I don’t expect Toby and Eriksen to stay tbh.

Lloris
Attal —Andersen/Sanchez ——-—Jan—————-Rose
N’Dombele———-Winks
Maddison———Dele————Son
Kane
Squad players: Gazzaniga, KWP, Foyth, Aurier, Davies, Ry Sess, Berge, Dier, Sissoko, Skipp, Lucas, Lamela* Llorente**

That’s 25.

*replace if injury is serious, probably I’d buy Grealish or David Brooks and push Dele into the frontline full time as a versatile forward.

**dont mind keeping but a similarly experienced striker who has been around the block (someone a bit more mobile maybe?) would need to take his place.
I think Toby stays, not so sure on Eriksen, depends if levy can get top money for him and Poch wants to reinvest that on the Squad
 
Don't shoot the messenger here, but I took a gander at the Red Cafe this morning and they're pissing themselves laughing at the reports Levy is prepared to give Poch a '100 million warchest'. Apparently that's pittance and we fail to back Poch. Obviously they all covet Poch.

Just goes to show how expectations differ, I'd be amazed if Poch got 50 million, and only if we manage to clear some of the dead wood, or sell Eriksen:levystare:

Will it even be as much as 50m

£50m + Eriksen = 2 or 3 decent players (not up to Eriksen's level). Nah - £200m+ incoming.
:levyeyes:
 
We can talk them down to €75-80ms like the article says. That’s just shy of £70mil. Time to act like a big boy club I say. Can’t have that stadium, that training ground, be establishing ourselves in the CL and not want to reinvest in the playing squad that will keep us in that position. Speculate to accumulate.
This plus Sessegnon, Loftus-Cheek and Zaha. Cheeky offer for Ben Chilwell or Wan-Bissaka and bingo. Mind you that's £200m - £250m gone in a flash so our potential £100m war chest looks a bit empty. Problem is if we sell all our unused squad members we end up with a smaller squad and potential problems if we have a similar injury crisis next season. Who'd be a football chairman or manager eh?
 
Pochettino: 'this summer will be painful'
Levy: 'player trading will be affected by the late opening of the stadium and prolonged stay and Wembley'
 
Not in a hundred years.

Good player but his best days are behind him and has just had an awful injury.

And played for them.

Funnily enough had this debate with a mate yesterday (b4 reading this). I agreed with your point but he started to talk me round.

One advantage of him is that he’s a striker who can play on the wing rather than a winger who can play up top. Given our circumstances with Kane that would be handy.

However, would still pay the £25m or whatever it would be, for Josh King who I think would be a great squad addition and count as HG (plus a Norwegian buddy for Sander Berge 😄)
