sessegnon brothers set to sign new contracts at fulham.

 

[Cooldude]

Right move for his future, no way he's gonna get the first team football he needs at us or Spurs

All but confirms we will buy a central defender then. Cant go into a season fighting on four fronts with just Matip, Lovren and Ragnar.

Looks like Manolas didn't rock up to his medical.

I know there's plenty of time to go but Tottenham have been weirdly quiet this window considering the significant investments being made by the rest of the top 6. Even Everton are spending big. Any idea re: likely ins and outs?

He's probably realised he can have as much money playing in a real league.

They have a stadium to pay for.

Edit: and Levy's a tight wad.

Who's this young bloke we're well into, Borino i think his name is, Has played for some great clubs, Must have good pedigree.

 

[Milanista28]

Manolas will sign for Chelsea.

 

[The Filth Wizard]

Manolas will sign for Chelsea.

I can see Arsenal trying to get involved for that money too. Mertesacker on last legs, Gabriel average and IIRC we were very deep into Manolas last year.

 

[chef]

Would rather keep Ake.

 

[Gosha]

Manolas will sign for Chelsea.

Yuck

That's a furphy, makes it out like we've been spending big but now can't. Levy made it clear at a recent meeting with the supporters trust there'd be money made available for transfers and it wouldn't be a pittance.

Quiet externally maybe but that's mainly due to the leaks being stopped. We'll sign players. Likely 3-4 depth players.

To be fair, and as you've pointed out, the Spurs starting XI is fine, you just need a striker or two, a CM and a CB for cover.

Borini, He's garbage. I reckon you'll end up hating him.

Hopefully you sign Smalling.

Don't see us signing any CBs this window. Koscielny, Musfafi, Holding, Chambers, Mertesacker, Gabriel plus Monreal freed up to play there now with Kolasinac coming in. Overstocked already.

Not the same list of spots. Need an AM and Winger, a replacement for Wimmer and a 3rd GK. satisfied with CM and we won't buy a striker.

 

[Cooldude]

Did Manolas really say he didn't turn up coz he wants to be paid in euros not rubles?

You're happy with Jansen and Son as back ups?

Yes.

 

[go you pups]

Imo we need a left footed attacker if Lamela isn't up to scratch, someone who can play say RW/RF/LF/10 etc

Definitely need a CM, I'd imagine we are in for Barkley and imo Poch will turn him into an 8 if we get him, but nothing will happen there until late in the window, typical Levy style.

Kolasinac should go ok

He's a big body himself too, IIRC he's a similar size to Kolorov

Haha my post was taking the piss.
