I would differentiate between Isak & Vlahovic compared to Hlozek.The problem is we have no idea. We could buy Isak and Scarlett may end up the next Harry Kane with Isak the next Soldado. If it were me, I'd go for that young Czech kid Hlozek, get Ings to fill in for a couple of years, and hope in the meantime one of Hlozek or Scarlett develop into a really good striker.
BTW, I'm walking around the Eden project with the family then driving 8-9 hours to get home so won't be playing with the phone much...See, I'm not too harsh.
Paratici is a busy man. Not a bad fee for his age.
With Toby gone and Sanchez seemingly out the door, two top CBs are surely coming in (this doesn't include Tomiyasu).
I reckon Don Fab gets the Kounde/Sanchez swap over the line.
Romero: £40m
Kounde: £30m plus Sanchez
70m outlay and get rid of Sanchez to land those two would be incredible.
Rodon, Tanganga as deputies with Dier 5th choice if we cant sell him. Not bad.
It's just a gentle reminder to all that my trusted journalists are reliableI don't feel like I've lost a bet
Fair, do it aftersBTW, I'm walking around the Eden project with the family then driving 8-9 hours to get home so won't be playing with the phone much...
You mean the Leeds United approach? No thanks.We should have been making this sort of bet more often under Poch (buy players, wins stuff to pay for them) and we never really did.
The amount of money we make from getting into the Champions League, combined with the sort of players that we would be in position to attract, as well as the sponsorship opportunities, would make up for selling Kane for £70m rather than £120m.
Massively - Levy should have lobbied Lewis to lend the club £300M in 2015/18 and gone balls deep. We could have secured CL, titles etc and it would have paid for itself short term and medium termWe should have been making this sort of bet more often under Poch (buy players, wins stuff to pay for them) and we never really did.

He who will not learn from past mistakes is doomed to repeat them.
Went there last year. Torrential rain in August, got soaked we all hated it. Enjoy!BTW, I'm walking around the Eden project with the family then driving 8-9 hours to get home so won't be playing with the phone much...
Not against Seri A centerbacks he didn't this is a very good young player. Lets be clear no one on earth is Harry kane but this kid could be a different kind of special and he is already twice the player Jansen was.Jansen had a decent showreel
There's a good reason why Man City - and other "big" clubs - are after Kane rather than Vlahovic. You may be right that it wouldn't matter whether Kane or Vlahovic would spearhead Spurs' attack next season as then, of course, you would be right.That's fine if we can't get in the top four without Kane but with Vlahovic.
I mean we could sell Kane now for £150m if we get a buyer, then buy Vlahovic , and still get in the top 4 and be better off financially and in the same league position.
Of course we can't predict where we will end up in the league next season but I don't think it will make much difference who are CF is out of those two. So it would be worth a try to pull it off, and have £50m that we otherwise would not have,
Unless Kane is going to stay for a long time other than one more year.
But chilly but relief from the heat in Cornwall all week.Went there last year. Torrential rain in August, got soaked we all hated it. Enjoy!

37 matches 21 goals last season for Vladovic, we can't outbid City for top players so we have to snap them up early doors.There's a good reason why Man City - and other "big" clubs - are after Kane rather than Vlahovic. You may be right that it wouldn't matter whether Kane or Vlahovic would spearhead Spurs' attack next season as then, of course, you would be right.
But, if we could predict that (i.e. that Vlahovic would have the same contribution as Kane coming season) then he would have been snapped up by Man City or Chelski or Man U anyway.
With Kane one is guaranteed 30+ goals in all competitions.
I honestly don't think people actually understand what happened in the 5 or so years at Leeds in the late 90s/early 2000s. Not to mention a significantly different financial environment today.Is this irony/sarcasm?
