Finally, some movement.

Did prunes do the trick?

 

[Huddlebone]

I believe the agreement was there all the time. We have just been waiting to see if there will be extra money from the Kane deal, and now we are going for the cheaper option, when its more likely that Kane stays.

 

[SpursSince1980]

Light the beacons of gondor, it's a miracle.

Post of the summer. By a country mile.

OR....we're keeping Kane as BM won't pay up....Kane also says if we improve he'll resign....VDV was the easiest deal to get done first...we still sign Taps should we agree a fee!!

Resign?! It's not got that bad surely

 

[SpursSince1980]

I choose to be an infant and will ignore WLB’s post!
In Romano I will blindly believe!

 

[lobob8]

I'm probably in the minority here but I'd be happy with:

In: VdV, Lenglet, Phillips
Out: Sanchez, Rodon, Tanganga
Not out: Kane

 

[Col_M]

Hold with this .

He says Hold, he means SET!!

 

[Tyler24durden]

For clarity, WLB isn’t saying it’s not happening, just that he has been in a meeting and has not had an update his end.

And we are waiting patiently for him to update his end.

 

[Albertbarich]

Wonder if city agreeing for Gvardiol can impact this

Laporte is now third choice for that LCB role and I can't see anywhere obvious he has to go

I hear you, but I think that looks a little lacking in net gain in defence - the area we need to strengthen most

 

[spursfan77]

I think we should be looking to bring a PL experienced centre back in too. Big responsibility on this lad to come in and fly from the start.

Yeh that is my concern, is this guy ready now as that is what we need.

I'd be really disappointed and worried

A young kid who will need work along with a cheap Barca reject who has already shown he isn't good enough.

Totally agree with this - even Tosin would be a reasonable start on this

VDV and Laporte would be nice.

Maybe. Although WLB did say yesterday that Tapsoba was our number one choice for CB and that wasn’t going to change whether Kane left or not.

VDV and Laporte would be solid signings if we can’t get Tapsoba tbf

 

[jimmyh]

VDV, Sutola and Phillips would do and probably cost as much as Tapsoba would on his own.
