Do you think he still has a lot to offer or would he be more on the retirement contract/reduced role part of his career?

I would wonder if he was looking for a similar move like Ramos/Thiago were he goes to a big club but at a reduced role.

If not his quality is certainly intriguing.

Dunno, he's only 29...

To be honest, I think the "news" is a bit rubbish, Flo is playing to the gallery. The players not in that Gang of Five include people like Nacho and Casemiro, who Madrid would be mad to sell

Rodon seems incredibly average and only really championed by the Welsh members of the forum.

Which is understandable given that he's probably 4th on the list of famous Welshmen, behind Bale, Woosnam, and Kinnock.

Reported for racism!

Bristol bum head - home of the shitty accent and Stephen lanky twat Merchant.

:tobyarm:


You normally post well so I’ll forgive it along with your nonsense opinion on Rodon. Don’t turn into Igula mark two. This place only needs one prick like that.

By most reports Tomiyasu spent more time playing CB than RB for Bologna the past few years and has been playing as CB in the Olympics for Japan. With the combination of shifting to RB and switching leagues and levels of cups there is every reason to think Tomiyasu could have an adjustment period to Spurs, especially coming in late with no pre-season. Even if you like the tactic of having him staying back there is a big risk/question about his effectiveness as a first team RB.

I think having a RW that might not be better than Bergwijn/Lucas but has more goalscoring ability would likely be an improvement based on what we need, but I think we can get someone who is clearly better overall and a better goal threat.

People need to chill.

It's not like going to a restaurant on the Buenos Aires waterfront and ordering an asado with all the trimmings, dulce de leche for desert and a cheeky bottle of fine Malbec to wash it all down with.

There's been some form of short-term 'softening' due to covid, but FFP still a thing.

Did you not see what happened to City last year? .....They're still under investigation by the EPL now.

Chavs got a transfer ban not too long ago for breaking rules related to youth recruitment.

Prefer a Euro-centric take.....? Look at the stupid mess that Barca have got themselves into.

If your ambitious it's there for you but if your like ENIC then winning isn't for you difficult for some to swallow but the sad reality.

Bribery, fraud and corruption isn't "ambition; it's cheating.

....Not every body has it in them to feel proud of sports washing either.
