Takes a special talent to play three positions badly.
Do you remember these and how excited we all were at their arrival ?....nice to think we are a bit more selective with our money now but I fully admit to being nothing short of ecstatic at the time.....
Softly,softly catchee monkey .....this transfer window has a long way to go yet for our club. By the time we play Juventus I reckon we'll have at least one more new signing.

These two comments made me laugh out loud at work
Defending isn't his strongest point, much like a lot of modern fullbacks, but he is absolutely rapid and his pace makes up for a lot of mistakes. I watch almost all Barca's La Liga games and he is a constant threat down the right.
You work? I thought you were a hippie!

Report: Tycoon could be set to launch Spurs bid to Daniel Levy
Spurs Web – Tottenham Hotspur Football News / T.A Bharadwaj / 39 minutes ago
According to a report in The Evening Standard, American business tycoon Todd Boehly, who holds 20% stake in Major League Baseball team the Los Angeles Dodgers, is considering making a bid to buy a stake in Tottenham Hotspur.
Boehly is backed by his private investment firm Eldridge Industries, which controls shares in a wide array of businesses from real estate, insurance, and sport.
The report claims that the 46-year-old is interested in investing in the Premier League and is considering two London based clubs closely – Chelsea and Tottenham.
It is suggested Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich values the Blues at around £2.5bn and that Tottenham are worth more owing to the recent upgrades of their training ground and stadium.
The report goes on to claim that Boehly currently favours the Lilywhites over Chelsea but it remains to be seen if Spurs chairman Daniel Levy and Joe Lewis – partners in the investment company ENIC International, are willing to sell the club.
Spurs Web Opinion
You can never rule out the possibility of Levy or ENIC deciding to sell the club if they receive a good offer given how pragmatic an operator the Spurs chairman is. However, it is unlikely that he will be tempted to walk out just when the club looks on the cusp of doing something special.

Lucas. Ndombele Winks. Son

Bid to buy a stake is certainly different than bid to buy a club. And there is another thread on it (sort of).
Could the fans buy ENIC out.

This was my thinking as well except with Ndombele we wouldn’t need to worry about having a back 4!!!

Relegation beckons with such a formation!
Son and Lucas a WBs? Son played once as a WB and it was a disaster. What about KWP/Aurier and Davies, Sissoko, Dier?
We tried this 'all out attack' under Ossie. It didn't work.
