I don’t think you understand the point mate. Nobody is saying he is Lionel Messi, but if we are struggling to pay for let’s be honest, an unknown right back, what does that say when we actually want to sign the top quality central defender we need ? My point being, Spurs always fumble about in the transfer window. Pay the fucking asking price and stop dragging out transfers every single window, it’s so tiresome and predictable. We are then left with starting another season unprepared because of Levy’s stubbornness and inability to action a transfer properly.

100%.
Every single transfer.
No one is saying meet the asking price every time but surely there are occasions when the valuation is pretty much on the money..
Tanganga will be loaned IMO and that is a good idea. Maybe Norwich?
Dier, Davies and Rodon. Unless Joe-boy leaves we don't need a left sided CB.
Tanganga has played left side as well.
Sanchez and Toby need replacing. And of course Awfulier.
And also Takehiro is err..ambipedal.
If he isnt going to play then he needs a loan, absolutely.
Question is, with no Tomiyasu, would he play?
If no, then fine, makes sense to loan him and bring in Tomiyasu (assuming its thought he is more first team ready)
If yes, then there is more to think about there.
We havent had a natural LCB since Vertonghen left. We need one.
Im not averse to Davies being converted, has done ok for Wales, but Id expect us to focus more on that than RCB where basically its everyone else you mentions natural position.
Rodon is not really an ideal fit for the LCB in a back 3 and not good enough to start for us at LCB in a back 4.
Davies as the 6th CB would be ok.
Dier flat out sucks and shouldn't be used at all whether in the first 11 or as a bench player.
I would hope that we have better options than Rodon, Davies and Dier for the starting LCB position as that depth is terrible.
I get your general point.
In some (maybe even most) instances we should act quickly and if needed, pay few extra millions.
Just that - I am not sure this specific target is one of those instances. It seems way more like an opportunistic purchase rather than key addition (say Skriniar, Kouande). And I agree that with priority signings we should be quicker and more decisive. Yet I don't think that bargaining over more unknown player has direct implications on how we do the key-deals.
Might be wrong ofc.
He will deffo iron it out , 23 is still a baby in defenders terms.
It’s the kind of signing we usually do well with
The 4 stages of spurs grief.Hahaha, good old Spurs fans.
Day 1 -
"Never heard of Tomiyasu! Who the fuck is he?"
Day 2 -
"Oh, based on YT reels he seems bit risky option, not sure about him"
Day 3 -
"Well, seems we are not linked to everyone else better, so maybe we should then at least get this guy"
Day 4 -
"For fuck sake Levy, he is the most important target ever. I want him at my club at any cost. Why are you not willing to spend 200 mil on him. Just pay whatever they ask!!"

No chance of resolution for another 30 pages at least.
Come back to this in late July for an update to the last update.
Snoozefesr.

He’s far more dynamic than any version of Davies
If he’s from Okinawa, like Myagi, then I’m all in. Most centurions, highest age average of ‘healthful lifespan’ etc.
Much Calcium in those lands (closest to 2:1 N6/N3, along with Italy from memory, Italy more due to Olive rather than Sunflower as primary Oil), though they eat 90% Sweet Potato natively and are short arses due to very low protein, so this chap ain’t eating full traditional diet, given his height.

seems decent and i suppose the extra japanese shirt sales wouldnt go amiss. not sure how big is in japan i think doan is the most known. i have no idea tho to be honest
Come on, stop hanging in this thread. You're needed in the transfer thread for a quick visual medical of Thuram's tounge.
Not sure about that.
Heavier set players are never up and down the line types for long, look how Walker (the most athletically gifted of his generation by a mile) and how he’s had to adapt. TanGanga had a few games where he showed excellent potential as a running full back, but think that may have led him to a development path that leads to the susceptibility for the injuries he has.
If heavier, by proxy, when you run or take on any athletic endeavour, you create more metabolic churn, he does not appear to have the recovery potential to flourish at Spurs playing the way we/he wants IMO. Hopefully this new DOF will employ a couple of world class sports science researchers, then maybe they can get him a plan that works, change of diet/supps, because anybody with eyes for it can see Spurs players have been collectively exhausted for 3years now, creating successive inverted gestalt performances.
Where’s that? Maybe I have the starter on ignore…
Do you not think I may have had a point about Bergwijn and those hypo eyes…???
White film on his tongue? Sigh!!!
