Didn't know we where linked?
McGinn is the perfect replacement for Mason, although I'd be happy if Mason remained. I agree Nabil and Carroll can both fuck off.
I'm surprised so many on here rate Onomah. His performances have been worse than the Mason, Carroll, Bentaleb trinity. I'd sell Onomah but I can't imagine anyone buying him.
After the injury, Jese was absolutely awful for them. But has talent no doubt
I'd say Onomah has more promise than McGinn. He's just played a role in the U19 Euro Championships for England.
We aren't linked with Jese, he just looks on the out at Madrid
I've not seen anything special of him in his limited appearances.
Even the 'hold it in the corners' pre-goals Kane stood out...
McGinn's an actual international who had our own Eriksen in his back pocket during a man of the match display on his debut. Unfortunately Onomah does not come close to McGinn's ability, both in proven and subjective terms.
You also think we should be signing some Scottish kid that we've never scouted because it's too far down the talent pyramid for even Pleaty to consider that league as football.
If you can't see what Pochettino sees in Onomah, then you may need to start asking questions of yourself, as there are very good reasons Onomah keeps getting serious minutes.
Don't be too quick to let Carroll go.
We might always want him as our sweetheart.
I thank you.

It would be nice if he would show those reasons during those minutes.
It's the emperor's new clothes with Onomah. He's shite but the majority just want to believe in his future. I'm sure a psychologist could explain what is going on
He's scottish.....
Josh is quite good at both passing and pressing as Pochettino requires, and shows a good ability to link up play between midfield and attack. He can make dangerous passes to attacking players in good positions, and showed considerably greater ability to press correctly and maintain his position than either Mason or Carroll did last year. He was also much better than either of them again today.
United are seemingly about to pay £120m for a box to box midfielder - I think we are signing (well) and selling (poorly) below the market based on current quoted figures.
The transfer fees flying around at the moment are ridiculous, but lets be honest, even in this market we'd be lucky to get £8m for Fazio!
Counter-productive in my case......he went straight on ignore as soon as he started the thread about him

The combined fees for Fazio, Pritchard and Bentaleb mentioned are £27m, don't think that's too unrealistic personally - even decent Championship players are transferring for £10m+ now.
I think we as Spurs fans are a bit behind the curve (not a bad thing), but transfer fees are way in excess of what we are used to seeing as reasonable - getting players like Alli for £5m skews our collective reality imo.
With those three going i think it's obvious we will buy more. One or two players. And 10£M for Nabs it's a good deal for the club who buys him. I see him triving in italian football.
Would like to see him at Roma or napoli
