You're joking, right?I'd take Frimpong and Toure to replace Parker and Gallas. We should also try to get Walcott (wages permitting) as I'm not convinced any bigger teams than us will be sniffing around him.
You're joking, right?
The only thing he can do is Frimpong people. Yes, that's a thing.
Not enthusiastic about Kolo Toure either, and I'm sure Walcott will sign a new deal eventually once he realises that he won't have it better anywhere else than where he is now.
I wouldn't take anybody from there bar Hangeland, and that's only if we suddenly find ourselves short of centre-backs.
I think BMJ will come in for THudd,... but just to pick 2?..Fulham are gonna be fucked
Frimpong was quoted few years ago something along the lines of he would only leave Arsenal if he was dragged out (not sure exact terminology) he's Arsenal through and through and wouldn't come to Spurs.All fair points as I would rather be buying Holtby, Willian, Leandro and Moutinho etc which is what I expect us to do (or at least try!), my view is based on the squad as it currently is.
If it was to stay as it is I think Frimpong is worth a punt if he's free.
There aren't many players who are happy to run around and kick people anymore and if AVB can just control him a bit I think he'd be worth replacing Parker who does a more controlled version of what Frimpong does. Sandro, Frimpong, and Dembele in a middle 3 would be able to compete away to City/Stoke etc.
He'd only be coming in as 4th or 5th choice so not much of a gamble.
Toure is at the end of his career but he's probably 3 or 4 years younger than Gallas so would be a like-for-like replacement. And, again, he would be rotated as 4th/5th choice.
And I agree with you about Walcott but you have to be in it to win it.
As a result we could replace two ageing players with a much younger one and a slightly younger one with no real financial implication.
Puncheon looks a good player too - great back up for Lennon
I think Puncheon looks a good player too.it's hard to tell if he would be good enough for us but for free,worth a chance.
