Re: the outgoings?

I reckon we’ll hang on to our excess, potential cast offs until other teams are desperate. Full Levy reversal…

Winks - Everton/Leicester
GLC - Villarreal
Belly - a French or Italian team without a WiFi connection
Royal/Doherty/Regs??

Young kids out on loan
Nbelly-Newcastle/Everton
Royal-Juve/Athletico
Regs-Sevilla
with winks 80m the lot.
 
First choice for an Argentina team who could go close in the World Cup. Wouldn’t be surprised if Athletico came in for him at the death.

End of the day (it gets dark)

Levy has tried to lowball many a team at the end of the window hoping for a cheap deal.
IF he has declined offers now and is hoping teams will pay more late on for a player we just don't want he's mad.
 
Paulinho was first choice for Brazil at one time, it doesn’t mean anything. Loads of rubbish players turn out for their national teams when there aren’t better options.

And even when there are

Could we still spend another 120m - 150m this window🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🙄🤣🤣

My opinion/guess based on nothing but hearsay...

the club feels like they can get their main/a main world class CB in next summer so funds will be available to make that happen (and hence the Lenglet on loan deal).

but this summer, I think they may push on and go reasonably big on an attacking cm.

Just pure guesswork of course
 

£30 million Atletico Madrid midfielder Rodrigo de Paul has turned down a move to the Premier League and Tottenham Hotspur this summer, as reported by Tuttomercatoweb.

Tenacious yet technically gifted in equal measure, De Paul possesses a lot of the attributes Antonio Conte wants from a central midfield player. Or Diego Simeone, for that matter.

Just look at the way he performed in Argentina’s Copa America final triumph over Brazil last summer. A performance full of fire as well as finesse. De Paul is a ball-player and a ball-winner rolled into one, and a natural-born leader to boot.

“De Paul is an important player on the pitch, both with and without the ball,” Albiceleste captain Lionel Messi said of the former Udinese captain.

“Little by little, we got to know each other and I am happy to play with him.” Pierpaolo Marino, shortly before selling the one-time Leeds United target to Simeone’s La Liga giants (FC Inter News).

“His performances are the result of a incredible class combined with lots of hard work and sacrifice.

“De Paul is a tireless worker. I would put him among the best captains I’ve ever had in my teams for the seriousness he always demonstrates.”

The one-time Valencia youngster found life tough during his debut season in Spain, however, impressing only sporadically for an Atletico side who failed miserably to retain their La Liga title.

But, according to Tuttomercatoweb, De Paul is not going to give up on his Atletico career so soon. He would not be the first player to take some time adapting to Simeone’s energy-sapping style. The 28-year-old has turned down Conte’s Spurs, as well as an ambitious Fiorentina outfit.

It is not certain how serious Tottenham’s interest was. Or, for that matter, when Spurs made their interest known. Was it before Fabio Paratici succeeded in luring Yves Bissouma away from Brighton?

The similarities between the two players suggests that may be the case.
 
I don’t like Maddison either but I think he’s better than JWP.

Would be a good player for us.
Maddison is a more complete players than JWP. But his personality makes me wonder if he would fit in with our squad.
Agree... We may as well have kept Dele!

A great player in there... but a confidence player...
if it's not going his way, or is in and out of the team, then it'll probably end up the same way.

Not forgetting, Madison+London nightlife would be one heady mix!
