Ndombele granted was training separately, but there's no way none of Gil Dele and GLC would have had decent minutes until the rest of the season. Gil was a regular sub whilst they were all still here, let alone as part of the smaller squad we're going to have now.
One Kane injury and we've got Berwijn up top and only 3 options behind him. One or two injuries to our 4 CMs and we no longer have the option to play a 3-5-2 and will have U18s on the bench. Definitely still a player short imo.
Excuse my ignorance but how do you get notifications from twitter like that?My phone notifications went like this:
Official Spurs twitter - Bentancur signs!
Official Spurs twitch - reaction to our new signing, Kulusevski
Can’t even get our social media in order, never change Spurs.
I can think of it another way come the Summer. The excuse will be that we didn’t reach CL football as we had a paper thin squad and therefore we have no money to spendThing is you have to remember how long it takes sometimes to get players out. If you don't want them and there's a solid offer that the player is willing to accept sometimes it's for the best. If he'd stayed it might have been for another full year of paying his wages.
Think of it this way come the Summer the excuse has now gone that we need to clear squad space before we can buy.
You can't recall outside a transfer window iircdo any of the loans have a recall clause? in case we get a injury crisis
Bale and Reggie?Any wise guys know the last time we signed 2 players on the same day?
Now we've saved some wages we need to go all out for some of these free transfers whilst we might have advantages over other clubs needing to shift players. Dybala, Kessie, Brozovic, Sule etc. Get them all in!All things considered its pretty good.
But a little surprised we let that many go...
Summer going to be pivotal.
it there any good RWB available in this window?Although glad with the signings, the big glaring omission is pivotal to contes play and that’s a rwb - 5/10 for incomings for me, 8/10 outgoings
Kulusevski now has become a pivotal signing for us. He likes to play no10 but been playing wide. I wonder, if he is bought to be the no10 or the advanced midfielder in the midfield of 3. Paratici has certainly gone all-in on players he knows. If it comes off , he comes of like a genius - else, he is a goner.
Lets hope for club sake, the 2 players click straight away

It is but where is a smart 6 month loan to cover up front? I guess at a push Dier can play in the midfield but we only have Scarlett up front to cover Kane.I'm satisfied that Conte is being backed. How many times have we been in situations where a manager wants players out and the club fails to shift them, holding out for unrealistic fees that the market won't bear? Conte made his assessment of the squad and we got rid of those he decided he wanted out. Much work to be done, but that's a big step in the right direction.
I think one thing being missed a little here is at least these two players will know each other very well. Settling in might be a bit easier in this respect.The 2 juve guys have to hit the ground running - without champions league next season its going to be v hard to have a good summer window
