I think you've been watching Billy Maddison.I really do wonder what some people are watching every week
It clearly ain't the same games that I am watching
Is it ? The Spurs version of Romero has been abjectly poor for two seasons.Danso is a good squad option. Better rotation than Dragusin.
But if we start next season with Danso at CB and Romero sold then that's a downgrade. Simple.
They are potless... if they don't win the Europa they are selling before buying. Problem for them is nobody wants any of their players becauseI would consider selling Porro if United offered silly money. Amorim obviously likes him. Spence is ready to fly.

He’d probably still start in a lot of lower table/promoted teams.It's getting debateable now as to whether he can still do a job at the elite level.
If he can't, there is no point clogging up the squad. We would be better served getting in a LB/LCB hybrid who could genuinely challenge VDV/Udogie for their places and get them to up their game.
My memory isn't what it use to be but I don't remember him being very good... but my point is, he won't be missed if he leaves this summer... there are plenty of one paced CB's, who can't concentrate, lack awareness but can ping the odd pass that we can buy to take his place.
Transfer fee paid: Friendly against Shakhtar who received 50% gate revenue (750k)Apparently Everton are interested in signing Solomon in the summer.

Everton are seriously interested in signing £15m Tottenham star this summer
Everton are now interested in signing a Tottenham forward who Daniel Levy would be willing to sell for a cut-price this summer.tbrfootball.com
I'd rather have kept Solomon here for this season instead of Werner simply for football reasons but would have saved Levy in wages too. Solomon is on £60,000 a week, Werner is on £165,000.Transfer fee paid: Friendly against Shakhtar who received 50% gate revenue (750k)
Transfer fee received: 15m
Net Transfer: 15.75m profit for Levy
Distribution of profit: 15.7m towards asset construction, 50k towards first team

hence why Solomon will be sold... to offset the Werner loss although it wasn't a total loss. Ange was able to blame him for most of October and November.I'd rather have kept Solomon here for this season instead of Werner simply for football reasons but would have saved Levy in wages too. Solomon is on £60,000 a week, Werner is on £165,000.
So he's lost £105.000 per week all season.

I think you've been watching Billy Maddison.
We were talking about James Maddison, you know the magician, the player can literally disappear in a game.
Going to be tough to recruit decent players if we have no European football and pay less than top wages, not knowing who the next manager will be, and, most of all, Levy will still be making the decisions.
I would consider selling Porro if United offered silly money. Amorim obviously likes him. Spence is ready to fly.
And yet, Maddison sees more of the ball than kulusevski, scores more, assists more, creates more (higher xa90) despite playing less minutes.
Vicario, Kinsky and Brandon fucking Austin average more of the ball per game than Kulusevski. As do 17 other players in our squad.
He’s mr fucking invisible.
