Yeah ok on the ignore list you go.
Do you think that Werner joined Spurs thinking he will be a squad player?
Do you think Drag expects to spend the rest of this season on the bench?
Note Dragusin will be u21 this season
Association:
5: Davies Johnson Forster Sessegnon Maddison
Club trained or U21:
3: Sarr, Skipp, Austin
So as it stands, if we sign Werner permanently, we would have to pick 2 players out of Sessegnon, Gil, Veliz to not be in a squad. If we bought another foreign player or even an association player this summer, we would have to ship out all 3.
Spursidol Am I missing something or is buying Gallagher not actually that helpful for our HG issue?
Couple of comments in bold able - and Dragusin is u21 this season under PL rules.
We'll have a few overseas trained players leaving before next season so will probably have no problems with likes of Veliz. Might be worth looking at sudoku post in the Spurs squad thread today.
Gallagher doesn't really help HG this season - but the real issue is he's hugely expensive/poor value for an HG player who really is not that good and limited upside - certainly not a starter for us when our injured and players at AFCON are back.
Better players at lower prices available (in summer if not now) or alternatively buy players such as Hackney or Wharton who will be at Gallaghers level but higher upside within months of joining Spurs.
Who gives a fuck what nationality players are, I just want good players first and foremost.
Well, he/Johnson and Kulusevski would fight over two spots.
There’s so much football to be played though so it would more likely be rotation and playing whilst Sarr/Betancur are rested.

I doubt we could get Hackney and Nusa for 45m. Brugge turned down 26m for Nusa in the summer and his stock has risen since then. I think Middlesbrough will look at Alex Scott's transfer at 25m and think Hackney is doing better and has longer left on his contract than Scott did, so will probably be asking 30 to 35m.
Personally would be happy with either Gallagher or Hackney to challenge Sarr for the #8 (both have similar stats). Wharton isn't an 8 though, he is a 6 and he would cost a lot since he just signed a new contract.
Gallagher will not sign for THFC hoping he will be fighting for a spot with Kulu and Johnson and we would be mugs to spend loads of money on the guy to sit on the bench.
Gallagher ain't happening.
Vicario
What post would that be?Deleted your post your thirsty bitch sudoku
And how would you even know if you have me on ignore?
At last someone with balls.
He'd replace a midfielder.
Would he be a better option than Højbjerg & Skipp is the question.
And what are the other options available.
I'm not enamored with Gallagher, nor do I have any sort of authoritative opinion on Hackney/Wharton/the Belgian kid as players, but I will say I think we should be beyond giving a shit about the ramifications of our business on Chelsea. Our only consideration w/r/t transfers should be ourselves. If Ange and the brain trust think Gallagher is an important part of the answer, then I'm happy to support that decision until they demonstrate they no longer warrant the benefit of the doubt. Whether buying that player helps Chelsea out of their self-inflicted mess or not shouldn't even be part of the equation if we're really going to act like a big team.
