The nine Spurs stars Postecoglou could be set to move to make room for transfers

The Tottenham Hotspur boss wants players out of the door first before the club starts to look at new arrivals in the remaining weeks of the transfer window

Postecoglou recently told football.london that he wants Giovani Lo Celso and Ivan Perisic to be part of his squad.

I’m sure if we got the right offer he’d change his tune on Lo Celso.

Can’t see anyone bidding on Perisic

 

[Château NoHo]

He plays for Gent.

Didn't they knock us out of Europa League in 2017?

 

[Paul Gascoigne]

Based on what (other than blind optimism)?

Lots of play on the Internet, he is physically ready and has a good record of finishing.
What are you basing your negativity on ??

I’d cancel the contract, pay him what he’s due and tell him to fuck off. In reality clubs hold onto players like this because they think some mugs will eventually pay something for them. I’d rather take the hit and get rid.

It’s 20 million.
More than we paid for our keeper.

better off loaning him out even if we have to cover 50% of wages.

You can also just loan him out and get someone else to absorb some of the money.

He said he would never manage a rival of previous clubs

He was careful to only name Barca and Woolwich though. Obviously not defending him - he won’t get a warm reception from me and I’m looking forward to it.

Fair enough just do something to get him out. I can’t stand players hanging around if they have no future or present at the club. This guy must fall into that category.

I know there is a handful of loons who think he’s going to come good in Ange’s system, but I prefer not to wait for miracles.

I'm relieved to see that Ange seems to agree.

I'm willing to trust him on Lo Celso, I suppose.

 

[randombere]

I think many on here believed he had them.

Click to shrink...

Yup. But the expose book really made me doubt his ethics at the time - or at best thought he was naive. He talked a good talk initially (tho maybe that was the translator…)

We don’t sign a striker and another centre back we will be in big trouble and ain’t no way we will make top 6-8 with richarlison up top no way .

 

[Paul Gascoigne]

Gift Orban looks like a cracking player, but I wonder: what would Scarlett do with a season in the Jupiler Pro League?

I'm thinking he'd probably tear it up too.

So buy Orban and lend them Scarlett and then we will all know the answer !!

The talk is that Lo Celso -> Barca then we will go for Eze

It's also better for ffp, cost spread over contract rather than immediate. Holding on for a mug and slightly improving ffp

I am constantly mystified by Barca nowadays

Seems too good to be true.
