Agreed. As long as its not a matter of 'only brennan' and nobody else is coming in that's fine to bulk out the squad with useful players who belong at teams competing for europa or top 4 at a push.
I've given up on expecting more than this though.

We are after the Belgium center back from Leicester apparently wout Faes via Ben Jacobs
How do you know this?
Based on the pic, seems like the most likely offer is coming from Abercrombie & fitch
Brennan Johnson for £50m is crazy. That's a huge gamble on a very raw player who just had a poor season.
Would we not be better making a push for Madueke, he is both home grown and club trained. Offers some pace out wide. He doesn't seem to be starting for Chelsea. Or even Marcus Edwards who looked quality against us fairly recently.

Head to Italy or Championship and get career back on track or stay at Spurs & continue to miss out on making the bench just to stay in the PL.
Tough choice indeed.
Wout Faes is shit, and so is Ben Jacobs.
Not sure exactly what state Seville are in but they have sold a few lately
Well our home grown quota is getting dangerous. Maybe Johnson is a must for that.
Scary that he got more goals than Richarlison looks like scoring.
I do think they would spread the goals less if they had a more gifted forward. I don't dispute that spreading them around is a good thing.
What would be an interesting stat is league position vs top goal scorer. IE, do teams that usually finish higher up usually have a standout top scorer / golden boot winner.
City have had Aguerro and now Haaland. Liverpool have had Salah. We've had Kane. Chelsea have had Drogba and Costa.
Be interesting with Arse this season if they can continue to spread the goals and get the results.
You answered it for me. He scores,creates chances,is older with lots more big game experience is better now.
Johnson might progress and be top player but from the games I’ve seen him I’ve not been blown away or think he’s going to be a right good player. I have always thought Barnes was the type of player that was quite underrated and is always a goal threat.
I said yesterday and I'll say it again.
Levy "asking to much" is absolutely intentional and he knows full well he won't get what he's asking. He will wait until last day (or few days) of the window and drop demands.
Barnes is better than Johnson but he's a LW, and we're fully stocked on that position.

Levy fucking up the window imagine my shock
Last sentence is probably true. Have read were miles apart with forest for johnson. Slight concern is when deadline day hits we chasing our tail and end up with no striker, then makes ange job harder. Just sign a striker ffs.
