...meanwhile on SC there's page after page about Neto joining Spurs and how excited they are about it, after one of their Oracles spoke, "Neto has personally spoken with Ange and is keen."
How keen are his hamstrings, though?
Think it was only Giminez who was at the stadium.Him and Giminez were at the stadium for the scum game werent they. Seems a weird thing to do to invite them there if we weren’t keen on at least one of them.

You would imagine that, a deal must be quite advanced if he was at a game.
It’s a squad game. There would be times against extra defensive teams where we need more creativity and when both could play together. Then again, obviously against teams like Liverpool and City they wouldn’t work. There are more teams who try and shut up shop against us.Bit of a dumb thing to say tbh. I haven't seen Bryan Gil and Ndombele play together in our midfield either but I have a pretty good idea it wouldn't work.
Football is all about making judgements on things you don't know 100% on. Eze I've watched plenty at Palace, maybe you haven't - he's not a good defender. Maddison we all know is flimsy and also not a good defender. Play them both together in the same midfield and my judgement is our midfield would have more holes in it than a Swiss cheese. Ange likes his midfields to be high pressing and high energy - Sarr and Bentancur bring that. You can't just load it with G/A merchants, this isn't fantasy football.
The only way I could see Eze and Maddison playing together in the same midfield is late on against relegation fodder if you need a goal but they won't be starting together regularly and I'll bet my account on that.
There's a reason why the best midfields usually have a B2B to partner with their creative mid, because all midfields need balance. Woolwich ended up with Rice and Odegaard in the #8s, we had Sarr and Maddison, Chelsea had Gallagher and Palmer.
The only successful team I can think of that regularly uses two #10s is City, but (1) KDB isn't really a #10 anyway, he's a big fucker who runs hard and who can get stuck in if needs be, 2) they have the best #6 on the planet covering them, we don't, and 3) they have arguably the best manager of all time figuring out how to make it work.
It was definitely both of them. Doesn’t mean we’ll sign them, but got to be something in it.

€7m for Spence is not a high fee for a player of his age and ability.The club cant move forward until it writes off these players.
Surely you take what people are willing to pay. The reason they arnt fetching high fees is because they are shite
Gimenez could be good signing. He had fantastic numbers last season. Can he repeat or improve on that? That's always the problem with strikers, not many can do it again the next season.Him and Giminez were at the stadium for the scum game werent they. Seems a weird thing to do to invite them there if we weren’t keen on at least one of them.
Leeds' bid to make Joe Rodon's loan move from Tottenham permanent is set to collapse as he is likely to join a Premier League club, with Leicester, Ipswich and Southampton all holding an interest in the Wales defender, 26.

i read somewhere Villa would have had to sell off a lot more players had they not qualified for champo league cos of FFP. Assuming it’s not bollocks (big if), a deal with money plus an extra player for a thin squad is an offer they prob can’t afford to refuse. Will definitely miss Doug though as I thought he was their best player .It's weird that a team that has just qualified for the Champions League would be happy to sell one of their best players. That said, I suppose it will give more chances for Jacob Ramsay to play if he can stay clear of injury.
LOL.
