Toby trippier and rose all out? That ain’t it chief.
Its sad to watch videos from the squad of 2016 and see so many of them leaving. I really love that teamPainful rebuild
Just to be clear - I'm not having a go at either of them if we sell Rose (and it's kinda clear that despite club PR, Poch has been happy to shift him for at least the past three windows now, given Rose's story about the club trying to sign him who wanted to "check if he was mental").Meh, he's wanted out for 2 years now.... No cause to vilify DL & MP.

The reception I predict it'll get on social media, however...
This is going to sound like a massive ****tease but several of our ITKs told us about Trips and Rose several days ago and have been keeping us updated but were told absolutely not to make it public.
I know that's frustrating and sounds like revisionist bull**** but it is true. That's the main reason the ITK thread has been empty for a few days, everyone was sitting waiting for this news to break so they could start talking again!
Ben Dover here. At your service.Am feeling a little uneasy about seeing a first team regular being sold, without any indication of incoming replacements. Bad season or not, he played a lot of games.
I do have faith in the club that there is a plan of action, however transfers (Tanguy aside) have not been a strong point and my bums a bit squeaky.
Anyone wish to soothe my hole?
Feel better now?I am not sure what our transfer plans are at the moment, I think it's great we got early business done with Ndombele but I have to say I am getting a little nervous seeing all the names we are apparently going to sell.
We have so many players sitting on our books which offer us nothing that could be sold and the money reinvested, instead we seem to be looking to sell first team players which is concerning to me.
Our issue in recent seasons has been lack of competition for places and poor depth, our first 11 has not been the issue, surely we should be building on what we already have or if we plan on replacing at the very least get the replacements signed first BEFORE we sell that way we don't risk leaving ourselves short.
I dunno, it's times like the Burnley game last season and even the CL final where we lacked impact players from the bench, I don't think we can afford to let our best players go without knowing for sure whatever replacements we bring in will be of equal quality because if they aren't then what can we turn to? Especially if our bench quality is as lacking as last season.
Not picking you out particularly BF3 but the word defence is spelt 'DEFENCE!!' Can everyone stop spelling it the American way??! Cheers. Rant over......
Davi Alves, he’s bloody 36, doesn’t matter how talented you are at that age your legs are starting to go. Just think of old man Alves against Son or Lucas, he’d get ripped to pieces unless he had a good DM and CB next to him to cover.
Poch is going TOTAL FOOTBALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lucas - Winks - Ndombele - Son
Eriksen - Dele

I like our colonial cousins and love going on holiday to the USofA. Fabulous place.
But you have to AX questions of nation that feels the need to shorten 3 letter words to 2.
Origi scored in the CL final and won, is he better than Kane? Twat
Could work out for them since Sissoko does enough work to cover for Manolas, Pellegrini, and Zaniola. Pretty cunning by Baldini but surely they don't value Zaniola at 100M?On Monday, though, both Calciomercato and Gazzetta dello Sport report that Spurs could offer both Alderweireld AND Moussa Sissoko in a swap deal.
Spurs may swap two big name players for Roma's Nicolò Zaniolo — OneFootball
Tottenham are being strongly linked with a swoop for Roma's teen sensation Nicolò Zaniolo. On Sunday, reliable Italian journalist Alfredo Pedulla claimed Zaniolo has told Spurs he would be happy to join them this summer. The 19-year-old attacking midfielder is valued at approximately €50m, which...apple.news
