I'm not sure Osimhen is going to fetch 120m. But let's see what happens re Vlahovic, as I said, I don't hate him, but don't love him.

I'd be quite happy for us to cash out the Kane chips now, while he's got some value, and put that money to the rebuild, and start a fresh with a bunch of forwards who can all fit the system.

If we get both CBs (VDV2 & Tapsoba) and an expensive CF such as Vlahovic, then this is Bale & the Magnificent 7 all over again.

Levy spending the cash before prices are inflated, knowing our best player will eventually be sold to the highest bidder.
 
If we get Van De Ven as reported for less than £30M we have no excuse not to go for Tapsoba for 40-45M.

It's time. we conceded 63 goals last year.

SIXTY THREE!!

if you take away the 3 relegated teams only 2 teams conceded more than us. Forest and Bournemouth

That is fucking pathetic.

No more Dier, Lloris, Sanchez, Lenglet, Davies etc etc

Step up Tottenham, open your eyes.

I just don’t see Lenglets wages being worth it.

They might pick him up if Barca buy out his contract

There's no way we're taking Lenglet on his wages. We were doing Barca a favour and we needed a quick fix. No we have a summer to do business, we can do much better much cheaper. That's all there is to it.

He's not coming here. End of.

EDIT: Hahahahaha, Ashley Young! He's going to Everton.

Accepting the likelihood that a replacement 25-30 goal p/a striker is slim to zero; I'd definitely prefer to ride a season out with Son & Richy at CF and see how that unfolds with the any potential money spent in the surrounding positions instead...... Probably get a lot more bang for our buck blowing out on a couple of WFwds...... Then you can revisit the trf market for a new CF in Summer 24 if one of Son or Rich has bombed out (or lost that crucial bit of zip in Sonny's case).

Vlahovic is nothing more than fan talk at this stage though, no?

70/80m merely on a pair of CBs doesn't smell of Kane money to me.

Yes.

Don’t need a target man if you want to have the ball a lot.

Might need one against City but even then Ange isn’t going to change his style to hit the big man up top.

If Kane is off, then get a winger that can score 15-20, lean on your system more than a striker.

It seems so strange to go so far to negotiate in such detail for both "apparently" knowing well we fully won't pull the trigger on one of them.

I'm sure it's the truth, it's just bizarre behavior.

Bargaining power. It’s game theory.

“We have an agreement in principle for €X for player Y. Bring down your figure by 2m and we’ll sign your player.”
