Skriniar is Inters way of keeping above board for FFP requirements by June 30th, they need to show an additional 60M on their balance sheet by then.
And if true Inter cannot sign Bremer until after 1 July. May or may not show an open door if Spurs want Bremer
His overall record was pretty damn good, considering their total lack of structure or creativity. And I don't think you can put that down to him because whenever I watched them without him they looked fucking dreadful.
I do think his negative impact has been overblown. I agree his need to be the star may be an issue, but you're still not finding any striker who will make better runs, is more dangerous in the air or more clinical in front of goal. I wouldn't be surprised at all if Ten Haag found a good use for him.
"Odegaard squares it to Jesus who buries it behind Pope.... It's now Newcastle 4.... Woolwich 1"
Im half with you there, Bremer is beast hands down
, although I just dont want Scum to get Raphina whilst im not bothered if we sign him per se, unlike Gabriel hesus which i really couldnt give a toss plus its funny City are ripping them off too lol, I really dont want Raphina go there, he actually add quality to them and potentially could really push on.With Bergs going 10000% (hallelujah) and us potentially cashing in on Moura circa 10M due to last yr of contract, that could be be 35M we could put towards another attacking WF, regardless if Moura stays we still need another WF , although i know Ivan can fill in which is good now and again but ideally we need a pace merchant.

Not RWB?
Not LCB?
Not the lomg fabled ST2?
You think priority now is backup for Kulu?
Not at all reactionary.

Put it this way which would you rather have. I know I would be A.
A Ivan Perisic, Bissouma, Richarlison, Bremer
B Jesus, Raphinha, Tielemans, Viera
And yeh if we could also get Raphinha that would be great.
I’ll be honest I would have thrown my toys out of the pram if Woolwich got Bissouma that’s how much I rate him.
He has 0.38 goals per 90. He’ll start a lot more games for Woolwich but be in a lower scoring team. I’d expect him to maintain that with more regular game time.
45 full games means 17 goals. I’m gonna predict 15-18 goals. He will be a great signing for them.
Your maths is bad
Agree, however i just dont want him to go there, he can go elsewhere to barca etc etc just not there to woolwich wankers
100% agree on Bissouma , they actually need players like him, a position they 1000% had to address but now are sticking with "No Party Hard" on the injury bench constantly and they renewed El Ninny LOL!!!!!
There's a limit of 23 or 24 players in the squad - so if we play 344, we only have room for 4CM's for 2 CM positions, move to 352 and its 4 forwards for 2 positions but 6 CM's for 3 positions. With your numbers we'd go over the total squad numbers
So think you've double counted the CM's and forwards - if we assume 344, we need zero more CM's, so a total of 4 more (ie 7 in total would be great) with Conte's saying he'd like 6 in at start of season.
All comps you mean?
If we play 344, we should almost certainly win the league, so I wouldn’t worry too much.
I didn't think "showing interest" and "preparing to bid" counted........????
Such things get laughed at when it comes to Spurs but when it's our rivals you melts drool with anticipation.
Very ugly.

Maybe the plan was always to sign two CBs.
Some are assuming Lenglet is THE LCB option but maybe he was always the second utility target so:
- Bastoni/Pau Torres/Bremer - LCB
- Lenglet - LCB/CCB
It would make sense to bring in two CB's given doubts and general level of Rodon/Sanchez/Tanganga and no cover for Davies.
Lenglet will effectively be free (loan with option), is a good ball-playing CB and can play in the centre or the left. If he's shit then he won't play much and we won't activate the option.
Then on top of this we target the main man. It seems we hoped that would be Bastoni but we have had to move on from that so who knows. I think any of Bremer/Torres/Ndicka are probably upgrades on Sanchez/Rodon.
While I am pretty confident Lenglet wouldn't be our only CB signing I'm willing to give him a chance. After what Conte did with Davies in a back 3 I can't believe people would be so quick to write him off.

I like Phillips a lot but we have 4 midfielders now in Bentancur, Hojbjerg, Bissouma & Skipp who provide the physical work in midfield. Phillips has got a nice passing range to go with it, but really not a player we're in need of. Bissouma is much more what we required.
Plus, once City are involved, we don't stand a chance. Simple.
Very similar to Pau Torres in that he has great ability with the ball, and is a bit waif-like in some of his defending. Had some howlers in recent years. Personally think a change of scenery would do him good, and a change to back three simplifies defensive responsibility as it has done for the likes of Dier, Davies, Rudiger in recent years.
I'd be happy enough with him if the nature of the move implied significant spending elsewhere. Lots of players I'd be happier with though. Some of his passing can be really excellent to be fair.
Bissouma really is a game changer for us and I don't think enough people realise. But they will soon enough.
It would be incredible if we could somehow pull off Richarlison + Raphina and not completely unrealistic given Berg is gone and Lucas is going into his last year.
You are correct. 20 games we get 10m. Might get 40m eventually but that would prob mean Everton getting in champ league. We’ve done well if we get 20m.
Must damage your confidence a bit when your club basically have to give you away as no one wants to put some actual money down. Would like him to do well but wouldn’t Put money on it.
Am I the only one who instinctively wondered when her arms starting moving up whether she was going to take her top off? Guess it's ingrained into us fellas. :/
