The irony when Rose leaves because we didn't make big signings and Martial swaps in
Good news! If this is true then it wasn't done in-house.There is another Breezer-100% med fine while ago!
Not itk bashing here but 7 signings in less than 2 weeks (Barkley, foyth, aurier, Sancho, sess, gazza, martial) is surely a tough ask
Props to Danny boy if he gets it done
Wasn't in houseGood news! If this is true then it wasn't done in-house.
Can't discount Tippier's involvement post January and whilst Rose is arguably superior to Davies, the fact remains our title bid was not derailed because of Rose's absence/Davies' prolonged involvement.
Gaining Martial gives our attack another dimension - one we don't have currently whilst we can nurture a prodigious talent in Sessegnon.
Our team overall will be better if what has been alluded to with potential incomings comes to fruition.
Yea, sounds a tad optimistic
Understand the frustration but it's our business model for now.I'd rather we got a good attacking left back for now. We've just spent 10 years developing rose, only to possibly sell him the minute he hits his prime.
Remember that as much as today's ITK has been positive, until things are done and being tweeted by @SpursOfficial, there's plenty of space between cup and lip for a traditional Spurs-style slip. Historically we are nothing if not experts at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, so despite the good vibes keep it uppermost in mind that we're not over the line with any of these deals yet!

This is 100% correct. We played very well down the stretch without Rose and with Trippier playing against the toughest opponents. Indeed, if any change could have turned our season into one with a Premier League title, it would have been with greater depth in the attacking third (to be honest, we were so close to winning it, three goals gives us the title, a few more lucky bounces would have done it). Rose is not the difference-maker in a title-winning side. Martial may very well be.Can't discount Tippier's involvement post January and whilst Rose is arguably superior to Davies, the fact remains our title bid was not derailed because of Rose's absence/Davies' prolonged involvement.

I'd be willing to trade Rose out to get Martial, mainly because unlike most it seems I think Davies is good enough as he proved again last season. Danny's knee and attitude means the risk, providing we do get Sessegnon in as well, is worth taking. Can't see the trade costing us more than 10m, the amount we are actually up to date.
Sessegnon and Barkley would cost another 50m, which we could cover by selling Wimmer, Sissoko, Janssen and GKN.
To be honest I'd be prepared to lose rose if it meant
Sessegon
Barkley
Aurier
Martial
Sancho
All coming in as previous itk has suggested would to be honest his injury record is not great, it's great to see all this positive news on transfers for once great to see the excitement on here
