I wouldn't go for Fonte simply because it could reduce the chances of us getting Schneiderlin. I mean we're not Liverpool FFS...

I'd be ok passing on Fonte simply as he is about to enter the twilight of his career.....he is obviously fully capable of functioning in Poch's system, but would rather we chase someone a bit younger that can grow into the system than someone who is tailing off, plus i could have sworn Fonte was looking locked to go to Cardiff.

Eric Dier?

So transfer business so far looking like:-

Out: Sigurdsson, Livermore, Falque - £22m
In: Davies, Vorm, Dier - £18m

Decent business and still around £4m net gain (£10m+ if you included Defoe from February)

Should have it well within us to buy Schneiderlin, a first choice CB and a LW IMO, especially with further sales to come...

@SpursOfficial: We are delighted to announce that Danny Rose has committed his future to the Club with the signing of a new five-year contract.

First response on twitter feed is:
@Yonny1975: @SpursOfficial oh fuck! No!

Danny Rose 5 year contract.......
Was hoping the next new contract would be Vertonghen as he already said he's signing one.

The reaction to it on twitter is embarrassing. Spurs fans on twitter should be ashamed of themselves.

I find it to be good news. Provides good competition to davies, and was very good before injury. If he has a good year next year, we could probably sell him for a healthy amount.

just means we get top dollar when we sell. so effectively 6 wine gums instead of 5.

Rose signing is good news. Means we won't be forced to play Vertonghen or Naughton out of position simply due to one injury.

We need two specialist left backs.

The Danny Rose contract means fuck all. He will throw his toys out the pram and demand to move once he loses his spot to Davies.

Guess talks with Poch or something must have changed the circumstances from the ITK of him kicking up a fuss/being unhappy and wanting out..........
