Player Watch - Tanguy Ndombele

Maybe I just overrate our players and manager but I don’t look at our squad and worry about us scoring goals.

My hunch is we’d get Skrinar in for 50k a week less than Ndom, plus Foyth/Aurier outgoings leaves us ~150k a week and around 25-30m to play with. In this market, you’d hope we could go and find a “creative” player with that kind of money to use.

That’s presuming we do a flat trade and don’t convince Inter to pay-up a bit, which Levy may pull-off as Conte doesn’t fancy Skrinar in his back 3 for some reason... Skrinar/Sanchez has all the hallmarks of a Jose pace/power combo for a few years to come. I’d be buzzing.

I actually think a swap for Depay makes more sense than Skriniar.

Depay takes care of our back up striker problem, but can also play in any of the 3 places behind the striker in a 4231.

I guess NDombele's wages would be a problem. But regardless, it makes way more sense to me for us to swap him for a striker, than a CB. It's going to be difficult to find a decent striker to be back up or competition for Kane. I think we are much better off buying a forward who can play multiple positions, including striker.

Inter, in 8 sul mercato. E coi soldi caccia a Ndombélé e Kanté

Skriniar per il centrocampista del Tottenham ipotesi concreta. I soldi per il francese del Chelsea da Brozovic o dagli esuberi Nainggolan, Joao Mario, Perisic e Dalbert. In uscita anche Vecino e Godin

www.gazzetta.it

1. Inter are putting 8 players for sale
2. Bring back Perisic from Bayern loan and look for 15m with his sale. Sell Brozovic for 30m. Sell Dalbert,Nainggolan, Vecino, Joao Mario Godin. Use these cash to bring Kante. Conte wants Kante and Chelsea are quoting 50m for him. My Opinion: If Inter buy Kante, Chelsea might use it for Rice.
3. Quoted the Perfect Exchange : Skriniar for Ndombele is strong possibility: Skriniar boasts many admirers around Europe and if José Mourinho decides to turn the interest into concrete negotiations, Inter would then aim to make the most of the sale of the Slovak. Meeting in London did not go as everyone expected and now Ndombélé is a jewel with a suitcase ready. A chess match seems to be taking place between Tottenham and Inter: no one wants to take the first step, but everyone knows that an exchange would make coaches and balance sheets happy.

If I read the comments from Inter fans, they are not happy at with Conte and the decisions at club to sell as much as 8. They feel Skriniar should not be sold at all, just because Conte doesnt want him for his style. Also, they aren't happy with Eriksen. Ndombele no comment-think they will take to him if they sign him.

Overall, it seems Inter is the one pushing Skriniar to us as a swap. And Jose/Levy isnt playing ball yet. But if we want to get rid of Ndombele, Inter is the most likeliest destination. Gut feeling is there will be solution and moves will happen

I've never seen Roots, but thanks to your post, I now understand an Only Fools and Horses joke Del Boy made about Denzel.
