Kane will NOT have another injury-free season if we don't get another forward. And besides, Richarlison and Raphinha look like very ambitious lads. What's the problem if they come here and try to take Son or Kane out of the Starting 11?

Kane and Son are both knocking on the door of 30
Liverpool have something big businesses call "succession planning"
They signed Nunes and Diaz before Mane/Salah get too old and/or leave. We should be doing the same IMO.
 
Why are they buying attacking midfielders and wing forwards as i'd say thats about the only areas they have decent players in like Saka, Martinelli, Odegaard and Smith-Rowe. Very odd. They need good full backs, central midfielders and strikers i would have thought but fuck em.

Because

Liverpool can afford to do that because they have a very settled squad.

Spurs need to fix the squad first before doing any fancy succession planning for Kane and son..and it may very well not be a like for like replacement. I won't be surprised if the future is built around Kulu, Bentancur, Romero and Richarlison.
 

Tottenham have been urged to forget signing Richarlison because he would not be a "statement signing". Former Spurs striker Teddy Sheringham believes his old team should instead focus on alternative big-name targets.


Everton star Richarlison has been linked with a move to north London after helping the Toffees stay in the Premier League. Antonio Conte has already made two signings in Ivan Perisic and Fraser Forster, and is closing in on Brighton midfielder Yves Bissouma.

But Sheringham does not think Richarlison would be a wise signing, claiming there are already enough players of his ilk at the club. He told Lord Ping: "I don't think he's what is needed now.

"Tottenham have got good attacking players; [Harry] Kane, [Heung-min] Son, [Dejan] Kulusevski, [Steven] Bergwijn is still there, [Lucas] Moura is still there. We’ve got players in the Richarlison mold and I don’t think he would be a statement signing that would get teams worried.

"If they were to sign him, what would the result be? In my day, when we signed [Jurgen] Klinsmann, a proper World Class player, everyone in the dressing room was buzzing.

"We knew what we were going to get from him. You need players that are going to take you to the next level and I don’t think Richarlison is one of them."

Tottenham are back in the Champions League after finishing fourth in the Premier League last term. And Sheringham would like to see a couple of major incomings give what he feels is a much-needed boost to the squad.

He added: "I'd like to see at least two more players go in there. Statement signings that show the world Tottenham are changing the stature of the club.

I like Sherringham but wtf does he know here? Not a lot really. He wasn't a big name statement signing when he went to Forest, Spurs or United.

That attack with Sheringham, Klinsmann, Barmby and Anderton was outstanding. Shame it was for only one season.
