Sounds like a plan, but who would you want as this proper 10?
Don’t want Savinho based on this comment alone.
If Daveyboy, just about the worst judge of a players abilities on this forum , which is full of people that are not good at judging abilities rates him, then he will be a disaster.
I’d love for us to throw our hat in the ring for Simon’s late and say unlike Chelsea we will build around you, you’ll play every week and then give him a big contract offer .. we won’t. Failing that the lad at Monaco has something about him .. failing that Damsgaard wouldn’t be the worst cheap option.
It wasn't for Brentford, Damsgaard played that role and was an AM/#10.
We also tried to sign MGW, so i think Frank definitely wants a #10.
Brentford don't face parked buses for roughly half the season like we do..... That's Franks own personal challenge; he needs to evolve to overcome that.
Positional semantics aside; we absolutely need someone to create for our fwd players.
Also with hopefully savinho and kudus on each wing too our dynamism will change i can't see simons happening but if we got those 2 in addition then the window changes alot
Romano saying the player is open to the move.
So the finger is only pointed at one direction if it doesn't happen
He was pretty poor for City. Don't see why they'd get double their money for him after he underwhelmed.
Not to be a downer, but:
Simons has his head turned up by Chelsea so I think that ship has sailed.
The lad from Monaco played at RW but some tacticos argued he likes taking up central positions so could be converted to #10... given Kudus can also play #10 in the same vein, I'm not sure it would make sense as the signing after Savinho.
Damsgaard would be a bit underwhelming and Brentford may not budge with the Mbuemo money in hand... look at how much Wissa is having to play up to engineer a move out.
Definitely does. But also not taking some average player just because he plays the 10.
He'll have to adjust his tactics
you must have me confused with someone else ya plum, got no idea who you are never seen your name before.
I’d take Eze in a heartbeat too, if that helps…
Always a good sign when the fans don't want to lose him and you have some here saying he isn't good enough for us
City definitely could use the PSR money. He was a £35m signing last year and if we paid say £50-60m (I wouldn’t spend more than £60m on him) that’s a lot of profit to put on their books.
Unfortunately they may hold out for a lot
I was thinking this earlier. We actually have a pretty decent back 4
The rest is very workmanlike but industrious enough
Agreed, our best bet is if Frank sets us up hard to beat … until we can recruit a bit of quality
And savinho wants to come i want players who want to play for spurs and not oh no its my.only option and down tools
Savinho has a decent right foot tbf, he’s not an entirely one footed player.Really like Savinho, but I have massive football OCD and this signing and having a lefty either wing would not help that.
