Summer 2019 transfer thread

[Bazali]

I quite like Davies as a player and a person from what I can tell.
He isn't that quick, doesn't deliver good balls very often, can get done badly by elite level players, but is also pretty solid defending.
He's a decent enough top 4 type player - not good enough for a title challenger imo.

That just about sums up how I feel about Ben
Good lad but hopeless against pace

 

[Bazali]

Davies is good enough to be our starting lb. Rose hasn’t been at his best for quite some time now

Rose is still our best FB by some distance

 

[Bazali]

The Legend Danny Rose was largely absent from last years campaign and we did well without him. His time is up let him get his retirement contract in France and ride off into the sunset

We would have done better with him imv

 

[pipes]

So, from the looks of it we are in the process of selling both our 1st team fullbacks with no credible links to replacements. Also the possibility of losing Toby. Therefore weakening our defence.


I have every confidence the club knows what they are doing.

We are hiring a new first team coach. Ossie something. Argentinian fella. Loves a 1-4-5 formation. We’ll be fine.

 

[Bazali]

What if Poch has decided he doesn't want attacking FBs anymore?

What if he wants FBs that can actually defend?

But Davies can’t defend against genuine pace such as Mane who tore him a new one

Osborne?

Reminds me of the Trippier is better than Walker argument being put forward on here 2 years ago.
Rose pushes for a place in any top 6 PL side. Davies most certainly doesn't.

And yet there's hardly a queue of prem teams banging on the door for him...... hmmm

 

[sammyspurs]

Davies isn't fit to clean Danny Rose's boots

Rose is a myth.
He’s not great in defence, and offers zero in attack.
He creates a buzz around everything he does.......but 99% of it comes to nothing.

He’s fools gold. Davies more than laced his boots when Rose was injured. A far more rounded level headed player.
No point crossing if you can’t cross eh.

jan jan hes our man, if he cant do it. no one can!

media were well beyond having a semi for Sancho with his blistering pace and skill, only for a firm shut down by our number 5.

sorry I keep banging the vertonghen for left back drum, but I really would just play him there in suitable games, which generally would be up against top wingers

Rose doesn't displace anyone in the top 6.

Not even top 8

 

[B-0-Sspurs]

We've decided we can score more goals than the opposition, so defence is optional extra !

Poch been listening to Ossie too much!

 

[sammyspurs]

That isn’t actually a big thing. Full backs are generally offering nothing these days except the Liverpool lads.

The fact people are wanking over Sessengon and Wan Bissaka says everything you need to know about that position.

So what, Rose could challenge Luke Shaw, Mendy, Delph, Zinchenko, Kolasinec, Alonso and Robertson for a start......ooooooooonhhhhh

So could Davies and your fucking delusional if you think he couldn’t

 

[bus-conductor]

Let’s just cut out the middle man and sign Fekir

If the we are signing a player to play ARM/AM I’d take 20m Fekir over 60m Lo Celso.

Hopefully we are signing LoCelso to play as an 8 though, in which case I’ll take him.

 

[Nabil Bentaleb]

Davies is a great squad player but never a starter for a top team. The same with dier.

 

[ShutUpPatrik]

But Davies can’t defend against genuine pace such as Mane who tore him a new one

This happened once.

Davies has adapted his game and has not struggled much against the dreaded pacey winger since.

Majority of the goals we have conceded this previous season came from our right flank or centrally. Davies, Rose or Jan, it didn't matter. Our left flank was locked down tight.

 

[Borodin55]

Osborne?

Now you're just getting Paranoid

 

[Radical Rei]

Rose is still our best FB by some distance

He's our best FB yes, but by some distance?

It's not 2016 anymore.

Report: Tottenham reject chance to sign top midfield target – but why?
Spurs Web – Tottenham Hotspur Football News / Seb Jenkins / moments ago

Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly rejected the chance to sign one of their top midfield targets this summer, Dani Ceballos.
The central attacking midfielder starred for Spain at the U21 European Championships, with his team eventually lifting the trophy itself.
Sky Sports reported earlier this month that Spurs were in talks with Real Madrid over a possible signing of the 22-year-old playmaker.
In fact, at one stage, Estadio Deportivo reported that Spurs were in advanced negotiations and were close to signing the player.
However, Le Confidencial now claim that the player is close to a move to Woolwich instead after Tottenham rejected the chance to land him.
The report cites the reasons behind this decision as Real Madrid’s refusal to let Ceballos leave on a permanent deal or include an option to buy in the loan contract.
As a result, a one-year loan deal to Woolwich before returning to Madrid seems like the most likely option at this stage, with Spurs having to look elsewhere.
