I don't watch anything other than spurs. So I really don't know. The spider is from the last 365 days and looks better than Eze. So yes, my guess is that he kicked on.

What? his work rate is fantastic, and he gets stuck in.
It's mad to prefer Akiouche, he won't be anywhere near as good, plus he's playing in a much weaker french league.
Surely they just exercise the clause and buy him back from them at €10m?!
Isn’t that the whole point?
Madrid are the most powerful club on the planet on and off the pitch. If they don't want Como to sell to us, they won't.
Not exactly a club you want to piss off. They can kiss goodbye ever getting favourable deals done by them for starters.
Don’t need a favor
They aren’t at woolwich anymore and football is a business. If we pay the number, we can get Paz.
The kid is on less than €500k per year….
The clause has expired for this year.
It's active next Summer and again in 2027.
I wish we’d pick a realistic target rather than chasing the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow!
No. The clause for this summer has expired.
They only have a clause to buy him back from Como for 10 million for a certain few weeks of next summer.
However if Como choose to sell Paz, Madrid can't do anything about it. They just receieve a sell on fee.
They signed Mastantuono in his position this summer and had to register him as an academy player because they don’t space to register him in the first team squad,
Alonso is in love with Guler as well.
Imo Real would take the money from the sell on clause if it was enough.
Real Madrid should fire their lawyers if that’s the case!
It pains me to say it but really don't think we'll get either of them
Why is a 21 year old, on peanuts, in a tiny club suddenly unrealistic because he’s had a good game?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but pretty sure you are more au fait with the rights and wrongs, pluses and negatives of PSR than I am, but as I understand it we are 300m in the Black, as long as we don't exceed 105m in the Red over the next 3 years, which I'm fairly sure Enic never would, we could still comfortably afford a Savinho and Paz this window, to back an impressive Thomas Frank, especially with a few loans out and the odd transfer out?
Calling it as I see it.
He may TRY hard and put the effort in, but there is an issue with speed and dynamism in his game that doesn't click with me when thinking of him here in the prem and in this team.
If he comes I'd hope I was wrong tho.
If we do buy another player he has to be on it from the off; can't afford anymore prospects that need work.
A kid only beginning his second season... I dunno... weighing it all up as I see it, I'd prefer akliouche.
More dynamic, more experienced, versatile.
It feels like it is all to predictable.
When we got players in early, I though, this good, maybe he has realised a few things. But since MWG went tits, and through no real fault of his own, other than going in exact price of the release clause, it's like he has fallen back into bad habbits and spends far to much time dicking around again.
And it is so frustrating. The stadium, the charity work, the training facilities are all great great things that he has done, but where it matters, getting players in etc, he just constantly f**ks it up.
And if does go tits up, then I don't want no last minute panic buys, loading the squad with mediocre trash that bloats the squad and leads to a ton issues further down the line.
??? If we meet Como's asking price, they will sell and Madrid can't do anything about it.
The only influence Madrid have, is being in his ear telling him he has a future at Madrid, if they decide to do that. But Madrid are stacked in that position.
Como's choice is keep Paz for this season, but then lose him back to Madrid for 10 million next summer. Or sell Paz this summer to us for say 60 million, and pocket half of the fee. Rest goes to Madrid.
But the player has to agree to the move.
Is he for the sake of a year going to blow probably his dream move to Madrid, not likely
