Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

How are the Ceballos links looking over there Bill? Does it seem like a genuine goer that is purely loan only? How is he rated at Real? He seems like a classy player but I'm always dubious of players that didn't need hack it at a club even if that club is Real Madrid.
There's next to nothing in Marca and not a lot in As beyond this, which is all stuff you've read already (Pochettino guaranteeing him 40 games next season, which sounds like crap to me)

“I want to play 40 games per season and have a key role”

Nothing at all in the two Barcelona-based sports papers.

My view of him is that he's very good in bursts and near-invisible at others. I was talking to an old Madrid fan and a young Atleti fan on Thursday, they both said the same thing. I'm guessing that would be the "standard line" here.
 
Maradona now? Or prime Maradona?
How about prime Madonna?

I’m not the biggest fan, but if we need a replacement for Toby you’d want someone with PL experience


They are making this sh!t up honestly. Complete crud.

Once again it's the need to have targets and get it over the line.

Van Dijk and Maguire are providing s blue print to how the papers think clubs want it done.

Ake simply fits the bill and suddenly it's 40 million. Fcuk it why not 50 million.

Honestly the prices for players and what even relatively average ones now get paid MENTAL.

What about Evan N'Dicka from Eintracht Frankfurt as a long term replacement for Vertonghen? He's a left footed CB who is only 19 years old but is a first teamer playing for the team who finished 7th and gave up the 5th fewest goals in the Bundesliga last year. Surely we can pay N'Dicka more than whatever EF is, and he can learn from one of the best in the game until he's ready to take over for Jan. Plus he's French so I doubt he has any real loyalty to staying in Germany. N'Dicka's footage shows that he's super physical, so he'll fit right in with the PL. A lot of his tackles look a bit rash, but he got 0 red cards in 2300 minutes. Pry him away for 20 million pounds now and don't be forced to pay 80 million pounds for a proven LCB in 2 years when Vertonghen is past it.

Hope the apostrophe doesn’t stand for an ‘o’

Seriously is this N prefix a way to signal for spurs to bid?

Good shout

I have a suggestion for a Toby replacement too, right sided young centre half and also playing in the Bundesliga


Koch - N'Dicka as a centre back partnership. Hell yeah
