Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Malcom RW, Lucas LW, Eriksen in the middle and Kane upfront would be fantastic.

Imagine not having to deal with the frustration of watching Dele Alli's Lukaku-esque first touches anymore that ruins our attacking build ups game in game out.
 
Is that right?

Well waddya know. There was a poster on here, popular lad, who suggested Zaha was on 25-40k a week and Moura 120-140k.

Can't quite remember his name. He like maggots though. Ate them breakfast, lunch and dinner.

If they want to keep him till the Summer, fair enough, but we should get the deal done now. He might get into Brazil's WC squad, have a big tournament and attract bigger money. Levy's gotta put in a 30 mill cash bid plus some extra in installments, and give a bit of money under the table to the chairman. The player wants to come but, good on him, he's not prepared to do a Walker or Rose and start some agitating or shenanigans.
The article specifically states Bordeaux won't do a deal now, even a loan back. A real shame but they are clearly switched on to his rising value.

I love reading that he was impressed with Pochettino's plans. Poch basically said he will turn Malcom into a top European star within three years. The guy is a big draw to our club, no doubt about it.

(Assuming it's all true and not fictional bullshit in the article)
 
Carrasco is available - should definitely be prioritised over Moura/Malcom IMO.
————Vic——-Winks
Carrasco-Eriksen-Son/Sessegnon
————Kane———

For me, that additional width would be the difference between challenging for the top 4 and the title. Having an orthodox winger on the left would neutralise Davies’ slight (and only) weakness of pace in supporting the attack.
 
We need players who only need one or two touches to make something happen. Fast football is what breaks teams down, at the moment we are wayyyyyy to slow. I'd be looking at another CM as well as lucas. Think malcom will come in the summer.

On the other hand......

------------------------Lloris------------------
-----Aurier ---Toby ---Jan ---Rose/Davies
--------------------Wanyama--------------------
-------------Dele-------------------Eriksen
Moura-------------Kane-------------Son

.....looks really nice.

Add in a bench of:

Vorm, Sanchez, Dier, Lamela, Malcom, Winks, KWP/any other fullback

And we look really strong.
Think Dembele and Sissoko might leave this summer and lamela might too. I hope the latter doesn't but who knows.
 
Sessegnon, Lucas, and Malcom would be lethal and would greatly complement our transition into the new stadium. However, I feel we should be looking for another CM as it seems like most of our CMs are the ones that are linked with moves away in the summer. Particularly, Dembele and Sissoko and that's not including Lamela. In the summer, we should ring up Ajax's number and take a look at Frenkie De Jong. He's the one that could be a top top player in world football.
