Yes please.
I don't think we could realistically do better than this for another 8. Hes known as a dm but this guy can play.
Knowing frank I can see why we would be interested. His mid range passing especially over the top/through balls/switches of play are excellent.
Hes very slight though so hes no guarantee to succeed in the pl. But partnered with palhinha he would thrive. He similar in style to vitinha.
As I said i think realistically with the funds were likely to have this is as good of an option as we could hope for.
Can't every see him making it as a lone 6 in the pl though? Unless it was for a very dominant team (city etc) In a 4231 yes but it don't think we could use him at the base of a midfiels 3 like we would palhinha.

They're probably in a position to turn down offers at this point having just sold Kerkez and Huijsen, they have their work cut out rebuilding their defence so unlikely to sell off their most productive player of last season as well.
Good move for him. Should play loads.
Id prefer this guy to fermine.
That would be the main concern, yes, his small frame
Yeah I’m not into Levy this or ENIC out but he can fuck right off with that interview
I think all of the Barcelona midfielders (even the bench players) are fantastic, but they’re used to being on teams that dominate the ball.
You don’t get a player like Fermin or Casado if you don’t intend to dominate possession.
What’s our plan here?
What's a plan?
And for those like Ed Vanderlay talking about prestige.... Champions League is the prestige of modern day football, a competition we have qualified for more consistently under ENIC than at any other time in our entire history by a long long way.
This is exactly how that lost weekend I had withc'mon daniel that double hit of kudus and mgw was so sweet. give us another big signing soon! all will be forgiven!

Insta of Palhinha’s tackles, now if he does this for us!

great kid, buzzing for him
I think they can. My prediction is they'll finish in the top 3 this season and could be a title contender next season. Don't forget this past year was under a new coach and they're a very young team. I hate their guts, but sadly they'll be competing for top honors in all comps.
I disagree with your summary on several points.
The Spurs squad that went into the 92 / 93 season, the first season of the Premier League, was not as bad as you suggest.
The side was in transition and finished 8th in the Premier League and reached the semi final of the F.A. Cup.
There was plenty to get hold of at this stage. The new signings; Teddy Sheringham, Neil Ruddock and Darren Anderton had all hit the ground running and the emergence of Sol Campbell and Nick Barmby from the youth team had turned everything around.
We lost the F.A. Cup semi to Woolwich and tbh we were robbed by some shit refereeing in that game.
They went on and won both the domestic cups; Sugar sacked Venables and Ruddock demanded a transfer.
This was the start of a pattern we became used to under Sugar and it continued under ENIC.
94/95 season was very similar.
Several great signings from the 94 World Cup, finished 7th in the league and again lost an F.A, Cup semi final to Everton; having beaten Liverpool, in the quarter final, at Anfield.
The decade of despair was from 95 - 05.
Spurs were still credible until 95. Woolwich were actually shite as well by 95 but then appointed Wenger and we went in opposite directions.
Campbell leaving for N5, in 01, being the low point.
Sugar did not understand football and didn't like football people in general in my opinion.
He was the wrong man for Spurs and ENIC are just Sugar's methods with a bit more luck and a slightly better idea about what they are doing.
Levy has had better luck and judgement regarding some of the people he has hired to administer the football operation at Spurs than Sugar did.
Sugar fucked up regarding the timing of sacking Terry Venables; appointed Ossie Ardiles at the wrong time and gave Gerry Francis too much money to spend. Gross was just a disaster without his English speaking right hand man. The media took him apart.
By the time Sugar appointed Geroge Graham he was getting desperate.
Levy didn't get it right until the Arnesen / Jol appointments.
The ten years in the wilderness changed THFC.
It's been jam tomorroiw ever since.

Any of the levy lovers won’t answer it as they would never dare criticise their glorious leader.
Sycophantic baboons.

My motto is fags and weed, glue and speed, but I draws the line at crack. That way, everyone knows where they stand.
Actually Southampton were sniffing about when Poch was their manager. After Mitchell joined Spurs we went for him.
