Eze would only be realistic if Kane went, Palace have lost Zaha and Olise is hurt/likely going

What they’d want for him would be in the 50-60m range and up, which would just be silly
 
Strange one.

40-50m minimum but Palace aren't selling Olise and Eze in the same window...Especially after losing Zaha.


If we were paying this, then a combo of Kane, GLC, and Hojberg is definitely out the door.

I would imagine with monitoring, it's likely be if we lose both Hojbjerg and Ndombele and potentially Perisic. Seems the way it's worded that he'd also be someone who'd play LW as opposed to particularly CM
 
He definitely has.

He pretty much played LW his entire QPR career when originally and a few times with Palace.
He has played there before, but Palace obviously had Zaha. I personally think that's where his future is, like a Grealish, Ronaldinho type, hybrid winger/10 rather than in midfield. I don't think his passing is varied enough. He should just be tormenting defenders with his dribbling and close control.

But LW we have Son and Solomon…

I wouldn’t complain either way. He’s just really good at playing football so I’m not that fussed which position you start him in.
 
Eze to me isn’t just a central 10 to spell Maddison. That’s a very stifled unimaginative way of using him. I really think he would be the Bernardo Silva for our system and could be absolutely brilliant, versatility to play the wing and be a central and wide playmaker. One thing that Perisic has that others don’t is wide delivery and smart playmaking, Eze can cross and go infield equally well, even if he isn’t a traditional winger.
 
I don't see why Eze couldn't play as a winger, he has the tools and has done it in the past, though it'd probably be a bit of a waste.
 
Don't want to be carried away but I think we are one CB away from fightin for the title, in theory. This squad is probably the best I can remember since I started to support Spurs and we have at least one top notch player for every position. Also we aren't playing in Europe, so less games and less travel. Really excited for this season, as you can see!
 
Ernest Nuamah's scored 4 goals in 2 league games (a hat-trick on the 1st league game of the season) and 3 goals in 2 cups games so far this season. It could be now or never for Spurs (if they want him).


And his club, Nordsjælland, are resigned to "losing" him already in this transfer window:

At the moment we have a real weakness in the LW with Son starting, can't see it happening without him either suddenly finding form, Ange dropping him for Perisic, or Ange changing his role from wide player to inside forward.

Son is a top level player. That Conte's fucked up system was bad for everyone and I'm sure Son will improve under Ange. Also the adition of Maddison create more room for him given that Mads should be more targeted from the opposition. We already can see this in the friendlies, Son is having more space for driblles and is passing the ball far better than last season. But ok, let's wait to see him in the EPL.

True, Son had, by his standard, a poor last season - but so was the rest of team, too (apart from Kane); so give him at least a few game before judging him. The season hasn't even started yet.

He was a top level player, a top level inside forward who massively relied on his pace, now he's 31 and obviously isn't as fast as he used to be, can he adapt at his age to playing wide again? Time will tell, but early signs are not encouraging. Usually when talented wide players age and slow down, they're moved to the middle to get the most out of them, now we're seeing the opposite happening with Son, and I'm not sure he'll benefit from that.
