I'm not sure that list is what people should follow. When I see Gvardiol being 16th on the list I have to laugh honestly. He's miles better than Davies and he is left CB in that system, perfect role for gim. He's been playing LB for some time in his career.
If you ask me, I would buy Torres as someone who will replace Dier and Gvardiol someone will rrplace Davies. But that's just a dream. Experience and young talent mixed.
I can’t remember exactly when it happened but at some point last year or the year before I started to really dislike him.
Double standards but it probably stemmed from him being a cunt to us on the pitch.
Yea LB/LWB (if he could even fill that role) really is on the lower end of our priority list. And as you said it would mean we’d completely give up on Sess. He hasn’t played in a spurs shirt often but I do think there is still a player there, so I’m all for giving him some time.
Still stand by that Digne would have an immediate impact on the squad though.
I think it came from that reddit aggregate post which was based on his twitch stream
I doubt anyone we sign is starting a match within a few days, though the Son situation could potentially necessitate it.
I like Tanganga but an beginning to wonder if he’s got it in him to be more than a defensive RB in a flat back 4, and even then not as good as Emerson who is the same age. Meanwhile the Kulusevski links please me as he’s at least someone with a final ball in him, though there’s always scepticism about Italian league attackers being up to PL pace.
Harsh on Davies who has done well there and much more experienced there too.
Good player, bit of a cheat though (admittedly his Robbie Savage hair probably skews my view) but while he has skill and an engine, does he have the killer ball we’re desperate for?
Tottenham want to sign Todd Cantwell
Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur are competing with Leeds United and Newcastle United for Norwich City midfielder Todd Cantwell.www.hitc.com
Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur are competing with Leeds United and Newcastle United for Norwich City midfielder Todd Cantwell, according to The Sun.
The British tabloid has claimed that Tottenham, Newcastle, Leeds, AS Roma and Leicester City all are interested in signing Cantwell from Noreich in the January transfer window.
The Canaries are willing to sell the 23-year-old now, but they want £15 million in transfer fees.
WOULD TODD CANTWELL MAKE TOTTENHAM BETTER?
In our view, Cantwell would be a good signing for Tottenham, especially for £15 million.
The 23-year-old knows the Premier League and has done relatively well for the Canaries in the division.
Moreover, Cantwell is quite young, so there is room for improvement and development in his game.
The former England Under-21 international has made five starts and three substitute appearances in the Premier League for the Canaries so far this season.
Cantwell – described as “an exceptional, exceptional player” by former Norwich striker Chris Sutton on BBC Radio 5 Live in June 2020 – has scored six goals in 45 appearances in the Premier League so far in his career.
Tottenham could do with more dynamism in their midfield, and, in our view, Cantwell would not be a bad option to have for head coach Antonio Conte.
In other news, 'Bit of a nark': Jamie Carragher has just tweeted about £8m Liverpool playe
Potentially accurate, but I would see the logic for LCB in that Conte has had Davies as an overlapping centre back and getting very far forward from the position. Digne has more pace and better delivery (as well as a shot on him) so there could be substance to the idea. Also a leader and very experienced in this league.
All supposition on my part though, and have we even been linked?
No, not directly. Rumours only said 3 PL clubs interested in him
I think it does though.
It's very relevant to your post, read back if you don't remember
In your first post you said 'Honest question.... Do you genuinely think it's feasible that our defence is made up solely of 50m components?
Then reeled of a list of defenders we bought, everything said since is a natural progression from that post.
What players have you in mind that clubs would want that we could move in some sort of deal that would get us better in return .I think you are correct in the loan idea just the players I am thinking about .
HITC doesn't have journos, it's just kids living in their mums house pumping out 12 bullshit articles a day.
Should they just not bother then?
We want to improve the team don't we, it is worth exploring every avenue.
I would be open to trading any of our players apart from Lloris dependant on the deal (incoming player)
You would think Paratici has good contacts too which make it more viable
You're wrong... It's been explained why in significant detail too.
My mentio of VDV vs your rambling about Bentley, Pav, Soldado, Lamela.....
= Defenders???? WDF?
You clearly don't even know what you're arguing about...... Get a grip; pay attention or stop replying.
Absolute piss-take.
Question for everyone…..
If Everton were willing to take 5m + Sess for Digne would you do it?
LWB isn’t top of our priority list but Digne is a fucking brilliant player and he’s available.
Should we be opportunistic and look to get him in at that sort of price?
PS for those asking if he could play LCB the answer is 100% no.

Some of those 1st teamers may be sold. I am NOT saying they will be sold but Sanchez is most probably one of them. And understudies Carter-Vickers and Rodon (I know they've hardly played for Spurs) will be sold, which leaves Spurs with Tanganga and Davies (if Spurs do get a new LCB) only as backup.
Conte will most probably stick with Romero and Dier plus a new LCB.
Besides, if you had read the whole post you would have seen I did not say it was a priority and it was just a suggestion not an insistence at all (to buy Oxford)
Fab's fishing for clicks, there isn't a snowball in hell's chance that Pau will sign for us in January.
Yep, The Sun is at it. He's defo been struggling to live up to his early promise (when he was valued at around £40m), and I am not sure if he'd fit into Conte's formation.
Leicester join chase for Cantwell transfer with Norwich holding out for £15m fee
LEICESTER have joined the host of clubs considering a January swoop for Norwich’s Todd Cantwell. The Canaries want around £15m for Cantwell, whose contract expires in the summer. Liverpool, Tottenh…

Cantwell, 23, fell out of favour under former Carrow Road boss Daniel Farke after failing to regain form following back and Achilles problems.
The Norfolk-born local lad has not managed to find the back of the net this season, nor provide an assist.
New head coach Dean Smith has given the academy graduate two starts since replacing Farke.
But his future appears to lie elsewhere and the right offer could see him leave in the coming weeks to make a fresh start.
Sanchez isn't a "first teamer"; he's just currently understudying for Romero.
