He was fucking useless for ages.It was mixed. I didn't see him in that way and lots of others didn't either. I'd take him back if he wanted to be here, because he was one of the best midfielders in the league for many years. I'd take him back depending on his motivation though. If he didn't really want it, then I wouldn't... was only wondering about it in the context of Conte, because he's just won a title under Conte this season...
Trade secret of being a long time Spurs-fanAmazing how so many refuse to believe any good news, but as soon as bad news is mentioned they instantly believe it all.
He's on the Isle of Wight, abusing Joe Lewis' yacht.
Oh great, someone that knows all about the DoF.
Plus Eriksen got a huge contract from Inter because he had 6 months left on his Spurs deal.Eriksen is also not the same player he was a couple years ago. He lost his fire. Still a good player but far from his peak
Pawning it hopefully
What's gets you so excited about the DoF?
He's overseen Juve fall season over the season in the CL whilst putting all the Clubs eggs into one basket to bring in Ronaldo with the specific target of winning CL. Who hired Pirlo and has seen them finish 4th (1st time they've not won in 10yrs) 13 points behind the leaders.
Conte is a top manager but I think he's the worst fit for Spurs than 80% of those listed in the poll.
With our new ground, and Conte to manage us, we just need about 6 new quality players and we're as good as the others. Make that 5 if Kane remains. RB CBx2 MF x2 and CF if Kane goes. Bearing in mind we still have Skip and Seggerson (if I could spell his name).If you want to know whether Conte would be a good idea, take a look at rival fan forums and see if they're shitting themselves about it.

Conte got the best out of Pogba when he was at Juventus in a 3-5-2. He may not play Ndombele, but it's hard to say one way or the other. His midfields from his last 3 gigs at Juventus, Chelsea and Inter are very different.What do you think hiring Conte means for Ndombele,I assume you are a fan as he is your avatar
No, no. no mate. Just let them all get angry at everything. Page after fucking page in every fucking thread.Amazing how so many refuse to believe any good news, but as soon as bad news is mentioned they instantly believe it all.
Conte's representatives would have asked for more than what the actually expect.
Levy would have offered less than he is actually prepared to pay.
Both parties will negotiate to middle ground where both are happy.
It's standard business that every manager and club will do daily.
If it is £3m difference, they'll settle on 1.5/2m
