Who would want to win this dressing room?
Welcome to football
Would be happy with the following:
Robinson (Fulham) - £30m
Locatelli (Juve) - £35m plus Dragusin
Ndiaye (Everton) - £35m plus Richie
think this puts our squad in a lot stronger position. Cover/competition for Udogie. Progressive deep lying defensive midfielder- paired with Gray/Berg for most teams or Bents/Palhinha for tougher games. Genuinely skilful threat down the left or cover for Kudus.

I reckon this is pointed at Tel, Odobert and Sarr. Possibly even Simons if we could get back most of what we paid for him. Don’t think he’s overly keen on any of them.
In fairness to him, if we got £25m back for Tel and Odobert, maybe £30m for Sarr and close to what we paid for Simons. I’d probably agree with him.
That would be a tremendous window. The first two are gettable in this window. I think Ndiaye would be really hard to get out of Everton in January though. I reckon they’d want £70m minimum. They are interested in Johnson though, so maybe that could leveraged in our favour.
There’s never been especially strong links to Ndiaye in the media though, which makes me think he isn’t particularly high on our list. Reckon Diomande’s option A, and Savinho’s Option B.
I think it’s just that he’s come from a club who know how to work the market to one under levy that had meandered down a road that didn’t. He probably looked at us from west london in the past and saw a club rubbish at selling players. Doubt he’s the only one, the whole of European football would have seen it.
Nailed it, pal.
Remember for years a whole raft of losers on here blabbing "Ooohh but who's gonna come here and keep the bench warm for Harry Kane wah wah wah"
When what we needed was some serious quality to compete with Harry Kane
Obviously we winged it for years with Harry instead of spending the money.
Harry spent around 30% of his Spurs career on the treatment table.
And we Ultimately came up short in every single competition we entered during his time at the club.
If the re-branded ENIC are even half serious these "Try now pay later" Levy specials need to end. Right now.
I wonder if we see MM as the future left winger?
We probably do, him and Luca W-B, but they are a good few years away from making that spot their own. Neither ready to be consistent in the league & cups.
RKM - here until the summer but i dont think he will be signed
Tel - Personally, I see a lot in him, Good mentality, good technicals - but he needs regular minutes either here or out on loan, where he will get more
Odobert - Needs prem minutes and more performances like Man Utd and that cameo Vs. Palace
Richy - no thanks at LW
We need a real top quality LW in January. Someone who moves the needle from what we have right now.
I have to disagree here , we have never been able to sell him before as he was always injured , I’d be playing RKM as the striker now and Richie out on the left and see how he does in his preferred position as he looked incredible versus PSG and I’d like to see if he can do that when he doesn’t have a point to prove against his parent club so to speak.
Sarr is not going anywhere , was one of our best players at the start of the season until his best friend got murdered
86 mill and it's a gamble???
This is insanity
The striker market is dry, this guy has proved nothing and is scoring goals in a piss poor Portuguese league. So many forwards have flopped after leaving that league.
Savinho strikes me as just another expensive potential flop.
I’d steer well clear.
I doubt Radu would be sold this window so soon after returning from long term injury.
I agree with the rest, but I’d like to see what Radu can do at centre back in a non-kamikaze system.

As much as we do already have a lot of other young players in his position, that there is why I think we’d be daft to write him off purely based on his age. You’re talking about a potentially generational talent here. Someone who could go on to be one of the very very top players in the game.
Erm is an interjection not a conjunction.You do understand that slavery was abolished in the UK in 1772? That means you can’t actually sell anyone without their consent.
I guess you missed the class on contract law while you were groping your way to a third grade education and starting sentences with conjunctions.
I assume Moore, not Melia?
If so yeah probably but I’d wager he’s still got a few years to go. It would very much fit how we operate though.
