Wonder what total spend was for premier league this summer. Must be 3 billion or near. Obscene amount tbh. That could buy a much needed hospital somewhere. Even 5 per cent of that going to decent cause could help out somewhere.
The must really not fancy Lookman at all. He is such an obvious alternative.
Should have got Lookman. He's currently better than Odobert and Tel.
Either those two develop and overtake Lookman or they don't and we sell them and buy someone better.
I don't see the risk here.

Whilst it leaves us short, it doesn’t leave us with shit we can’t flog. If Savinho isn’t playing by January we will be able to swoop right in and on better terms.
I do understand frank has to try and get a tune out of Tel and Odobert. Both left wingers of front 3.
Exactly. Frustrating now but it is definitely the right long term approach.
We've seen Liverpool do this for years. While United always find an alternative and never seem to have any strategy.
If we didn't really fancy Lookman and Ake then I'm glad we didn't sign them.
Tempered expectations from me.
to cover Solanke and provide starter quality at RW, CDM and CAM is a good window.
If we can't get Savinho, which is City's prerogative then none of the apparent alternatives enthuse me too much.
More disappointed Gundogan is going to Galatasaray which surely affects us shipping off Bissouma.
Overall a good window from Spurs.
Work hard to identify a CB and LW for January or next summer.

Could have kept every Scouser on disability benefits for up to 3 weeks
8/10 window for me. Top 4 challenge and a trophy is requirement for me. Minimum requirement European place.
Think Tel has to keep on the striker role. Can’t see him as a winger and making it. Odobert is much more a winger by profile.
We are not getting top four
Liverpool alone have a potential outlay of pushing half a billion quid (488m) I believe.
Tel has quality imo but needs to be more explosive when he receives ball rather than hold onto ball too long.
Tel is 4th choice behind RKM, Richy and Solanke now. I would actually loan Tel somewhere so he can get games. He won't get anything but Carabao with us. Odobert should get games as we only really have two wide forwards. Johnson and Kudus and maybe Deki.
If liverpool lose van dyck to a long term injury I dont think they will win title. Key player for them like vdv is for us
They’ve banged on about only looking to sign players, that will improve us.
Yet we’ve had all window to go big on a LW & to no surprise, we’ve come up short there, on deadline day.
