Like Perisic a free deal for an elite player you have to think we should go for it. Means we can also save our cash for other places.

I suspect we are but leaving it up to the player to decide. These reports are in a more positive tone than previous ones so I guess we will just have to wait and see. If it’s a case of waiting a few weeks until he decides I think it is a good idea rather than putting any pressure on him. He knows us, if he wants to return then he will.
 
What fine it is, so far & January included we go in get a player(s) no faffing about bang fee paid contract signed job done Conte must have a BIG influence on that! Levy has fucked about for years with transfers and dragging them out to the point you lose interest, it’s like oh ffs just sign somebody, anybody Sissoko being one that springs to mind.

Yea, and once more - like with Perisic there are other supporting factors.
We just don't sing free agents.

Eriksen had played (and won over!) Conte + played for Spurs.
Perisic had played well in Conte's Inter + have experience from number of leagues as well, not only Serie A.

If we would get Eriksen, Perisic and Forster on free, then we have quite some cash for
RWB
LCB
Strong and commanding CM (Bissouma, Soucek, Savic)
FW/ST

And if Conte really decides to go with Spence in RWB role, then we could easily pay 60+ million for other 3 positions with CCV (10), Lo Celso (20), Bergwijn (15), Winks (20), Regulion (20), Rodon (10) to be turned into cash.

This window is really shaping up nicely...
 
I understand why we’re prioritising a LCB but if Bastoni isn’t available we shouldn’t be restricting our options based purely on that.

I’d argue Davies and Dier had comparable performances under Conte last season, and IMO….

Davies Bremer Romero

Reads a lot better than….

Lenglet Dier Romero

Go for the best player available.
