Player Watch Player Watch - Lucas Moura

[rossdapep]

Is Sissoko the one we expect to be replaced in the CL squad, if Moura comes?

Probably Foyth

Gazza? Do we need 3 keepers? Can't we give the 3rd to a youth keeper

 

[JUSTINSIGNAL]

He's much much better than Townsend. My concern is giving up on Malcom.

I don't think they are linked. JJ said we were after 3 players.

RMC saying Moura met with Levy in London today.

So we can expect negotiations to begin in a week?

Possibly now Wanyama is back

RMC saying Moura met with Levy in London today.

Edit - they're also saying that his salary proved to be a sticking point today.

If ever 2 sentences went hand in hand it's "met with Levy" and "money was a sticking point".

Wouldn't read into that much with the other reports coming out today, all about negotiation

Properly on board with this one.

In truth I thought we never stood a chance of getting him. He was one of the top attacking talents in the World when PSG signed him, but I guess they’re two-a-penny at that club now and he can’t get a game.

HIs star has fallen but he’s still young and the talent is still there. He just needs a fresh start and a coach who can get his confidence back and make him work hard at getting his career back on track. Because it won’t happen without the sort of hard work Poch demands as a minimum.

If he went to a club like Chelsea or United he’d not be pushed as hard, and he’d end up bouncing around Europe for 7-8 years before retiring.

It just seems to make sense, for him and for us. If we can get it done though, what a signing this would be for Spurs.

Clever from the club, too, because there are far worse players going for a lot more money at the moment.

Can't wait for Chelsea to announce him.

Hope so. Although Herc said we would only go for both if Moura was VDV style offer we can't refuse, didn't he?

I'd consider something in the 30M range that type of offer, in this current climate.

One other thing - the press we are often reminded are 1-2 days behind what is actually happening ... Food for thought.

 

[fortworthspur]

Let's hope so.



I actually liked (and still like) Paulinho and am happy that he's doing well since leaving us but it was just never a good fit.

I dont know, the free kick where he and Ade parted like the Red Sea to allow a goal was right up there. And I agree, Paulinho was better than he was given credit for around here.

As announced by FF, Lucas was in London today. Already returned to Paris. RDV with Lévy. Paris demands 25 million now # rmclive

Interestingly said we wouldn't get all three though so a possibility that Malcom and Lucas are alternatives.

So Lucas was here on Tuesday?

Don't think the "this current climate" phrase applies to deals like this. These uber rich clubs looking to offload players don't ask for crazy prices. Real Madrid offloaded James at a reasonable fee, the Barca players are going for reasonable amounts, Serge, etc.

Just my 2 cents.

Monday*

25? That's nothing.

Im guessing Luke Amos or Tashan Oakley-Boothe. Or maybe Alfie Whiteman.
