Changes to the midfield you say?Right now there is no real indication of what kind of changes to the midfield Pochettino is planning.
Not if they include signings!

Lyons midfield and forward line has a lot of young high prospects already playing well.
Tousart, Aouar, Maxwell Cornet and Terrier are all players that I've not personally seen linked elsewhere and may be worth "looking into signing"
Biggest issue is Aulas. Their chairman.
Not the worst signing if he could stay fitJust saw some bollocks about going for Sturridge for a free in the summer.

West Ham signing. We can do better
I don't think that King would be that expensive, he's got a contract until 2021 (so one year left next summer) and he's 27, I like to think that we could get him for something like £25m.Is this honestly less preferable than blowing 70m on the likes of King or Wilson?

Not so sure about this one.

Good bench player and that's it.
We need new fullbacks and a proper Moose replacement.
Also, let's go for Depay while we're at it. Think he has matured enough at OL to have another crack at the PL. Spurs and Poch would be ideal for him.
I'd pass on Cornet (talent but ver erratic) and Terrier. But I'd add the LB Mendy to that list (and of course Ndombele) and even Chiekh is a decent young DM/6 in the Dacoure mode.

Agree on the additional names and only didn't mention Mendy as I was talking about further up the field and N'dombele because he's a big name.
Believe we were after Chiekh and could have got him dirt cheap before he went to Lyon but might be wrong? Did he not go there for peanuts ie 2m odd ?
