    Player Watch - Tanguy Ndombele

    Not to mention it's literally July 2nd, it's so early. Full preseason and all. Always loved Levy, he's done so much for us, and it's good to see he's (and we) finally able to play with the big boys in the transfer market too.

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 9th June 2019

    Strange example for Isco, I don't think he ever really became the player he was supposed to be. No end product and he's 27 already, I don't really mind missing him. Chris and Dele have been great for us. As for GLS, he might turn out good but if we can keep Eriksen that would be my top...

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 9th June 2019

    Maybe if we would have gotten a proper fee for Toby. For 25m I'd definitely rather to have him stay another year, he's worth much more than that to us. Him and Jan are too good and could be absolutely crucial in achieving our goals. Will also give Sanchez extra time to grow into the role, for...

    Jack Clarke

    Isn't that exactly what Lucas is? (and he played that part pretty successfully).

    Player watch: Toby Alderweireld

    I think he's open to leave to certain clubs but so far nobody seems to be going for him. United links seems to have died down - I think he was more of a Mourinho target, and Ole is targeting younger players. They went from chasing Perisic and Willian to signing 21 years old championship wingers...

    Donny Van De Beek

    Probably an option on the shortlist if we don't get Ndombele. Don't think we'll move for him until Ndombele future is solved.

    Player Watch - Tanguy Ndombele

    We haven't really been linked seriously to an RB, but we've seen plenty of Trippier-to-Italy links and I don't see us selling him without getting a replacement. Unless Poch really trusts in KWP, which so far didn't seem to be the case. As for Lo Celso, it says "Eriksen replacement" all over it...

    Player Watch - Tanguy Ndombele

    No, that's not how it works. Aulas knows how great NDombele is, he knows he's in high demand, do you really think he'll sell this early? It's not even half of June yet. Of course he's going to bide his time, try to drum up interest, that's negotiating. Whatever we offer, he'll ask for more. I'm...

    Youri Tielemans

    The January deal was a loan with no option to buy, that would be basically raising Monaco's youth for them. That wouldn't have been a good deal for us. He flopped in France, and it was a huge surprise he hit the ground running so quickly in the PL. Can't fault Levy/Poch for passing this one up...

    Bruno Fernandes

    Normally players can't just 'walk away for contracts' (otherwise every transfer would be much simpler), but this situation is different. The players have been physically attacked and harmed at their workplace. Their president (and boss) doesn't seem to do much to protect them, and there's a...

    So guys and gals, what do we know about Juventus?

    This is the scariest part. Tactically, I'm sure we can break them down, and I don't necessarily think they have a stronger team. I'd say the lineups are fairly equal, actually we have advantage in several positions. What they do have over us, is experience and know-how on winning those games...

    So guys and gals, what do we know about Juventus?

    Yeah they're in insane form. We face quite a challenge.

    Player Watch Player Watch - Lucas Moura

    I remember when the Lloris transfer was announced, an hour or two before the deadline at midnight. And then did immediately released an interview of him, in full Spurs kit, at full daylight. It was signed for hours. Sometimes I think Levy just likes this deadline day drama.

    Player Watch Player Watch - Lucas Moura

    Did they? ITKs said Malcolm, then Moura. Nobody said we're going for both. As for Lamela - apparently there's interest from Italy, no sign we're willing to sell though. If he can get fit, I think Poch will want to keep him,

    Erik Lamela

    If he can get back to full fitness, we absolutely need him in the squad. Our only creative player other than Eriksen. Would rather keep him and get one of Malcolm/Moura than sell him and get both. If he's fit of course.

    Player Watch Player Watch - Lucas Moura

    Maybe in home games against park buses. This midfield will get destroyed against most quality opponents. Also, if Toby's fit no way he's not starting. As good as Sanchez is, in a back 4 he's not breaking the Belgian connection.

    Malcom

    I'll be very surprised if we're going for both him and Moura. Seems like a 'one or another' type of thing.

    Player Watch Player Watch - Lucas Moura

    -PSG heavily overpayed for him in the first place in order to get him. He was a target for many clubs, like Man United. PSG at the time wasn't as attractive as others. They needed to outbid everyone to get him. -Now PSG really need to sell because of FFP, so we're getting him for a lower price...

    Player Watch Player Watch - Lucas Moura

    Doesn't make any sense. If Poch doesn't want him, why would Levy bother to waste his time meeting him at the first place? Surely if he met with Levy, Poch is open to the idea. If the thing collapsed, it was probably because of his salary demands.

    No way he gets this before Kane and a bunch of other players get new contracts. We won't let him be our highest earner. And even then, I can't see us paying him that much.
