We'll see. I reckon he'll be back at Forest in 2.

I think Toney would still be on the radar. As you say they might be waiting for a price drop.
People here don't want some cock-womble who actively tried to sell himself to Woolwich throughout his gambling suspension.
He continued to whore himself toward them as soon as he came back from his gambling suspension. The gambling suspension he has absolutely no remorse for, and doesn't think he did anything wrong.

I'm sure this has already been posted here but it's worth a look if you haven't seen it.
A good first touch is one thing. But his spacial awareness at that age is truly unnatural. I've not seen anything like that at his age. What a special talent we have on our hands.
Hate to break it to you mate but most footballers are cock-wombles. I guarantee you we already have a fair few in our squad.

Once Archie got the phone call from big Ange that was it.
My point is that it's kinda self-explanatory that Spurs won't "try" for strikers who aren't considered better than Parrott; and if they can't get one who markedly better, then naturally they'll stick with Parrott. One doesn't need to be an ITK to "inform" people about that.
But I hope a club of the size of Spurs wouldn't waste time even trying for CF's who may be marginally better than Parrott.
Thus said, it's sometimes hard to predict the trajectory of a player, particularly a CF, and how they'll do in a league like the EPL. Names like Shevchenko, Kezman, Mutu, Pizarro, Morata, Crespo, Higuain, Falcao and, more recently, Marital and Højlund comes to mind.
It's a make it or brake season for Scarlett and Veliz, though.
Below are the CF's who've been heavily linked to Spurs for the past season and who would be available for the right price and who could strengthen Spurs - but, apart from maybe Kılıçsoy and David, at a very steep price.
Isak and Osimhen are the only 2 I safely could say would right away would strengthen Spurs, but would cost £100m+; while I am unsure it's worth the risk paying the price needed to get the other one's.
David, and Kılıçsoy are the only "affordable" ones' but there are "doubts" about them.
Ivan Toney
Marcus Rashford
Dominic Solanke
Tammy Abraham
Evan Ferguson

err they’re forwards. I thought that’s what forwards do provide goals and assists. But what would I know, just call me old fashioned
If Mathys Tel really is available then Spurs should go all out to get him - but I doubt he want to leave Bayern or that Bayern are willing to sell...

“I'm very happy. It means a lot to me. I've learned so much already here. When you play for Bayern, you want to win every title, you have to play with heart and energy,” Tel said after penning his new deal

Southampton have approached Bournemouth for talks over a deal for Max Aarons.
The Saints want to sign Aarons as their new right-back amid uncertainty over the future of Kyle Walker-Peters.
West Ham have held talks for Walker-Peters amid Saints' interest in signing their midfield Flynn Downes.
But there is also interest in Walker-Peters from Brighton and Tottenham.
Toney would be my choice. He fits Ange’s system in that he can hold it up, back to goal and lay it off to advancing forwards/mids. He’s strong bodied and good in the air. He’s also a proven goal scorer in the epl.
The others most mentioned ie Gimenez and David pare unknown and different. David is my least favourite. I’ve watch him play a few times and he doesn’t look that special. A poor man’s Johnson imo though he does have a good finish. He’s not an Ange type cf imo.
giminez I know little about but scoring in the Dutch League doesn’t mean a lot. VJ scored goals for fun over there and did sfa at spurs

Not sure we'll sign Toney for the sort of money that Brentford will demand. Especially considering he's 28/29 half way through next season. Does that really fit the profile of a Spurs signing?
They'll probably want £40m+ but as he's only got a year left on his contract, fuck knows if they'll get it.
Still a good player, despite his form last season. He'd make us better for sure but again, it's down to the money and his age. Can't see it happening.

He doesn’t have the mobility or quick enough combination play for me. He’s a target man for a direct team. he would flop here imo.
Does he really fit Ange's system of play? Usually his striker is not that style. At Celtic he had Kyogo who wasn't like that at all. He wasn't great in the air and didn't hold the ball up, just ran onto balls and tucked them home. Sonny plays similar to that. I'm not personally against signing Toney I think he is an upgrade on Richarliason. Not sure who they will sign but most are risky.
I said all this before but I was called a troll
People just doing way too much talking about Toney as if he's washed, he just doesn't represent the ideal striker they want because he's not young and isn't a sexy name.
Along with Devine and Moore.

It's less that he is washed and more that he just doesn't have the track record to suggest he's a top level CF (best top flight season has him scoring 11 non penalty goals) his reputation far exceeds his credentials for some peculiar reason. Throw in age, meaning he's unlikely to improve, and his persona/gambling ban and it's easy to see why people aren't interested imv
But we know Kyogo would get eaten alive in the Prem, we struggled with Sonny playing with his back to goal and his first touch isn't great anyway so the ball kept coming back and wouldnt stick, Toney immediately improves both of those things.
Who does?
