They do?
Eze alone would be a miracle already.Okay we've got 100m to spend, lets get serious. Plus the Hojbjerg and Sanchez sale lets call that another 35m.
60m on Eze plus 40m on a top CB. 35m on a forward.
It would be classic Levy to spaff 60m on Vlahovic thinking he’s making a statementOur past managers can tell you all about signings they didn't want.
I don't think we go for a straightforward top drawer CF now.I honestly do not understand this Eze hype... to the extent that people want to spend more than half our Kane money on him.
He has been okay for Palace... but not really stood out. He's already 25, and in recent years been at a similar level to Zaha and Olise.
We also have many players in his position already.
Surely we should invest as much as we can at CB and CF now, instead of wingers?
The noise is a young striker like Orban. I’d be pretty inspired by his story and the idea of him coming good.Veliz isn't ready and won't play a single minute this year.
I think a new striker is definitely on the cards.
you think Levy is "not counting" Porro and Kulusevski?In terms of the 'already spent Kane money' line, let's dig deeper:
Spurs net spend this window (discounting making loans permanent): -3 million
So if you don't count Kulu and Porro... we've MADE money net in this window!!
For comparison, in this window:
Woolwich: €197.75m
Manchester United: €168.60m
Aston Villa: €85.10m
Burnley: €75.80m
Great stuff Levy!
I don't think we go for a straightforward top drawer CF now.
Firstly, who would that be? Secondly we have Richarlison who will be given a chance and Ange was bullish on Son as CF.
So I think we go for punt on a young prospect instead.
I like Eze because he could also play wide forward (in the event Son moves central) and improve our creativity in midfield. Outside of Maddison we are still lacking there.
If you ignore our two most expensive signings (60m) in transfers we’ve made money!In terms of the 'already spent Kane money' line, let's dig deeper:

Meh on Toney.
The noise is a young striker like Orban. I’d be pretty inspired by his story and the idea of him coming good.
I don't think there's any chance Palace sell Eze this window, not getting my hopes up.
Didn't know it was a competition in spending €€?!In terms of the 'already spent Kane money' line, let's dig deeper:
