ochfacepalm:
If we were going to sign Berahino I imagine it would have been made part of the Chadli deal?
Can't see it.
It will be Nkoudou and Lopez (if we are lucky). Even then I am extremely sceptical, even with the training ground picture.
We have signed Wanyama and Janssen, but we've lost three back-up, reliable players in Bentaleb, Mason and Chadli. Imagine what happens if we get hit by some injury crisis.So everyone pretty much agreed that the two positions that we definitely needed to strengthen were cover for Dier/Dembele and Kane..........we then signed exactly that early in the window for very reasonable fees
But now the narrative is that we have left our transfers to the end of the window
The same people that bemoan late transfer activity also complain about no late transfer activity.....
Sissoko and Zaha just strike me as players that aren't tested by their manager to be better. Which could show a lack of desire for them to be better or just that they need someone to push them.
Weve seen a motivated Sissoko. If he was motivated and pushed to his maximum every week by Pochettino it'd be a no brainer in terms of signing him but it'll be a gamble. Same could be said for Zaha. Maybe he's just comfortable earning his money and knowing he'll get minutes in the Premier League. Maybe Pochettino feels he can push him to the next level and motivate him to achieve alot more. The talent is there.

There's something wrong when after a shite season for Newcastle, regarded by their fans as the laziest player in the squad, you can be upgraded to Spurs playing in the CL.
They were three of the players that were picking up injuries over the last two seasons.....
Ok I get your point but before they departed they were fit so they could help the team in case something goes wrong.
When Wednesday nights away to Preston and Burton Albion loomed, yes.
Isco will end up at City if he actually moves. Money talks.
I think Real would try to avoid selling to a team they view as competition for the CL.
He has the ability to be world class, it's just his attitude. Similar to Adebayor.

Vardy to the scum was like 1/4 at one point
Sissoko would be a terrific cover / alternative to Dembele - if Poch thinks he can keep him motivated. That'd be my only question (and it's a big one). Talent and in terms of fitting a need, he's perfect.
One good game I recall
And also being a player who talks about how much he loves Woolwich
Your figures don't add up mate.
