Transfer discussion thread

[Magma]

he was injured pretty much from september to february.

 

[RossFC]

Also Yaya Toure has retired from football, according to his agent.

All quiet on the western front for us as we still have two huge games to come.

Interesting window for you guys coming up imo. i mean, you're in the CL final and you've got a points tally that would have won the league in just about every other season. Where exactly do you strengthen? Is it more about improving the quality depth and keeping the side settled, or do you go for another class player or two, I guess, in midfield and the center of defence?

I reckon a striker to replace Sturridge,
An attacking mid to replace Lallana,
A backup right back to replace Clyne (So Gomez can stay at CB)
A backup LB to replace Moreno (Although Milner could do that)
Possibly a backup keeper if Mignolet leaves.
Lastly a CB if the club chooses to sell Lovren.

Not sure how I feel about this. Haven't watched loads of Everton, but when I have he looks decent enough on the ball, but shocking and lazy defensively.

I reckon having him next to Sissoko would be good, Also having Winks in and around the midfield too.

Gomes is quality. One of those players you feel can step up for a top 6 club.

 

[Zidane98]

Interesting that Rabiot hasnt been snapped up yet. Completely ostracized by PSG for letting his contract expire.

More likely it just hasn't been announced or he hasn't decided. He'll have plenty of offers.

He got the kiss of death a while back. Not rated by Bojan so therefore alright.
All day elite youf that was gonna come through......

Feel for the toffees if this is the case. It’s a dog eat dog world I guess and one day to the next you can go from the hunter to the hunted. Hopefully Bradesmaen will still be onboard the spurs CL train if this does happen

 

[RossFC]

Wonder if Gueye goes to PSG too. Everton would need a new midfield to go along with another CB and a maybe a new striker.

So just the six new signings then for a champion league finalist and a team who is likely to finish on 97 points

Pretty much just a bit of deck chair changing with depth players that leave. Maybe 1 or 2 would be biggish signings.

So.... This is not a drill.
We may actually be signing a footballer. This is so confusing.

 

[RossFC]

I forgot that Sissoko rejected Everton and turned his phone off when Koeman called, to join Spurs too haha.

So yeah, as i said earlier mostly improving the depth, but keeping a settled squad. After Van Der Saar’s comments recently, i wouldn’t be at all surprised if you were one of the clubs to go really hard at De Ligt to partner Van Dijk.

Haha and for so long we were all wishing that he hadn’t. Now he’s shaping up as a key man for us in a Champions League final. Football is mad.

Spurs ruining football.

 

[WealstoneRaider]

There was always a very good player in there with Sissoko, anyone who watched Euro2016 knew that. Apparently he’s a massive arsenal fan and he wanted to move there. Perhaps in some ways that contributed to his slow start at spurs, coupled with the fact the supporters then got on his back. They love him now though, probably going to win our PotY award

 

[WealstoneRaider]

It feels good to be able to post in this thread again

 

[mike123]

He might be reconsidering his stance on Tottenham.

Haha he actually didn’t an Instagram Q&A a couple of months ago and was asked if he was still an Arsenal fan, and his response was something like, “i’ve forgotten this team. who?” After the sheer amount of love he’s received from the fans and everyone involved with the club this season, how could he not be a Spurs man now, It’s crazy to think that, after the start to his Spurs career, he’ll most likely receive the official Spurs player of the year award and, at the very least, forever be a cult hero, or depending on what happens in three weeks time, remembered with the likes of Mackay, Blanchflower, Ardilles etc as a genuine club legend.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

He might be reconsidering his stance one Tottenham.

So might Chiellini if we win.
Don't worry, haven't forgotten that one either.
