It's not like he hasn't been training with Wolfsburg.
You give him an easy assignment vs. Brentford. Play conservative and try to cut out long balls over the top.

I really don't mind Johnson at all. Absolutely rapid.
Think the original figure banded about for him was far too much though. It we can get a more reasonable price by throwing some of our dead wood their way then it'd be a good deal.
HG too.
So you want Kane to stay so we can qualify for the Europa (~£25M) and win a LC (<£1M).
You're turning down £100M so you can make less than £26M and have to compete with Kane playing for a direct competitor, that he joined for free, from 2024/25 on.
Top 5 = CL next season (so 40m min. depending on further progress in group stages)
+ an ACTUAL trophy (Fuck the prize money aspect of that one either way!).
+ a few extra million per each EPL finishing position.
+ a roll of the dice that he signs a new deal cos he's finally won something and feels we can do more.
I'd take that right now if you offered it to me.
I think the fact we've signed a young striker aswell as looking to bring in Orban shows we're planning for the future.
Better to get our future in now than be scrambling about next season when the inevitable happens.
While I don't really like Johnson, if we actually offload 3 unwanted players in the process then I don't mind this deal.
Who cares? If he wants to go to City next summer then it is what it is.
Enjoy him while he's here and then cheer on his replacement next year!
COYS!
Djed+30m for Johnson would be great. Not because I particularly rate Johnson but bc it’s clear Spence has no future here.

Top doesn't get CL for 24/25?
Ok I'll change it to top 4 then.
How ridiculous. As if Forest will take our rejects for their most valuable player.
Would be silly not giving him a run tomorrow......
He'll have done all the pre-season fitness stuff with Wberg.
Johnson is a weird one.
Eye test is pretty good, but his advance stats are apparently awful.
You're right Herman, it isn't Real it's Tottenham Hotspur the laughing cock of Europe.
Both Spence and Rodon would be a good fit for them. I assume there would also be money involved.
The unknown is where Kane stands. The risk of declining Bayerns offer is much smaller if Kane is showing signs of feeling AP is turning things around.
From Levy’s POV that will have an immense effect on his decision as well. I really don’t think this is about money for Kane or winning a BL or even a CL. This is about Spurs showing they are serious about building a team that will challenge for
. That started with Ange. Early signs show that is happening. Next is sorting out the bloated squad and filling the weaknesses.
If the signs are there Harry could easily sign a year extension with a buyout clause that guaranteed him the ability to move on after this season or sooner.
One thing I do believe is that Kane really would want to succeed at Spurs above anywhere else….

Tbf there’s been a lot of players who have good eye test but play in shite teams under poor managers and then blossom in a better system. You have to remember that team never had the ball under Cooper and Johnson was essentially playing defense most of the match.
Imagine Johnson in KAA Gent rather than Forest? I bet his stats look a lot like Orban’s.
I don’t even rate Johnson, he’s underwhelming to me, but I do think it’s a bit unfair to judge him just off last season alone.

I know the thought of sacrificing financial gain in exchange for winning a trophy is hard to handle
