Transfers January 2022 - Transfer Window

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

No point?

Subject to any of them pulling their finger out we may be best served to bin Ndombele, GLC, Winks, Dele and maybe even PEH in the summer.

2 good quality CMs for free would be epic business considering we'll need to spend heavily to obtain the necessary CB and attacking quality too.
Fair enough I guess. Brozovic and Kessie kinda present a luxury version of our problem fitting both PEH and Skipp in the same 3-5-2.

At 29 there’s also the question of how much tread is left on Brozovic’s tires. I trust Conte to understand that better than we could.

Getting to the front of the queue for free transfers of this quality is good work by Paratici in any event.

That's not really the problem though......

The 3rd man is the quandry (vs not being able to play 343 instead). Ndombele is the closest thing we have to a creative MF force but his defensive workrate needs to be supplemented; hence the requirement for us to play Skipp AND PEH atm.

That said; where's the downside in upgrading both of them for free?

Brosavic also brings a degree of playmaking ability that neither PEH or Skipp currently offer. He also comes pre-schooled in Conte-ball too.

Skipp, Brosovic, Kessie, Sarr.... + PEH, Ndombele or any additional players brought in to add that creative element is a significant overall upgrade surely?

Flipside.... Peeps are always demanding experience and winners.

Dunno what his injury record is like, mind.......

It’s tempting to say that because his fellow golden generation Croatian midfielders are all ageless warhorses that he will be too, but who knows.

Btw, does Modric want to keep playing? I was only half kidding when I suggested him as player-manager during the shitshow this summer.
 
I'd take Rudiger on a free, quality and already Conte'd. I know there was that (non) incident, but I don't think that'd be an issue. If he wants to stay in London and Chelsea don't give him the deal he wants ,we'd have a chance of getting him I reckon.
 
oblak is an interesting one, unrealistic as hell but yet contract ends 2023, for me he is the best goalkeeper on the planet, what a coup that would be

20 mill release for that kid in argentina alvarez?

options are limitless

That Zagadou at Dortmund looked like a beast in the making, he not developed?

Brereton worth it as HG squad buy? (alongside Vlahovic or Schick to replace Harry)
Injuries took the toll on his development. He's still only 22 so he could still become a quality CB...if he recovers his fitness...
