couldn't think of a more stupid move unless Luka forces it.
This guy is nailed on to be world class.
Flatulence.
Pretty sure we're still one of the most secure clubs PSR-wise
Did you notice how many goals we've conceded over the last few years?
Truth is that the whole squad needs rebuilding, all positions.
No back to goal is usually meant as playing with your back towards the opponents goal. Which is why no one ever refers to defenders receiving the ball as receiving with their back to goal since they're facing play.
And I don't think VdV struggles receiving the ball out the back anyway. It's easier to receive the ball facing play which is why it's a weird comment to make anyway.
We losing Romero so Sensi isnt even standing still.
Sorry to be pendantic, but I dont even think we need to find roles for Bergvall or Gray. They should be benched or sold IMO.
Romero, VDV & Danso for 2;Positions. What other position have we that strength? Not GK, not forwards, FB’s Porro, Spence & Udogie ? No, midfield, despite many midfielders not a strength and part of the problem with conceding goals along with FB’s.
Vicario has been a source of conceding goals and many believe is going but any info on a replacement. Our forwards, Richie believed to be going, Muani gone, Odebert out for months, Kula, will he ever be back, Kudus, will he be back from day 1? Only real mention is a rehash for a MC winger we failed to get in the last 2 windows and cannot get inthe MC team. These are the areas where we will find out if ENIC’s promise to invest in the team is real or just hot air.
Would like to see us try to bait Bournemouth into selling us Scott and us loaning them Bergvall as part of the deal.
Would like the same for Devine, with Hackney.
Think it would be very good to get five/six/seven English players into our core group (Scott, Hackney added to Gallagher, Maddison, Gray and Spence, with Moore possibly season after ditto Phillips/Devine).
PSR doesn’t exist anymore, it’s squad cost ratio now.
So, according to this guy, whoever happens to be Spurs' DoF from next season know he will be sacked instantly if Paul Winstanley become available
Glad we didnt go for sterling. The sun says he got done for drug driving. Dear oh dear.
In every interview I've seen of him, he comes across as highly intelligent.
You guys are both right, and it's a fair point. Still, the Polish, Croatian, Belgian and German leagues aren't the Premier League, especially when it comes to hitting the ground running. Plenty of established players have struggled in their first season, if not longer.
Having a year to adapt, or even another loan, wouldn't be the worst thing if we had Danso and Van Hecke ahead of him initially. He could then develop and potentially overtake both, with Danso perhaps moved on after another season.
That said, I'd love him to come in now and be a starter from day one. I've said the same about plenty of young prospects from other leagues over the years, though most of them ended up failing at Tottenham. Then again, that's probably more of a Spurs problem than a player problem.
RDZ likes his players to do lots of quick,short passing moving the ball upfield.
Did hear dragusin might be going for 15 - 20m euros. Chuffed with that. Id have accepted Turkish lira.
TBF, 2 signings confirmed before the window even opens is definitely change. And I'm one who has been adamant that nothing would change.
I fully expect Kinsky will be the #1. Expect we'll look for a Friedel type cheap veteran that can potentially be a steady caretaker until next summer if the young lad falls apart.
There's been some talk about attacking players, though none all that exciting. We haven't changed our stripes that much, we're not spending £120M and £300kpw on a sexy CF signing.
This started from my post.
I meant defending with his back to his own goal not the opponent’s goal nearly 100 yards away.
Doesn't he have a contract until 2030?
He's going nowhere on the cheap, if at all.
The important thing is the length on the contract and anything over 2 years is moot as you’re going to get full price regardless.
You cannot make a player who doesn’t want to stay play for you. The best you can do is put the transfer off for a window or two (potentially losing value) and, perhaps, rule out certain destinations.
