Laporte is too good to be riding that bench.
He won't get a sniff at CB at City. That would be a fantastic move for us. 35-40m should do it?

think we need a pacy rw im still unsure on kulu long term there
Well hopefully we do have a plan B as if anything happens to Son/Richie we're looking at either Scarlett or Veliz leading the line.At the moment I feel like the fan speculation over Orban is stronger than the current media links, but I expect something (him or otherwise) to ramp up the moment Kane's departure is announced.
If we did go in for Orban then I don't see how Gent could resist it. As a Belgian league team there'll be a price point they simply can't turn down.
Those 2 - i.e. Doka & Olise - are players I'd liked Spurs to sign (yes, I know Doka's had a poor injury record lately)...but no chance if City are after them.
However, if Man C signs Paqueta they may not go after Olise.
Didn't he say he wasn't interested in a move to Spurs during the whole Kane City saga?Laporte is too good to be riding that bench.

Looks like Olise will go to chelsea. Don't think we are interested anyway.
I just think 'politically' it'd be very surprising if we didn't bring in a striker of note after Kane leaves. I hope they don't get too fixated on a big name of sorts rather than exciting potential (i.e. Vlahovic would be seen to appease the fans more than Orban).Well hopefully we do have a plan B as if anything happens to Son/Richie we're looking at either Scarlett or Veliz leading the line.

Orban I’m hopingEasy clickbait for these folks. I dont think that we are looking at a striker in the slightest.
Isn't Vlahovic a bit of a 'Diva'?I just think 'politically' it'd be very surprising if we didn't bring in a striker of note after Kane leaves. I hope they don't get too fixated on a big name of sorts rather than exciting potential (i.e. Vlahovic would be seen to appease the fans more than Orban).
Finally someone said it. I’m not saying he can’t be our starting 9 this season, but long term, that is a position we must upgrade to really challenge for success at the highest level.Probably because Richarlison was terrible? Doesn’t matter that he played mostly out wide, he repeatedly missed from 5 yards. He scored in 2 matches all season. One of the worst seasons for a forward in the history of Tottenham. The fee doesn’t mean anything. He isn’t good enough to replace Kane.
Yes but we were offering a boat load as part of the Kane deal
Fair enough.I made it my business to watch nearly every last bit of footage and live games I could of Vlahovic I'm telling you we don't want him.
Honestly, no idea. Even though he underperformed last season, I still think Richarlison should be 'big name' enough for the central striker position (which suits him more, as his Brazil performances have shown). We want a young punt to work under/with/supplant him (that isn't Veliz) IMO.
But we have eric dire.....!Laporte is too good to be riding that bench.

Several EPL clubs are said to be interested in Johan Bakayoko, a left-footed WF. Burnley have already inquired about him. Thing is, Noni Madueke also look good for PSV...
They seem to be really good at finding not just player with the right skills but also the right attitude...Man City's scouting network is insane. We have Mark Lawwell who we got from Man City (son of our CE). His success rate for scouting and signing players is around 80%. He started working with Postecoglu at Yokohama Marinos and recommend him to us. Their scouting network is truly top notch
He did miss some absolute sitters and shot high and wide on numerous occasions when clean through on goal........Probably because Richarlison was terrible?
