Thank goodness we're not signing Berahino
Begins? Poch has been linked with a move away for the past two years. Kane's been linked every month for 30 months to Utd, at least the record changed this week as it's now apparently an auction between *insert Chinese club* Madrid and Barca, include Alli to the auction. Trippier is going to West Ham, big Sam is buying Davies and Lloris is of to PSG or is it Madrid for the 10th time. Son is going back to Germany a long with Wimmer, Toby hasn't confirmed a new deal so therefore is 110% off to the worlds Eliete, dispite of courses forgetting the new deals we tied down the other players too but they don't count as it's Tottenham. Rose is off to Chelsea, but he may have changed his mind as the allure of both the Manchester clubs to to good to ignore. Walker to Chelsea and let's not forget Dier also on his way out to Bayern Munich or again Chelsea (because they did take Willian from us, so it must be true). Lamela is currently crippled in Italy so without any doubt he is off to Roma or Inter. He can get discount on a fight if he buys in bulk with Erikssen when he finally signs for Juve (god Levy drives a hard bargain it's taken 3yrs of constant negotiations to get that over the line). McDermott is off to Utd.....and so it begins;
EXCLUSIVE: Mauricio Pochettino in line to replace Luis Enrique at Barcelona
Barcelona join Real Madrid in chase for Spurs star Dele Alli
From such reliable luminaries as the Daily Fart and the Daily Shitter, I'm not too worried... but you know how these stories gather pace, and before you know it, everyone is being sold, and we're left with a midfield of Sissoko and Tommy Carroll!
I got 'culled' a few years ago, not long after I registered because I didn't post more than eight times a day or some bullshit like that.
Seems like I missed a trick and could have pasted in 'Thanks Prof, you're amazing' eight times every day like every other thread on there.
Nobody knew for certain that Dele would make the step up to PL standard. Or that it would happen so swiftly. If people had known this, we would have faced stiff competition for his signature.People knew he'd be good though, just not this good.
Knowing a player will be at least good in England is a huge stepping stone to a successful transfer.
Do we know if GKN is good in England? We haven't got a clue. No one does.
Considering that vs the Toby situation, it was a no brainer.
ITK from Grey Fox on SC
Wasn't given names this time...
He reminds me of Dembele in the way he uses his body to keep the ball away from the opposition....
Jol strikes me as a fun coach who probably doesn't have the same drive and determination that Pochettino has which is why he's failed pretty much every where he's gone and couldn't quite make the next step.
Yes please. Top player who can pass the ball, links play, has creativity and can tackle and score goals, no disrespect to everton, he would improve playing with a much higher calibre squad. Not sure about the price tag but I guess that's the market rate.
