Ndombele failure is wholly on Ndombele. He was wanted the world over and it was a coup for us to get him. The change of manager did not impact his love of Pizza Hut.

Off topic. Kyle walker saying he'd rather won a trophy at us than man city. Always one of us walker. City was just a marriage of convenience (money).
True in terms of letting himself down although ideally we might have picked that up with better scouting. He had the world at his feet talent wise, could have been one of the best midfielders in world and played like one for France and Lyon for 1-2 seasons. However even with the right mentality he wasnt the best suited for a team like Jose or Nuno where sitting deep for long periods without the ball was the main requirement.
Before our EL success Levy was making it known that were almost broke, going put of business.
If that is the case and we have a large number of contracts to pay off this Summer then every penny counts.
We have cover on the left wing (depending on the future of Son) with Odobert, Moore and Solomon (yet to be decided).
Take that money, send Tel back and put that money towards Eze.
I think Frank already understands that we do need some experience in the front three, and not more players for the future.
There must be something that Lange and the former backroom staff see in him that we don't and i would guess that it the report is true then Frank must have agreed. I can't see Frank blowing that money this Summer if funds are limited.
What a ridiculous take. He's a striker, his job is to finish off moves created by others, by being in the right place at the right time. When those opportunities are provided for him, he finishes them more often than not.
He is a forward for a CL club, quite literally.
Not sure he deserves the name calling, he turned up in the final
The very reason we want rid.
I can't remember another single game where he broke sweat.
Sausage obviously too young to remember Duncan, Lineker, Allen and the like.
Stupid comment to suggest that any striker is a "tap in merchant".
In a season where Solanke had no support, little continuity of players alongside him in a system where he was flogged to death yet still produce 16 goals and 7 assists is a very good return.
Frank will get him in the top five goalscorer's next season.

LOL
but but they’re MAN YANITED
Rather he go there than scum tho.
No-brainer to move him on, no issue with that
I THINK he meant he'd swap ONE of (the many) trophies he won at City for winning the EUROPA LEAGUE at Spurs...
I don't think he meant ALL of them!
I think he meant all of them

Nice of you to let our in-house geniuses off the hook.
The way they didn't do their due diligence and gave zero shit about his known attitude issues is gross negligence, but okay.
Would be very surprised if any spurs fan wasn’t touching themselves when the announcement of Ndombele transfer happened. He was an exceptional player with his ball control and work in tight spaces - as close to a Dembele replacement as was possible. His fitness and attitude issues and consequent fall from grace was his own fault.
