Not really how transfers really work.Has it been officially confirmed bids have been accepted?

Aside from higher wages etc, i wouldn't be surprised if he chose Chelsea, with Hazard likely out the door he will be a guarantied starter there, here he would have to fight for his place once Son is back. If Grealish comes in, we will be over stocked for AM/WF's, essentially it will be 6 players fighting for 2 spots, assuming Eriksen will be a guarantied starter. Even if you discount Grealish, thats still 5 players fighting for two spots, and we all know Poch loves Alli leaving 4 players fighting for 1 spot. I realise there will be rotation, but even so, it might not be as attractive where as if you go to Chelsea you might well be given the LWF position from the get go. Be interesting how this plays out.
He’s just getting our badge tattooed on him ( he’s is actually getting a tattoo atm )
Is his ITK not from knowing Bentley or Redknapp?Alright. FWIW I'm almost certain he used to be a member on here but got perma-banned for one reason or another.
Once in the 90s- never againSo us having Champions League football doesn't matter now then? Okay!
Fuck a duck
Even if Chelsea sell hazard they still have Willian and Pedro I would argue he would have it just as hard there
Genuinely laughed out loud to this.Once in the 90s- never again

You from Cornwall too?If he goes to Chelsea he could end up at LB like Victor Moses did on the other side. Be that excites him.
So you’re saying you’ve never seen reports before such as...’bid from [club] accepted for [player], personal terms to be discussed’ ?Not really how transfers really work.
Or perhaps Chelsea dropped interest in Golovin after they got Jorginho... Sarri has been interviewed talking about how much he hates the transfer window and the fees involved, etc.If a player like Golovin has picked Monaco over apparent Chelsea interest then there's really only one choice to make for Zaha.
Willian plays on the right so he wouldnt be competing with him. He would with Pedro but he has become a utility player of sorts. Also Willian is 29 and Pedro is 30, beyond those two (excluding Hazard) the only other wing option they have is Lucas Piazon (who will no doubt go out on loan again). They are in dier need for more wing options especially as Sarri plays a very intensive 433. We have far more attacking midfield/ wing forward options then Chelsea and i don't see Zaha going straight into our starting 11 where as i can see that happening at Chelsea. Even if Hazard stays, which i very much doubt, they are still in desperate need. I just dont see how our need is the same as theirs no matter how much we might like to sign him.Even if Chelsea sell hazard they still have Willian and Pedro I would argue he would have it just as hard there

There’s been a lot of talk over this summer of switching to a 4-3-3, and that’s certainly how we lined up against Roma. Assuming Alli lines up in a deeper role with Eriksen, we’d have Son, Lucas, Lamela and Zaha for two wide forward spots. Sounds perfect to me!Aside from higher wages etc, i wouldn't be surprised if he chose Chelsea, with Hazard likely out the door he will be a guarantied starter there, here he would have to fight for his place once Son is back.

Could very well be possible. I'd just have a hard time buying that Monaco could beat out Chelsea on a player if they really wanted him.Fair enough. Don't pay attention to any other club but Spurs during the summer really so didn't see this.
Their history of stock piling leads me to think they missed out though
Really those 4 plus Kane alternating through 3 spots. 5 for 3 spots is a good number. Although I'm still reserved in my excitement of Dele being a full time CM. The top looks great, I just would still have questions about the middle of the field.There’s been a lot of talk over this summer of switching to a 4-3-3, and that’s certainly how we lined up against Roma.
