There are not question marks around GLC's attitude generally. He's had fitness issues but hopefully he is over those. He tends to be one of our better players when fit.
He played a major role in Argentina's Copa America win while Ndombele was at home making full use of his Deliveroo premium account. Sissoko was in the French squad ahead of him ffs.
There are simply no excuses left for Ndombele. He's been in training since July 1st with a clean slate and a new manager to impress. He's failed to play a single minute yet Skipp has played almost all of them after a broken ankle. GLC and PEH have featured despite playing deep into international competitions. He's not a serious player and we need to cut our losses asap.
If Nuno is going to play a 3 in midfield, wether that be a 433 or 352, I think that’s our best option right now.
Think he will be good back up striker.
If we can keep Harry and tie him down to a new contract, plus get this Martinez, it would be an incredible window. Obviously we still need to sort out the rest of the defence. We have to mend the relationship with Harry, forgive and keep him for at least another season. Fuck City off!!!
Whos that Woolwich fan on sky earlier still going on about st totteringhams day. That was 7 years ago. Played you on sunday and still beat you without a striker. Woolwich are shit end of.
He's a real tank!
Twice I've had to say this now, I'm NOT grumpy or pissed off. I am at a loss as to why Spurs fans are sucking the shlong of Abramovoic though!!!
I'm ONLY and have ONLY rebuffed the notion that as the other poster specifically said that they've been brilliant because they have a "winning formula". That's absolute bollocks, the formula is they have one person (their owner) spunk the largest sum of money ever (£1.7b) into the Club as an interest-free loan, that will almost certainly never be repaid. That's it. There's nothing clever with what they've done, the club hasn't built an academy that feeds their first 11 with Talent, they hire the same managers as us, go after the same players as us, have the same DoF as us. They've not disrupted the game because they've created something sensational, they've just spunked £1.7b they have never ever earned.
Yet you and the other guy seem to be pushing back on this every time. Why?
IMO it's not more interesting since Chavs came along. It's been a closed shop between Chavs, Utd., Woolwich and now latterly City. This closed shop has come about because of the PL, prior to the PL, the First Division was far more movement from year to year (with the obvious exception of Liverpool dominance of the 70's/80's). Utd, Spurs, Villa, Forrest all getting relegated, with 2 of those teams winning the League and European Cup.
Since the formation of the PL there have only been 7 winners in the past 29yrs with only 2 coming from clubs outside the big 6 (Blackburn 26yrs ago! & Leicester a freak 5000-1!). Prior to the PL there were 15 clubs that had won in the last 34yrs of the old First Div, with 8 of those Clubs not from today's big 6!
I also don't see any drastic change to the top 6 either (City, Man U, Chavs, Liverpool, Spurs, Woolwich) in the years to come as still these clubs dominate the revenue of the other sides and are structured to maintain this hold. But within this small band of Clubs at the upper scale, there is Utd richest Club in the World, City 2nd most dopped Club in the World & will be in richest 3rd in the world if you calculate City Group as a whole, Chavs most doped club in the World, LFC 4th largest fanbase in the World, these revenues dwarf ours and Woolwich (2nd most supported club in the Wolrd), making 50% of the elite England clubs dopped clubs.
‘Tottenham said no’: Romano says Spurs rejected chance to include £57m star in deal for Kane
Tottenham reportedly turned down Aymeric Laporte in Manchester City’s attempt to sign Harry Kane earlier in the summer window.

Caveat being how much cash were they prepared to pay on top.....?
My gut would be they offered both players and zero cash with a view of it equating to 100m..... Which is kinda what was rumoured six weeks ago.... I'd also suggest that over-prices both players....
Laporte 40-50m
Jesus 25-30m
I think it's the last chance saloon for Ndombele for sure, but I would like to give him that one last opportunity under a coach like Nuno who will be focussing on getting him fit more than Mourinho.
And yes, I know Mourinho broke lockdown rules to go to his flat and help him train, but overall the squad wasn't as fit as it should have been.
One last opportunity? If he won't make enough of an effort to impress a new coach who uses as system that would probably be a huge benefit to the player, then what more needs to be seen. That should be his last opportunity. He doesn't give a flying fuck about playing at a top level.
"A £54m signing back in 2018 according to BBC Sport, Laporte is one of the top defenders in the Premier League. And last season the Spanish international was demoted to the bench at City following the form of John Stones".‘Tottenham said no’: Romano says Spurs rejected chance to include £57m star in deal for Kane

A player that sits on the bench behind John Stones is not the definition of "one of the top defenders in the PL". (I like both Stones and Laporte BTW, Laporte in my eyes is better). You simply can't be the "best" at something if you don't even play for your team.
He's good
He looks good
That would be the most horrible signing - and I'm a Dane.
His end product is horrendous!
