Edit
Seen the links today and it reminded me Lucien Agoume was previously on the list, and would be happy for us to take a punt. He's a robust ball winner who passes forwards. Profiles well. Putting back on the list.

He is an outstanding player, and if true at just 35 ,million then we have pulled down Madrid's pants and took an almighty dump in them.

At twenty five and coming into his prime he will run rings around any midfielder and he and Palhinha will at least offer us some fucking steel in midfield.

Excellent signing.

Gallagher does nothing to move the needle for us. If anything its a hinderance to our younger players getting game time to develop.

Very much see it as a cheap punt that ENIC deem to be an undervalued investment. As usual it will pan out like every other signing like this we make.

Unambitious. Hopefully, he goes to Villa and we have someone else to bring in.

How much younger do you want to go than the age of Bergvall, and Gray?

You jest talking about "getting game time to develop" no PL team does that anymore.

You do know that Bent's is finished for the season?

Thirty five million for a player coming into his prime, eager to impress in a WC year.

Fourteenth placed Spurs not attracting top tier players.

FFS

Get off of Football Manager you fool.

35m is about the same price as Atletico paid for him about 18 months ago - and Chelsea hawked him round multiple clubs to sell him.

So the price seems to be where most DoF's in europe rated him for his qualities/experience which must mean some people are missing something that the professionals spotted to get to that price rather than the higher price some seem to think he's worth.
 
Interesting to see people criticise the club for not showing balls like Villa and then criticising the club when we swoop in and sign him.

Some people.

He immediately improves our midfield and would be a great signing if confirmed.

Need to sign a proper passer too and then that’s a pretty big overhaul of the midfield.

The fact we keep getting linked to CBs despite having about 500 does suggest this might be in the club/manager's thinking too.

Simply don't see why we'd keep buying CBs unless the plan is to start (at least occasionally) playing VdV at LB. And/or we think Vuskovic needs another season on loan so need additional cover.

Hard to see the club selling Romero in the summer given he's captain and extended his deal, but suppose it's not beyond the realms if we get a good offer.

Agree, but the best time to sell a player is after they've extended their contract and the current club has maximum leverage.

That said - I don't think his market is anything close to what his agent made it out to be. Atletico Madrid might be interested, but Real Madrid definitely aren't.
 
Bissouma - out
Connor - in

Will walk right into the team, and perfect replacement for the injured Bentencur. Similar profile to Bergvall, and can hopefully act as a mentor and allow them to rotate seamlessly. He will take Johnsons squad spot in the champs league.

Can't argue with that. Smart signing.

Now just need the coach to play them to their strengths, and stop lumping long balls!
 
Me, I would have signed Calvert l in the summer... That beside And we all know this guy... Large guy ... Nice touch and can play. Bit of a gentle giant...sort of where our loaner Manu is ATM... Well not anymore, the pennies dropped, watched him a few times and he's a fucking beast...puts himself about and is grief for any center bac and we all know he can finish.. but I 've said all of this on here b4 .. but this journo has said the same... Ditch our Loanees and buy this guy...

He's played for two very successful teams with winning of trophies and cups we can only dream of.

He wants to leave with one eye on a WC place, and the only thing that's missing is the due diligence done by fans supporting a team 14th in the PL and with record home losses.

He chose us over Villa a team that has torn Spurs a new ass twice this season.

Go figure.
