Back to transfers.

I'd love us to be after any of these players:

Nico Williams
Xavi Simons
Kvaratshkelia
Kubo
Rafa Leao

That's off the top of my head.

I'm not fussed if we get them for 40m and 120k pw or 90m and 250k pw.

Yep, would be incredibly stupid to sign a ridiculously good striker who will inevitably end up at a top club and win lots and lots of silverware. We wouldn't want that, it wouldn't be fiscally responsible at all.

Such an odd, odd mentality.

We'd be ruining our chances of balance sheet glory further down the line

So a hard no from me

And if we have that kind of money lying round, I'd sooner we spend it on a new hotel or spa resort

Don't even know what position he'd play but I'm not sure it would matter, he'd rip teams to shreds anyway.

What do you think it would take to get him? If PSG want to make Leao type move to save face after Mbappe leaving, there is a chance Simons could be available no?

I’d guess 70m or so. Probably 150k a week or so but then these figures are all plucked from my ass, so…

But he’s really good. If we could get him then go for it. For me he’s that notch below a Wirtz who is insanely good and probably City bound.

I didn't even bother mentioning Wirz because he's obviously the plan for life after KDB. Maybe nit this summer but if not the one after.

I'd be more than happy if we dropped 70m and 150k pw on Simons tbh. I'd definitely hope we are willing to go that high for a player that good.

Williams is already on north of 200k pw.

A couple of days back, I set you ‘The Luis Diaz’ question.
All things being equal, why would Williams come to Spurs rather than Liverpool?
It’s almost as if you don’t think that players have any agency.

What makes you think he has the choice of Spurs or Liverpool?

Why did Dragusin choose Spurs over Bayern?

Why did Bergvall choose Spurs over Barca?

What is your point?

Do you have a point?

Sure

But the reputation he came with to TFC was the man who dominated CM against ManCity in CL for Lyon

Yeah no doubt. Ndombele was the biggest and most exciting signing we’ve ever made as a club, he was quite high profile.

Kvara is the step up from that. He’s Wirtz tier where you’re talking a top, top prospect who already players for a ‘tier B’ club.
