Yes. We have no place for a bodybuilder with no end product, playing in a position he hasn't played in before. But we have for a homegrown young player that is already good, with lots of potential.

I guess Traore's muscles is a real hindrance when playing in a position that requires lots of running and long sprints up and down the field for 90 minutes. There aren't very many sprinters and middle distance runners that looks like Schwartzenegger, for a reason.
Middle distance runners and sprinters have totally different physiques. Have you seen how bulked up modern day sprinters are? And have you seen Traore sprint? I don't think his muscles really hinder him that much.
 
Behaved Wolves and Traore behaved like cunts. Wolves wanted more than they should have got, Traore thought he was too good for us and went for Barca. Now they want 10million and now he will accept us. Fuck them both! They deserve very little money and he deserves everton and donkeys like dele and winks next to him.
If Conte wants him, Wolves wants to sell, and he is willing to come to us, fuck it let's get him We shouldn't act like players are girls that didn't want to date us. And sometimes getting humbled like he did may actually work in his - and our - favor and make him want to double down to prove something.
 
Classic ITK bullshit response. He doesn't have a clue as usual. Gold is out there with all the head honchos. If anyone is going to hear something it is him or one of the other guys out there. That is common sense.
The guys a pathological liar. He absolutely loves it, being treated like fucking royalty by a bunch of naïve simpletons. He can lie all day and never lose a moments sleep over it.
 
Just curious why some people think we can’t secure a transfer in or out while we are in Korea? They do have a mobile phone network there right?
It's not impossible.
It doesn't mean we will do any business though. I bet most of our medical team is in Korea as well for instance. Could agree a fee and maybe even personal terms on the phone. But suspect the real deal would need to wait. And you know what Spurs are like, they won't say anything until the ink is dry.

Sprinters usually don't keep sprinting for 90 minutes. If looking like Traore would bea good thing for a footballer I'm sure there would be more than one.

Those muscles needs much oxygen and energy, I'm guessing that that is more of a hindrance for an attacking wing back than a help. He will tire fast.

Same reason Tyson Fury is usually still going strong in round twelve and AJ is blowing out of his arse.

Well, it's not like he has never played a game of competitive football before, so I am sure there must be some stats that can tell us what his endurance is. From the few times I have seen him play, I don't remember him being gassed towards the end of matches. But can't say for sure either. Either way, I'm sure the scouting staff will have some data on all of this and not recommend a transfer if he didn't tick the endurance box.
