Tottenham accelerate Liverpool transfer hijack with talks underway over stunning £86m double coup

[mawspurs]

Among the most pressing issues new Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou must address this summer is the club’s leaky defence. Spurs conceded an eye-watering 63 goals in the Premier League last season. That troubling mark was sixth-worst in the competition.

After reading the article and seeing the quoted prices I'd like to welcome Clement Lenglet back to Tottenham

If Levy reads that article Lenglet must be in the building.

I'd rather read our transfer business was signed and sealed than speculation as you also expect other teams to hijack.

It's becoming all to familar in the final hour better wages and now the offer of European football stops it happening.

Our history with transfers also shows we stumble to nail those who are seemingly through the door eg. Hazard, Willian, Petit and Fernandez then have a habit of buying flops Rebrov, Postiga, Le Celso and Ndombele - the latter may have one final throw of the dice don't hold your breath though.

New owners would be our best transfer to save the wool being pulled over our eyes half the time from this current establishment.

Hazard ,Willian and Petit are ancient history. What about Romero, Kulusevski, Bentancur, Udogie, Richarlison and Bissouma?

History has a habit of repeating itself and what I'm saying is don't get your hopes up that the players we want don't make it through the door saw that recently with Raya who was a top goalkeeper last year. Those players in the past went on to help win their teams trophies.

Lets see if the players you mention Romero - usually guaranteed a yellow card and can be a bit rash although our best defender, Kulusevski - not a standout last year has potential, Bentancur - brilliant before injured his loss didn't help season, Udogie - yet unproven, Richarlison - best forget last season and Bissouma - injury hit then not best managed by Conte gel because after last year's debacle as fans we deserve so much better.

Hope Ange gets us on the front foot from the off without the shackles from before lets see.

Lo Celso actually had a decent for us under Mourinho, once he'd overcome his hip injury and had a chance to settle into a new country / league. A lot of people on SC thought he was our best player in June-July, after the COVID break (a period of good form for the whole team, so he wasn't just the best of a bad bunch).
Then Mourinho got us playing deeper / more defensively for the 2020-21 season and this clearly didn't go well for him, as he wasn't suited to any of the roles in that system. Being put in a deep two-man midfield alongside Sissoko / Winks, in a team that sat back and played on the counter, was never going to go well.

As I say it stems back to the manager maybe Le Celso gets a chance because as it stands he still remains a flop not necessarily his fault but through management decisions.

The key is if Ange sees what he likes in training then fits to his system then simple he plays. However we are now very congested in the middle so sacrifices will likely happen as well and unfortunately he could be a candidate.
