Benjamin Sesko could be a good shout for another striker option. Great 2nd option now plus massive potential in the long term. Although almost certain Bayern will do their perfunctory business and get him
Looks like he's no fan of Arteta, either.

Especially as they have another 2 yrs after thatA reminder that all football contracts officially expire on June 30.
So the likes of Nbombele and GLC are unlikely to be rushing any move.
There's no playoff for the champs LeagueThere won't be many games where we can go at less than near full strength next season unless we decide to sack off the domestic cups (which I really hope we don't).
We don't enter the League Cup until the 3rd round, and at that stage we could just as easily get City as a League One club. We can't mess about with the play-off round in the Champions League, and assuming we win that there won't be any games against weak teams in the group.
Not that confident on Eriksen. He said recently that he didn’t get the Conte system as when he was attacking he liked to play the pass he saw. According to Conte you play his system at all times. That is play the pass as his system dictates. Eriksen said he got it in his head for second half of the season and played regularly as per the system in a deep lying role. Does he want to go back to that or be the main man somewhere else. Back to Spurs seems logical but don’t rule out Brentford. He will have a different aspect on life after his illness.Brentford makes sense.
I’d be quite surprised if he went anywhere but Brentford or back to us.
Why is pep so fixated on cucurella? He has fucking cancelo and zinchenko at LB already.
Bidding war?!?!
Yeah, it's a tough one. He's not bad, and we'll be going into the season as our 5th choice attacker. It's not the end of the world. But he would not be good enough to make it as City/Liverpool's 5th choice attacker, and that's the standards we have to be attempting to meet.
What do you do? Can't force him to leave I guess. You try to find a buyer, tell him that a club is looking to buy him and we would like to sell. I'm sure he'd get a decent move to a nice city in Italy.
We are straight into the group stage. There is no playoff for 4th now.There won't be many games where we can go at less than near full strength next season unless we decide to sack off the domestic cups (which I really hope we don't).

It is very often a one way street with fans. As soon as they view a player as disposable he's essentially trash to them, see the treatment of someone like Winks who isn't really good enough but still isn't nearly deserving of some of the abuse he receives.
Lucas has given his all for the club & provided a great moment, if he wants to see out his contract and is happy with a bit part role, great.
A short term deal could work for both parties. Gets to play champions league. And if things don't work out he can move on after a season.Not that confident on Eriksen.

Good example. 12 months ago Winks was determined to stay when we were happy to offload but what good did it do him? A wasted season for him. It doesnt do anyone any favours in the long run.

I never thought he should have got abused. I find that all completely uneccessary, as again he's done nothing wrong. However It seemed pretty obvious that his time was up with us 12 months ago and he decided to give it another year, fair play, thats his right. Just dont see what good its done his career really when he could have played 40 or so games for another decent prem club.It's not a good example at all..... He chose to stay and fight for a spot as is his right under his contract and has yet got roundly abused.
If one expects professionalism when under contract from (eg) Kame then why should Winks get abused for the other side of the same coin?
I don't think that will be covered in the contract with Brighton. They're not the ones that got Bissouma in trouble. For them it's probably "take it, Spurs, or leave it." If there's any clause it would be in the contract with the player.I doubt any of that gets paid if Bissouma gets any legal issues. We are talking Levy here, he will have covered this one way or another.
