Is anyone else not concerned about the injuries in our squad.
Forget selling players. Even if we keep the same squad, we have so many injury risks that I can see a repeat of last season only worse.
We have players building a reputation for injuries :
Lamela
Wanyama
Dier
Aurier
Kane
Winks
Janssen?
Tripps to go. Possibly Rose?
GKN and KWP were out of favour.
That's an entire team of players.

I'd be happy with both of them staying but it would be a bad window for us, if we brought in just one player, this is our opportunity to really push on.
Notable that they're happy to pay 26m for this geezer, but not a similar amount for Toby.....
Just how much exactly is he expecting for wages?
Or are managers seeing something this forum isn't.
Not going to lie, if they announced Trippier being sold through emojis alone, I'd laugh.
You may think he's on the wane, but come on, at his age and reputation he's not a sub-25m player in today's market.... It's not like it would be particularly hard to top his current wages either.
I suspect the only one over-rating Toby is himself (see wage factor).
I still think Toby is carrying some sort of limiting injury that has changed his playing style and made him a shadow of his former self. He made more errors last season than in every other season combined.
If Toby was still 2017 Toby, he would have been snapped up by now, simple as.
I just unignored everybody, it still doesn't.
He also put in some killer performances.... The back-4 as a unit under-performed last year (arguably cos they weren't getting the requisite protection from MF due to our shitty diamond system).
Yeh, for about 70-100m!
The back four under performed for a lot of reasons, some days Trippier was woeful, some days Dav was making mistakes, ditto Toby, Juan, Jan. Ben and Danny. There is absolutely no arguing Dav, Toby and Trips had their poorest season at the club. Do we stumble into this season hoping everything suddenly gets sorted? Or do we plan for the future and adapt what was at times an unstable defence and get something more rounded.
Looks a hell of a lot like stumbling to me
I thought I'd just put this here. It's from a very respectable, if a little right-wing, newspaper:

Basically, it says loads of clubs would like to sign Bale but his agent is scuppering even the beginning of discussions because Bale doesn't want to go anywhere.
Bale no tiene quien le fiche porque no quiere que le fichen
Cumple 30 años y los intermediarios internacionales afirman que tiene mercado y es su negativa a irse, que su agente, Barnett, apoya, la que frena el interés de los clubes

Atletico Madrid have agreed a fee with Tottenham to sign England defender Kieran Trippier it is understood. The 28-year-old is expected to undergo a medical in Spain on Wednesday ahead of a potential move to the LaLiga outfit. Trippier, has spent the last four years at Tottenham and started...
What's that got to do with the apparent lack of demand for Toby? ...Or indeed his suspected high wage demands? You're arguing against a point that I've not, and you hadn't made previously.
As for 'everyone' being poor... Surely that points towards the set up, like I said, rather than the individuals who have all played at higher levels in seasons past?
Huh?

If rose is really leaving we should try hard for digne. They would accept something like 25M plus rose I think. And Danny goes north to join the night watch like he so much wants
