    Goalies are a different breed. Friedel etc.

    BBC saying Sheffield Utd possible...? 🤷‍♂️

    Tottenham 'reject loan bid for Eric Dier from Burnley' Dier determined to fight for his place

    Only one year on his contract. Surplus to our needs. He only cost us £4mn. Unless we can get him included in a swap, with a club he wants to sign up with, a loan is the best option to get him off the non-HG list. Good servant of the club. Deserves respect. But Ange seems to think we need a...

    Deadline Day Wish List

    Apparently Taremi's move to AC has collapsed. Prof saying a long shot non-HG is on the cards. Worth a gamble?

    Deadline Day Wish List

    That's essentially my list too. All depends on outs. Part of me wonders if we could do a Jonathan David / Ndombele deal.

    Player Watch: Davinson Sanchez

    Then a loan makes the most sense. I don't dislike Dier. He's played a decent part in our team. But I do worry he isn't suited any more. For me, Sanchez is the better suited. But it also matters what their mindset over playing for Spurs is.

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 30th August

    Surely the plan is to strengthen if we can? We're not dealing with inanimate objects, or NPCs. The number of variables around fees, agents, our club's needs, other club's needs is staggering. It's more asking to buying a house with a long chain, but for each permutation of player and position...

    Might be open to last minute loans as part of the deal, with us subsidising wages.

    ‘Best case scenario’: Spurs want Dier sold, but he doesn’t want to go

    Doubtful we get anything except a loan fee and his wages off the books, if he decided the bench isn't for him. Perhaps he thinks he'll get one more chance due to cups/ injuries?

    Player Watch: Davinson Sanchez

    He may well have wanted to move on before the shift in manager. If you were scapegoated by fans for the tactical issues caused by big name ego managers, then you might want a fresh start. May still. But we all wanted Kane to feel it was going to be okay with Ange.

    The question then is, why they were below par? If Ange can use a player we already have, rejuvenation is better than replacement. If they want to play, have the skill and Ange trusts them, then that's good enough. Isn't the point of a new manager to get different results with the squad we...

    Daniel Levy has lost his shields at Tottenham – more than ever, it is his club

    Paratici got suspended/resigned and Munn got delayed. Combined with Lewis issues, it's a good job we have an experienced Chairman, who does have the clubs interest at heart. Levy may not be everyone's cup of tea, but imho his efforts tend to the positive side of the ledger.

    Player Watch - Tanguy Ndombele

    As long as his attitude is away from the squad, I don't care if we have to pay his wages on loan. Shame. He was a talent. If the Jonathan David rumours hold any water, perhaps a cheap loan for Lille as a sweetener?

    As it should be. The furore over Kane overshadowed the fact he had lost heart. I only want players determined to play for spurs. Even if that means we avoid big names.
