker like Solanke it will be because Richy is off to Saudi imo.
 
They might get creative, like a loan etc because the dippers have a 20% sell on fee.

I can see Lanskshear or Veliz going on loan as part of the deal with a lower fee next year or something.
I absolutely love the idea of Lankshear of going there on loan for a year under Iraola.

If he could get meaningful game time it'd be so perfect.
 
paris is a nice area to live is it? ive never heard anyone whos been say its a nice place and they cant wait to go back.

regardless of all that bollox. hes a young footballer thats cleaning up on the major trophies (ones that are actually respectable) why go to a dead league and halt the legacy hes building. you dont move out of the big 3 leagues if youre him. hes on course to having the greatest collection of trophies going. a load of french titles means fuck all, holds no prestige.

might as well go saudi if hes gonna go PSG.

It's a nice place, and I can't wait to go back. There, now you have.
 
Checking validity of this comment :var:



Yep

Ndombele, Lo Celso, Richy, Johnson all say hi.

Do you ever tire of being wrong?

Still awaiting your tactical analysis of David and Solanke and why neither would be a good for anges system based on their playing careers so far.

Or do you actually just not know much and watch any football outside Spurs and are just obsessed with Levy.
 
Interesting comments from ange. Mentions how 50% of the players from last year aren’t on the tour this year. Clearly wanted a huge clear out which is still ongoing. Just as important it seems to get rid of the ones he doesn’t see have a future here

Seems relaxed about transfers - from everything I am reading the club have a long term plan and only want to target a certain profile who fits exactly what he wants.

Doesn’t seem to be any panic setting in. Perhaps if they feel that certain targets aren’t achievable they will look to promote some of the youth players instead

Only panic/anger coming from the fans who have zero patience (understandably I will add)
Patience after 23years of this! Why can’t we just go out and buy quality. When we do spend big money like richi, Johnson or potentially solanke it meh. Not exactly world beaters. Now olise, eze , etc would be something.
On that subject how much would JP Maletta cost?
