He really does switch off a lot, even in possession he can drift out of a game. It was the one question mark at QPR and I don’t think it’s changed. Brilliant player, just missing something.
There is a reason why these wingers love playing for CP. No pressure on their place.
Zaha flopping at blooming Gala after flopping at United.
Eze and Olise both signed new 4 year contracts this season.
 
I don't know why people laugh at the idea of buying say Willian (example) , to replace Werner. IS it because he is too old or too cheap? or don't come at a +60M price?

It's incredible all these talk about angeball hingeing on wing attack as the main playbook & yet we don't have one single winger who can beat/dribble his man at will. Except for Porro- we are not even going to the byline for crosses.
we'll probably just go route-66 which is the middle.
It’s where you get your kicks so makes sense to me

Ah, that's exactly what we need to succession plan away from Son as our first choice LW, someone significantly older than him! The top 6 and sky will never see it coming.
 
Zirkzee imo is one of the few out there that might fit in the buy range and salary range we shop in and also have the ability to go up a level and be a Son/Kane level attacker

Haven’t seen him recently though. Anyone seen much him him in the last few games?
2 goals & 1 assist over the past month or 6 matches.

Good player, sure, but still way too early to talk about him in the same breath as Sonny, let alone Kane.

Having a solid season under Motta at Bologna and did well at Anderlecht...but that don't make you an automatic starter at Spurs.

If we're serious about winning the league or even getting closer to City/Pool, plus maybe bagging a domestic or european cup, we need a sure(r) thing. Especially for the big money he'd cost us.

Think the kid needs (at least) another year in Serie A to prove he's the real deal. I remember that Piatek dude who everyone was raving about after he bagged a few goals for Genoa. He's not even 30 and he's now playing for superpower Basaksehir in Turkey...
 
Ange said he pushed through the January window instead of summer so that all the signings will have immediate impact to help the team.

BUT Dragusin isn't even playing neither is Werner having significant impact.
And, Bergval is in storage along with all the academy players, \

Why not try a couple of new players.

We are now officially the richest club in London, one of the richest clubs in the world & have I believe the 3rd highest match day revenues in the world. There can be no more excuses why we are not competing with the big boys & signing the top players. We can’t just keep buying 2nd & 3rd tier quality players & expect to reach the level of the top clubs.

Hmmm who in your world is a top tier player?
