Mandzuckic is a free agent.
So is Fernando Llorente

Going back to Pochettino’s reign, he insisted on any player coming in being versatile, and Hitchen and his predecessors were remitted as such in their searches. Pochettino wanted a small squad but ended up with a bloated squad. Mourinho added to it as Levy and Hitchen failed to offload players well overdue their use by date.Can't believe some of you gave him just a better than passing grade. Just on the job for just 2 months and he had signed for us young players of massive potentials and talents. Moving out players have always been a pitfall for us and the rebuild is long overdue yet he has still manage to do that quite substantially in just 2 months. 2 months!
A complete facelift is never possible in one window but we can't deny that the look of the squad has already markedly evolved from the ones we have seen in the last 4-6 years.
No strikers and playmaker coming in is my biggest concern but there are alot of factors into play for that and discussions on such will never end until the next window comes again. But my point is he's definitely deserved a grade of at least 8 out 10 - 8.5 for being able to work within the micro-managing and meddling Levy as well as losing so much sleep.
He comes across so well: the passion is genuine and infectious, while he clearly has a long term vision for the squad. I get the feeling he's our best hope of breaking back into the top 4 - we simply can't compete with the fees and wages of City, United and Chelsea, so buying young and smart is the way to go.

Paratici has been given a precise remit by Levy and has delivered as much of it as he was able since arriving. He won’t stop now either. He will be scanning the one year contracts, the free releases etc for a quick start on availability and willingness to come in January or next summer.
Spurs still have versatility in abundance, particularly up front, with players able to play across the line and able to cover where gaps appear from injury or suspension.
Not really, I can’t imagine the players we brought in were on massive wages while we’ve got rid of Bale £300k, lamella £80k, Mousa £90k, Toby £150k, aurier £80k, together with the other loan players we had last year and Hart etc. That’s a huge cut in salaryEPL 2020 Payroll Wages Tracker

According to this site (I don't know exactly how they come about these figures and they are estimates)
Estimated total salary:
20/21: £129,175,200
21/22: £78,735,200
That is an almost 40% total wage drop, which sounds a bit excessive.
Whilst I don't doubt that our wage bill has declined, I don't think the total figures are too reliable.EPL 2020 Payroll Wages Tracker

A good video from him today. The kind of content we should have from the club.
