Lamela (21) Eriksen (21) Chadli (23)
Soldado (28)

If Soldado is still as good as he is now, imagine that team in a couple of years...

Where has the Eriksen noise come from?

Why is everyone so confident? I don't recall seeing any ITK or articles suggesting this is anywhere near done?

Add Sandro in there! And Townsend could be class in 2 years too. So much young talent.

Lufti, my Teutonic friend, I don't think that's being naive at all. I have high hopes for young Lewis this season and I think we could see a rather energetic, skillful and explosive attack with those 3 behind Soldado. Lots of options for AVB this year, it's looking very bright indeed!


Fingers crossed!

Overmars himself has admitted we have been given permission to speak to Eriksen. Most papers saying fee agreed

The Danish midfielder Christian Eriksen admits he would be interested in a move to Tottenham Hotspur.
The 21-year-old has rejected interest from Russia and would jump at the chance to be reunited with his former Ajax team-mate Jan Vertonghen at Spurs should they make an approach.
"Tottenham are a great club," the Ajax midfielder told Danish newspaper BT. "I know from Vertonghen that it is a good club which is interesting. But there has not been any contact.
"I do not know if I am going to leave Ajax. We'll find out in two weeks. There are to my knowledge no negotiations right now either with a new club or Ajax. If there is a good approach (from another club), I see as an opportunity to try something new, but if nothing comes, I do not mind staying."

Two weeks huh? Well this WAS two weeks ago! Guardian article, 13AUG

I'm kinda hoping, perhaps naively, that they'll both be in the team - Holtby, Eriksen and Lamela behind Soldado. Then some combination of the beasts behind them
Certain games at home why not. Hell, Verts even pushing up to be the 2nd holding CM alongside etc. Squeeze the hell of them sitting deep, suffocate them.

Teams have shown that playing multiple "natural #10s" in a 3 behind the striker can work. I'd argue Holtby even did it with Draxler at Schalke.
It's scary to think that Holtby started in front of Draxler at Schalke for a while, when settled Holtby could be absolute class.

I'm a huge fan of Holtby. Absolutely huge (Granted, not as big as Lufti) and if Siggy has to move on to get him time, I'm okay with that (and I'm a fan of Siggy, too).

Huh? They played different positions while they were both at the club. Draxler has only moved into the CAM position since Holtby left because we need someone to fill that position. It made sense to play Draxler at LAM while Holtby was there so that we could get both of them in the team - it wasn't a case of Holtby taking his position. Agree with the last statement though :)
