Aymeric Laporte

[SpursSince1980]

Great bump, thanks a lot

Well said.

 

[Bing]

His pace concerns me a tad but would still probably prefer him to VDV or Tapsoba....there's been nothing on this in weeks so presumably it's dead which is a shame. I think him and one on VDV / Tapsoba would've been sensible business.

You wouldn't sign Tapsoba and Laporte as neither is coming to sit on the bench. Tapsoba makes more sense as our top option and younger. If we can't get him and go for VdV then Laporte works well since VdV is more raw and maybe not ready to start yet. You could also maybe say Tosin if not VdV although age wise is OK he still seems a bit raw too. So Tapsoba or Laporte along with VdV or Tosin might make sense.

The Laporte situation is still there too and this could become an option further down . City still have got their house in order .

Now you can bump it

 

[Teddy Klinsmann]

Josko Gvardiol all but done to City now. Might open the door for this to progress?

 

[cjbyid]

One to watch alright.

Side note: That's some signing by city.

City - unstoppable

Will be interesting to see if they let Laporte go or not

 

[Hoddle&Waddle]

Probably in the minority but I dont want this guy.

Injury prone and how many players his age take a step down in Club and actually do well?

 

[mil1lion]

Yet another top player to City, how very boring. As for Laporte I'm OK with him but only if we fail on Tapsoba.

 

[GioW]

Let's be honest Laporte would be a huge coup. He's class.

I wonder whether he'll head back to Spain though

Not same age, but Jesus and Zinchenko are otherwise perfect examples of players doing well.

my best case is Tapsoba and Laporte, or one of them plus VdV

EDIT: which means we'll get Maguire and Lenglet

Deliberate choice of words?

Haven’t Barcelona always wanted him. He could end up there

only reason I dont agree with this is because it is the thinking we as spurs fans have always had. When we start acting like a big club and having the quality this would give us on the bench and be able to implement some sort of rotation without a drop in quality is when things will have really changed

Imagine having Stones Dias Laporte Ake Gvardiol Akanji as CB options

Imagine having Stones Dias Laporte Ake Gvardiol Akanji as CB options

my point exactly

 

[Wig]

Imagine having Stones Dias Laporte Ake Gvardiol Akanji as CB options

Not too dissimilar to our Romero, Rodon, Davies, Tanganga, Dier and Sanchez
