Spurs need somebody to replace Janssen as their back up CF.
In general they need more depth all over though. Could do with another AM, another CM, another CB. It's not that they're short but their squad isn't that deep and the best way to improve is to increase competition for places.

Still not convinced Francis is a United fan. I still remember the Celta game.

By Grizzled Cola Go To PostRead an article on how good Pogba is today, reminded me of how good he isThen you realise Fellaini is even better.
By Perfect Blue Go To PostSome battle for Dijk it seems.
By Killer7 Go To PostThen you realise Fellaini is even better.I think it is entirely possible he gets as many minutes, or close to, as he got this season next
By Hitch Go To PostAlready starting to feel like we're going to miss out on all our first choice signingsKell surpree
We're not even an hour into June.
When we miss out on Van Dijk it won't be because we're incompetent at selling our club it'll be because 180k for a center back is way out of the ordinary and not in our range. We're probably offering 80k or so to him.
Edit: looks like the real figure is above

By Grizzled Cola Go To PostDoes this worry you at all? This trend?
The way I see it there are two trends
One is setting our sights on players that we were never going to sign in the first place. (Van Dijk, Mkhitaryan)
The other is targeting players we can sign and failing to convince them one way or another (Salah, Alli).
It doesn't worry me so much, it's annoying but not worrisome. We'll have other options to choose from, Van Dijk isn't the only good center half in Europe.

Hard to imagine my thought process in that situation. Instinct says "no" though, the most sought after players are either very settled at Liverpool (Coutinho, Firmino) or new signings who still want time to develop (Mané, Matip)
Is Van Dijk really that good? I know the prices are silly regardless but everyone wants him it seems.
Didn't realise Matip is only 25. For some reason I thought he was in his 30s. That could end up being a pretty good signing for Liverpool. Didn't see much of him but I can't remember him ever looking terrible which, these days, means you're a solid defender.

By Vivalapizza Go To PostIs Van Dijk really that good?I've been asking this question nonstop and still don't seem to have a satisfactory answer lol. I'm skeptical buying from another PL team unless it's a truly extraordinary player (like Kante).
Van Dijk ticks all the boxes for what you want from a centreback, but I'm still not sold on him for some reason. Just doesn't feel like a position where it's necessary to spend 50m on one player to me, though that may well be the going rate for every decent centreback this window.
Would much rather have Laporte, Marquinhos, Jimenez, or Bonucci for what Van Dijk is rumoured to be going for.
Do you guys not watch replays of games when your club isn't involved?
Van Dijk checks more than a few boxes. He's dominant in the air and he commands attention at both end because he scores goals too. He's young and will only get better. Needs to hit the weights to put on muscle mass.
£50m is obviously crazy money. But that's how it goes. If he were in Spain it would be £30m max.

He's crazy strong and fast, good positionally, scores goals, responsible in possession, doesn't make mistakes, I think most people see a long future ahead for him which is why the price being touted is so high.

This silly bastard just might have found a permanent position within a team as a wingback but would rather field off-season questions stirring shit up.
Unless he's trying to get sold.
By GQman2121 Go To Postno shit.

- Liverpool has been rumored to be interested.
- He wants to play in centre mid
- Like Gerrard

He has been saying this since he was at Southampton.

Bought COD Zombies DLC last week because it's my guilty pleasure, 25 Brexits. The servers/net code is so bad I've been able to play 1 (one) game online with other players. 😒

Inches? I have no idea what that is so I just took the biggect numbers. Could be mms for all I know.
By rossonero Go To PostI'm very clear that that's terrifying. Are they still the clear favourites to win?
Realistically, yes.
If people aged 18-24 actually went out and voted, then perhaps not. But that will never happen.
By Laboured Go To PostRealistically, yes.I don't get how people can be too lazy to vote you don't even have to turn up to a polling station you can just do it by post.
