Bailey Posted June 21, 2022 Report Share Posted June 21, 2022 10 hours ago, Btay said: I think he suits the type of football Frank wants us to play but also type of football we needed to play end of last season. Someone who can recycle possession & pick a pass but also get stuck in and work. Would be no worse than what we already have although that’s not saying much. He feels like the type of player I imagine Frank would want (based on his time at Chelsea and Derby) but not the type of player he would want based on the end of last season. Im not sure he would have the robustness to get that stuck in week in week out in the Premier League. £30m for no worse isn't what we need though. That type of money needs to be a big improvement and the type of work our midfield were doing at the end of last season can be purchased much, much cheaper.

My thoughts too. On the surface 30M seems a lot, but it just depends on the structure of the deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I get your point but he doesn’t mind getting stuck in a bit and working hard. In terms of technical ability he is much better than Doucoure & Allan. Massive upgrade on Gomes. Probably similar to someone like Gallagher. Works hard and will put in a shift but more polished skills in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dunlopp9987 Posted July 18, 2022 Report Share Posted July 18, 2022 Really bummed about this one. Think he's vastly underrated, would've made our midfield instantly better and provided much better cover at LB than Niels Fosse Captain, Romey 1878, chicagoblue and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Summer window, every team starts afresh. Early days of old Lego-hair they were calling for him to be sacked and now look at them Possibly a moot point, but if you have people in the club who can sell the project to a player, then anything is possible. And money always talks too. Just an opinion tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, but Spurs have been battling against success for years though, with Arsenal is a more recent thing. Spursey is actually an adjective in North London.
