Poulsen would be a good option of course, especially for rotation, but:
He’s likely going to be moderately expensive and he’s foreign. We cannot, under any circumstances imo, cheap out on defensive options this summer. If buying Poulsen means we have to sign a lesser quality RB or CB, it’s not a good move.

Werner is going to go to Liverpool, it’s the worst kept secret around.
Liverpool don't want to pay the release fee at the moment - they dont know how the transfer market will look. £50M for a player of his quality is great pre Corona, who knows now.
I would be genuinely surprised if Werner ended up anywhere else. He’s chatting with Klopp and being courted, Leipzig have no problem with it either, even during this coronavirus outbreak.
Who knows how this will fully impact the market but I don’t know where else he goes tbh. Maybe Bayern...I guess?
He thought he was going Munich in the summer just gone but they didn't move for him in the way he expected, that bridge may have been burnt.
He came out and said he didn’t want to play for them.
Wasn't that after they messed him around spending their time going after Sane? That's how I remember it.
I think so. He said he'd rather play abroad than play for Bayern.
Must have taken it down. It said that Spurs want to sign Coutinho on a season long loan with an option to buy.

I fucking hate this.
Don’t worry, I hate myself too.
There's nothing sad about loan to buy. It's good business.
No, no, no.. You don't understand... It would have been better to pay the mooted 50m-odd for Gedson straight off the bat.
It's all about keeping up with appearances.
Oh man! It was a typo! I meant to say "it said" not "sad"
If we want to sign say Max Aarons we're gonna have to offer cash , similarly Eze (very small amounts)
Other players we can get on FREE'S / SWAPS /LOANS so I'm not too worried
But Hopefully there is some cash
There's going to be some cash. But the club would be stupid to not plan for a worst case scenario. People tend to forget that the club has to plan for the worst whilst this is going on.
With today's market prices what money we will have available not counting money generated through sales will be more or less no cash.
