GF says 3 lined up. Where does this leave Sancho? Or is it Barkley who misses out?
It clearly doesn't say 3. I can't read.

Dunno about the others but I haven't been counting Foyth or Sancho in anything I have been posting because IMO they are not going to be first team players.

I assumed Foyth was one of the ducks just because its gone on for a while and it now seems to be done.

My personal opinion is that there will be 2 coming in that will challenge for first team spots in Barkley and Aurier,. I really wouldn't be holding out hope of an in his prime top class forward type though as things stand, but that doesn't mean we are not trying to fill a spot that we know needs filling. :)

I agree. Those will be the 2 and i'm satisfied with that.

I expect we will get the usual big name/surprise signing link who we've no chance of getting as it happens every summer.

Odd one? Could be special? I don't think this is Martial. Whomever it is, I sincerely hope we pull it off. Would be great to have a little extra to get the team excited.

Why is that I keep thinking it might be DiMaria on loan?

Di Maria is probably on ridiculous wages.

Has anyone worked out how many spaces we have in our squad?

I make it 23 current players (for Europe, not the league), dropping to 22 if Wimmer leaves, as seems to be set to happen. There's all sorts of permutations based around national/club grown players, but not really the right place to discuss!

How 'top secret' can they really be?

All we've got to do is check which Ligue 1 clubs have players named N'Doodoo, N'Askwho, etc

Looking forward to seeing that 'odd duck' in a Spurs shirt. Hope it's not Pato though...
Clever. That will go over most heads. I only know because I'm learning

I have to admit I am not sure how to view the last few days, because as has been said many times, we have seen this so many times before. The reason though I am optimistic is because I have been told from the get-go that this is how this window would pan out, and things do still look to be in place.

"The odd one will be special if it comes off"

The special one ....

Is there a sneaky little link to Utd in here?

Or is it me still hoping on Martial ?

As long as he's special I don't mind who it is :)

Martial seems very much contingent on Rose in my opinion.

As much as I'd like him, I cannot see any reason why Utd would sell him to us at this point in time - money is no use to them.
