I am not sure anyone would care if we lose any of these players baring Bergvall who is the only one who looks like he can improve. The rest are a known commodity, regressing or don't have as high a ceiling as first thought.For those concerned about losing Spurs players
- Players with contracts ending in 2025 will walk at end of June
- Players with contracts ending in 2026 the club might be able to extend some contracts for an extra year or they are likely to be sold. My sense is that Bentancur and Son are likely be here next season, Bissouma And Gil sold.
- Players with contracts ending in 2027 will probably be in negotiations with Spurs to extend contracts ( Devine, Scarlett, Moore, Keeley, Abbott) with others likely sold if price is right (Romero, Richarlison)
- Where the player contract has more than 2 years left on his contract, Spurs are in control of the situation, player has to stay unless Spurs agree otherwise..
Full list of Player contracts by year in which contracts end :
2025 Reguilon Davies Forster, Werner (loan), Robson, Whiteman 2026 Bentancur Gil Bissouma, Craig, Son 2027 Romero Richarlison Devine , Scarlett, Moore, Keeley, Abbott 2028 Porro Maddison Solomon Kulusevski Vicario Phillips, Spence, Ajayi, Akhamrich, Russell-Denny 2029 Van de Ven, Veliz, Johnson, Austin, Donley, Gunter, Odobert, Lankshear, Bergvall, Hall, Dorrington, Olusesi 2030 Dragusin Vuskovic , Udogie , Sarr, Gray, Solanke, Yang, Danso 2031 Kinsky, Melia

I'm not saying we'd still be thundershit, just that we need to manage our expectations. It's gonna take a lot more than just a new manager and some typical Levy signings to jump from 16th to where the 9th richest club in the world should really be.
But you never know, that bald cunt might get lucky and find another miracle worker a la Poch plus some gems like Toby & SuperJan, Dembele, Dele...
If we did exactly as you suggest and gave Donnely, Devine, Adjay,Solomon there game time under an actual coach I don't think we'd have been any worse.yeah. we have plenty of guys that can play in those spots that are young and hungry that are currently on the team. If we are gonna be bottom half may as well play the kids.
Bentancur is twice the player Biss is.
We're loaded, pal.
I'm 1 zillion per cent with you re new owners, man. Look how much Newcastle & Villa have improved...now imagine what we could achieve.Where are we saying this club should be?
Because if we think the same then the only thing that gets us there is new owners
Not sure if that is a positive, I don't like Golden Grahams, prefer Raisin Wheats
Tbh we need more quality in midfield if we get Gomes. Possibly two more. A top striker as well. Quite like that ekitike from frankfurt. Have a feeling though he will end up a gooner in summer. Definitely need a top striker, defender to replace romero and keeper. Vicario is starting to get on my nerves.Tell Madrid they can have Romero... We get Gallagher in return... Add that to Gomes (free) ... That's Midfield sorted.
Sell Son, Richarlison, Bissouma and Bentancur... Get Eze and Guirassy... Strike force done.
Sell Dragusin, Soloman and Porro, Get Tah (Free) and Hernandez( who's apparently available for 30m).
Thats quality and few quid in the bank
Everton would. They know he’ll score 15 goals a season for them and is a cult hero.30m for Richarlisonwho is going to pay that other than Saudi and he's already said he's not going there. Be lucky to get 10m for Biss and Betancur is more 15m - 20m. Nobody is paying 30m for him. I would hope to get more than 55m for Romero as he is desperate to leave.
Don't forget it is going to be difficult to attract players
Thanks to the Internet they are able to check the PL table and don't give me that old line about tripling their wages there is news on that as well
The teams above us can all match or better what we offer and they are all going somewhere.
yeah , but that isn't a very high bar to beat , not sure myself that Bentancur is the future for us .
